If you or a loved one has suffered injury or abuse at the hands of a police officer or were injured in jail at the hands of another inmate or guard, your civil rights may have been violated and you are entitled to compensation. Cases bought against a police department or public entity are different than ordinary tort claims and must be handled by experienced civil rights attorneys. The lawyers at DiDonato and Burke take police and jail abuse cases seriously and have the experience to make you whole again.
Abuse of power is wrong, and some of the most egregious abuses are those committed by law enforcement acting unlawfully. There are fundamental rights protected by law… the right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures, the right to be free from excessive force and the right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment.
DiDonato & Burke take police and jail abuse cases seriously.
Your loved one deserves to be treated humanly. Tell us about the situation.
“I was falsely accused by police of shooting at them and spent three years in jail. Thomas Burke took on my case after two other lawyers told me I should plead guilty. Mr. Burke not only proved that I was innocent, he helped me sue those police and I won millions of dollars from the City.”
