FAQ

If we decide to work together, we will guide you every step of the way. While each case varies, here is the typical process:

1. Contact us or schedule a consultation. You'll share more information about your situation, and we'll help you determine whether you need a lawyer and answer your questions. You can decide if you would like to work with us, and we can decide if your case is a good fit for our practice.

2. Case review. If we agree to move forward, we'll explain the next steps and what to expect. We'll talk about options for your case.

3. Legal action. Depending on your case, we might negotiate a settlement, file a lawsuit, or take other steps to get justice for you. We will fight to get the best possible outcome for your case, and you will have the power to make decisions about your case.

To learn more about the process or potential representation, contact us or schedule a free consultation.

We provide representation on a contingency basis. That means that you won't pay anything for your representation unless we achieve a favorable outcome in your case. Our payment is typically 30% of any successful settlement or award. 

If you'd like to know more about how contingency pricing works or other options for your case, contact us or schedule a free consultation.

Every case is different. The best way to determine whether you have a case is to contact us or schedule a free consultation. The below information can help you quickly determine if you might have a case.

Excessive Force - If a law enforcement officer used more force than was reasonably necessary against you or your loved one, you may have a case.

Unlawful Arrest - If a police officer arrested you or your loved one without probable cause or a valid warrant, you may have a case.

Unlawful Seizure - If law enforcement took or damaged your property without a legal basis or due process, you may have a case.

Denial of Medical Care - If prison officials knew you or another incarcerated person had a serious medical need and disregarded it, you may have a case.

In-Custody Suicide - If prison or jail officials were aware of your loved one's serious suicide risk and failed to prevent their suicide, you may have a case.

In most cases, you can start by doing the following:

Gather and save any documents you have that relate to the case, including medical records and police reports.

Gather and save any communications that relate to the case by saving, screenshotting, or downloading letters, emails, text messages, videos, photos, or audio files.

Write down as much information as you can remember about what happened. Sign and date every writing.

Write down the names and contact information of any witnesses.

If you have injuries, consider seeking medical assistance and retain all medical records.
