Attorneys in Southeastern Michigan
Police Brutality ◊ False Arrest or Imprisonment ◊ Car Accidents ◊
Suits Against Municipalities
When your rights have been violated, especially when the wrongful acts were committed by a police or law enforcement officer, you want an experienced lawyer to protect your interests. Taking on law enforcement agencies or municipalities can be a daunting experience; many individuals employed by these agencies have immunity from most types of civil and criminal actions. You want an attorney who knows how to avoid the common traps, one who has successfully helped others in similar situations.
At Romano Law, in Southfield, we have a comprehensive understanding of issues related to police brutality, false arrest and false imprisonment. Since 1996, we have successfully handled hundreds of police misconduct cases in jurisdictions throughout southeastern Michigan. Our senior partner, Dan Romano, is often called on to act as an arbitrator in police misconduct cases, as well as motor vehicle accident claims. To schedule a free initial consultation, contact our office or call us toll-free at 888-479-0605.
Our Practice
We represent individuals in civil suits involving allegations of:
- Police brutality: We handle lawsuits to recover monetary damages for people who have been victims of excessive force by law enforcement officers, including beatings, shootings and wrongful death. We understand the defense of "qualified immunity" and know how to prevent that from keeping you from recovering damages.
- False arrest or false imprisonment: If you have been wrongfully detained or placed in custody without reasonable cause, we can help you recover monetary damages for false arrest or imprisonment.
- Personal injury caused by municipality negligence: If you have suffered personal injury because of the carelessness or negligence of a municipal employee, agency or entity, we can help you determine whether your claim will stand against the many different immunities that governmental bodies possess. We handle claims involving streets and sidewalks, government vehicles, public buildings, and gross negligence by municipal employees.
- Injuries suffered in motor vehicle accidents: We protect the rights of individuals who have been injured on the roadways in southeastern Michigan, in accidents caused by the careless or negligent acts of others.
We handle all cases on a contingent fee basis. We will only charge attorney fees if we are able to recover compensation for your losses.
