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 am very pleased that you kept me informed at each step of this process."
      Dear Mr. Effres: Thank you for all of your work on my behalf regarding the wrongful death of my mother in the parking lot of the Burbank mall. This was a difficult and complex case in that there were several entities that had to be dealt with simultaneously. To make matters worse, none of the parties were inclined to move forward in an effort to reach a resolution. Thanks to your persistence, patience and skillful negotiation a very favorable settlement was subsequently reached with all parties satisfied and in full agreement. I am very pleased that you kept me informed at each step of this process and thankful to have you as my attorney in this matter. Yours truly by L. W.

    • "They did an absolutely fantastic job and obtained a stunning settlement for my mom."
      I'm an attorney. My mom was seriously injured in a slip-and-fall accident. Steve and Justin represented my mom. They did an absolutely fantastic job and obtained a stunning settlement for my mom. And they're both wonderful human beings. They, and their staff, treated my mom with kindness and respect. I cannot sing their praises enough!

    • "Throughout the entire process I truly felt like I had someone on my side, and that Justin truly cared about my best interest."
      Justin Effres was my attorney. He came to my home on a Saturday in San Bernardino to discuss my case with me. Prior to deciding to go with Effres & Associates I had interviewed several other Law Offices. However out of everyone I talked to Justin seemed the most knowledgeable, and more importantly sincere about helping me with my case. Justin also assured me that if I had any questions or concerns, that I would be dealing directly with him, not an assistant. Justin held 100% to his word. Throughout the entire process I truly felt like I had someone on my side, and that Justin truly cared about my best interest. Thank you so much Justin.
