Secure Legal Representation First Prior to your first appointment, we ask that you do not file an Internal Affairs (IA) complaint with the police department. Their motivation in gathering information is far different from yours. You are looking for them to pursue an action against one of their peers. Their intention is to gather as much information as they can to diffuse the complaint. In addition, you will likely have been charged with a crime by them to justify their excessive actions. Filling out a report without the benefit of counsel could damage the case against you. Essentially, you are giving them advanced notice of legal action and the time to prepare their documents. Challenges to Overcome in Police Misconduct Cases When faced with a civil rights violation at the hands of a police officer, you want an attorney with trial experience you want a San Jose Police Brutality Lawyer. Unless the conduct by law enforcement was so egregious and your injuries were severe, your case will likely not settle and must proceed to trial. There are many obstacles to overcome, including the possibility of an appeal if you prevail and the inherent advantage that police officers have in legal settings. However, if your rights have been violated, they must be held responsible for their actions. By letting time lapse without filing a police misconduct lawsuit, law enforcement gets the wrong message.
