Excessive Force

Victim of excessive police force in New York City? Contact us

Police officers in New York City and other jurisdictions receive extensive training regarding how to safely subdue a suspect without using excessive force. Law enforcement officials receive such training since they interact with the public on a regular basis in highly stressful situations.

Unfortunately, some police officers fail to follow the rules of engagement when interacting with the public. Instead of exhibiting caution and restraint, some overzealous officers use excessive force and cause serious bodily harm to many innocent individuals.

When such incidents occur, victims' civil rights have often been violated. As a result, injury victims and their families can pursue financial compensation for their injuries. And if your loved one died as a result of excessive force by police, you may be able to pursue a wrongful death claim against the police department.
