法律范围 & 宪法保护

Law enforcement officers are sworn to uphold the law and only use reasonable physical force when strictly necessary. When officers exceed their constitutional authority—through gratuitous strikes, baton blows, knee-on-neck restraints, or weapon misuse—victims suffer catastrophic physical and psychological injuries. We represent individuals and families in federal § 1983 civil rights actions and California Bane Act claims to hold offending officers and municipalities accountable.
