When you hire us to represent you, our lawyers will go to work immediately investigating your incident and building your case. We’ll gather police reports, incident reports, body camera footage, and witness statements. We will also collect medical records, photographs, and any other evidence related to the incident. Depending on the case’s complexity, our attorneys may consult with expert witnesses, such as forensic experts or medical professionals, to provide insight and testimony on specific aspects of the case.

Our lawyers will also assess law enforcement agency policies and procedures to determine if the officers’ actions violated their department’s guidelines. Discrepancies between the officers’ actions and established policies can be a powerful argument in your case.

If excessive force is alleged, our police misconduct attorneys scrutinize the level of force used by the Orange County officers and whether it was reasonable and necessary. This analysis often involves considering factors such as the threat level and the potential harm to the victim.
