Police Misconduct

The ubiquity of cell phone technology social media has made it even easier for citizens to document evidence of police misconduct. While most officers follow the law, there are far too many officers in the system who abuse their powers.

Examples of misconduct include but are not limited to:

  • Excessive or unreasonable use of force
  • Sexual coercion
  • Wrongful arrest
  • A police shooting that violates police department policy

What To Do If You Face Police Harassment

There are steps that you can take to protect your civil rights after harassment by police:

  • Note all the details of the incident. The longer the time gap between your complaint and the incident, the more likely it is that you’ll miss out on important details.
  • Take down the contact information and names of witnesses at the scene.
  • Discuss your options for a civil lawsuit with an attorney. Speak to a lawyer even if you were not arrested at the scene. You also may want to report the police misconduct, but first discuss the situation with a Los Angeles police misconduct lawyer at our firm.

    Our Clients' Success Stories

    • "I will most certainly come to you if & when I need an attorney."
      Dear Mr. Effres, I would like to express my deep appreciation for assisting me when I called you regarding the problem I had with a dental group I had been going to. Unfortunately my only solution will be small claims court. Here is a case where the dentist said he was qualified to do root canals and missed the canal and went into my gum even though he took 3 x-rays during the procedure, and very casually said, “sometimes things like this will happen.” I wish to thank you again for your advice and you can be assured I will most certainly come to you if & when I need an attorney. Your thoughtfulness meant a lot! by H. M.

    • "Justice was done."
      Dear Mr. Effres, I was the juror that took your card and assured you I’d call, as time is such a premium in our lives, dropping you a line is much easier. Thank you for the offer of our suggestions and/or comments. What impressed me the most and what seemed the be a determining factor was the diligence in which you presented the evidence, your depth of conviction for Maria’s case was deeply felt. Your calmness in dealing with the judge with the study in the strength of the human character! The only suggestion I would make (and this is coming from a color consultant point of view) would be to wear dark suits, white shirt and a striking tie (LOVE THE SCALE OF JUSTICE TIE), other than that – change nothing. Please pass on my best wishes to Maria even though the money could not begin to suffice for her injury the quality of her life may be enhanced, they are a beautiful family and were represented by a compassionate, thorough, competent lawyer. Justice was done. God bless you. by K. R.

    • "Thanks to you, you made a bad topsy-turvy affair a very easy ordeal."
      Dear Mr. Effres, We just once again wanted to thank you so very much, for your fine (I should say “great”) handling of Anne’s case. We have never had to “go to court,” or sue anyone in the past and really had no idea where to start with any of the details. Thanks to you, you made a bad topsy-turvy affair a very easy ordeal on our behalf. And my husband and I really appreciate the time and effort you gave the case. I hope we never have to do anything like this again, but should something like this happen you can be sure of hearing from us again – Thank you very, very much. With warmest regards
      - F & D
