Sandusky Civil Rights Lawyers
Excessive Force, False Arrests & Other Violations
Did an on-duty and in-uniform police officer use excessive force while arresting you or a family member? Were you arrested under no legal pretense? Have law enforcement officers threatened you to try to get you to move, close your business, or even provoke you into violence?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, your constitutional rights have been violated – and you need to seek legal recourse to set things right. Murray & Murray proudly offers our legal representation to men and women from all walks of life who have been abused by the police and other government officials.
Our civil rights violation attorneys in Sandusky take every case to heart because we know we are not just representing you, but we are also fighting for the rights of people like you throughout Ohio and the United States. The outcome of your case could change the law nationwide, and we never back down when so much is on the line.
Civil Rights Cases & Resolutions
When your constitutionally protected rights are violated, 42 U.S.C. Section 1983 allows you to use civil action in demand of justice and fair recompense. Some of these cases involve the misuse of power by government officials, agents, and employees while on duty and acting within the scope of their employment but not in accordance with the law. Most civil rights violation cases that our law firm handles involve brutality, abuse, and privacy violations carried out by police officers, though.
The outcome of a successful civil rights violation case can include:
- Restitutions paid for your needless hardship
- Compensation paid for related damages, like lost wages or medical bills
- Termination of defendant or removal from their agency
- Updates to the law to prevent similar occurrences in the future
