Philadelphia Police & Government Misconduct Attorneys on Your Side
Winning Police Brutality & Government Misconduct Lawyer Based in Philadelphia
We look to our police departments and government officials to defend us as individuals, as well as serve and protect our communities. We expect them to hold criminals and lawbreakers accountable for their choices and to abide by the law themselves. Unfortunately, this does not always happen and government and police misconduct occur. At Stampone O’Brien Dilsheimer Holloway, we hold these agencies accountable and ensure their victims are compensated for these injustices. Moreover, we work to stop corruption at its core and encourage the creation of policies that prevent misconduct from occurring.
What is Police and Government Misconduct?
Government and police misconduct can take many forms, and it can occur at all different levels of power. Here are a few ways we’ve seen misconduct occur at the hands of the people we’re supposed to trust:
- Excessive force: Police brutality, including lethal force, fabricated accounts, and improper training or supervision can all lead to actions that cause harm. We work with the victims and victim’s families to ensure the individuals are brought to justice and the department implements strategies to prevent it from happening again.
- Wrongful convictions: Whether it’s perpetrated by a police department or a prosecution team, wrongful convictions don’t just cause harm to an individual, they cause harm to their families and communities. We investigate wrongful convictions and ensure all agencies are held responsible.
- Improper training/supervision: All departments within our government have standards that have to be upheld when it comes to training and supervision. Failure to adhere to these standards and enforce these policies is a violation of your right as a citizen.
- Jail suicide: Even incarcerated individuals have rights. When these rights are violated through mistreatment, abuse, or neglect, and a prisoner committs suicide, their loved ones deserve justice. We review these cases and help to determine if misconduct occurred or contributed.
