Police misconduct and brutality are rarely experienced by most people in America. But for people of color, it’s often a horrifying reality that our government and communities are struggling with every day. When there is trouble in communities of color, they still call the police, but there is no guarantee that officers will arrive prepared to “serve and protect”.
When the police go too far and break the law, they should be held accountable. With the recent events around the country that have placed police work in the spotlight, citizens now know that they have witnessed police officers violate civil rights and abuse citizens for decades. We at THE HOPSON FIRM, have known that for decades and have prosecuted cases against police for decades. Our results show that we are the best at what we do.

Even if you have a background or a police encounter has led to being charged with a crime, the police still have to respect your rights. They will often create bogus cases to cover up the fact they have abused citizens. We will assist you in getting the best representation to dismiss the bogus case while we proceed against the police in your civil rights action.
