Police Misconduct

Connecticut Police Misconduct Lawyers

Police Brutality, Illegal Search and Seizure Attorneys

At the Law Offices of Norm Pattis, our lawyers have great regard and respect for law enforcement officers. Occasionally, however, an officer or group of officers will abuse their powers and harm people in their custody or others they were trained to protect. Our justice system and laws are clear about our civil rights against illegal search and seizure and police brutality.

If you were the victim of police brutality,

you need an advocate,

Contact the Norm Pattis law firm.

While police brutality is often a matter for criminal prosecution, the victims also have another remedy – a civil lawsuit that seeks damages from the officers and the responsible government organization (the city, county, or state). The Connecticut police misconduct lawyers at the Law Offices of Norm Pattis have successfully tried police misconduct cases in civil lawsuits – from relatively minor cases to those with awards in the millions. Among the questions a lawsuit answers are:

  • Was the force used against a suspect necessary?
  • Did the police officer have a good reason to stop a person on a sidewalk or driving a car or anywhere else?
  • Did officers have good cause to search a home or business?
  • Was unnecessary and harmful force used to control a group of people?
  • The ultimate question we ask the jury is: Are you comfortable with what was done in your name as a citizen and taxpayer?

If you have been the victim of police brutality or an illegal search, the police misconduct lawyers at the Law Offices of Norm Pattis want to hear your story. Our attorneys have the experience and determination to vigorously fight lawsuits that involve civil rights. Civil rights trial attorney Norm Pattis has tried more than 100 cases to verdict. For examples of our trial and settlement experiences, see our Representative Cases.
