Learn how to determine if you have a case for police brutality and excessive force, how much you could potentially get paid, and what you need to do to win your case in court. Excessive force is when the police use more force than necessary to make an arrest, and you can sue even if you're not suing for false arrest. The defendant officer's conduct is judged against what a reasonable officer would use under similar circumstances.In court, the jury will consider factors such as the severity of the crime committed, whether you posed a threat to the officer, the extent of your injuries, and whether you were resisting arrest. Evidence such as images or video of the interaction, body camera footage, and medical records can help you win your case. Damages in excessive force lawsuits can reach into the millions, depending on factors such as the severity and duration of your injuries and lost wages.While it is possible to sue without a lawyer, working with a civil rights lawyer may increase your chances of success!
