State and local government agencies affect all aspects of our lives. We and our children are entitled to safe and secure schools and playgrounds.

Proving liability in playground and school injury cases can be complex. Generally, the city must be notified of the intent to file a lawsuit within 90 days of the event, by filing a notice of claim. Other procedural requirements must be complied with or your claim may be barred.

Police Brutality, Misconduct, and False Arrest

One of the most serious types of municipal liability claims involves police brutality and misconduct. Police misconduct can take on many forms. Excessive force, false arrest, improper search and seizure, racial profiling, and the denial of medical care are some of the common types of police misconduct. Each of these may be viewed as a civil rights violation. Our lawyers have the experience necessary to hold law enforcement officers and agencies responsible for their acts of misconduct.
