What Is Considered Police Brutality?
While many people think of police brutality cases as cases that involve extreme violence that is not always the case. Police brutality may occur in any instance where an officer uses excessive or unnecessary force while exercising their duties. When these actions cause injuries to victims, it can be extremely concerning and require legal action.
Some common issues involved in these cases include:
- Shootings
- The use of tasers
- Unacceptable force or restraint
- Sprays and other chemicals that cause burns
In many situations, when police overstep their boundaries, it can lead to a civil lawsuit that results in monetary damages for the victims. If you believe you have been a victim of police brutality, do not hesitate to reach out to our civil litigation attorneys in New York.
