Civil lawyers
Has anyone used or know of good civil lawyers for excessive force by the police?

Personal injury lawyers are the ones with big billboards and skyscrapers downtown. They aren't hard to find.

I'm aware,but I'm not just going to pick one and say ok. I do my research and want reviews or experiences with lawyers. Just because they have a billboard, doesn't mean they are good. Thanks for your input tho.

Yes it was. Being thrown on the ground mouth starts bleeding, being tased 9 times while also being held down and have burns marks from the taser on your back is pretty wild when you weren't resisting and handcuffed. 🤷🏼♀️ It was a mental health crisis too. The mobile unit was there.
