New Orleans, Louisiana, Police Brutality Lawyer
Our founding attorney, Glenn C. McGovern, built much of his reputation for success on helping the victims of police brutality. Over three decades of legal practice we have helped people who were injured by the police due to improper police training, poor screening and inadequate supervision of New Orleans police officers.
One of our most well-known cases is the $4.9 million dollar settlement we helped obtain on behalf of a surgeon who as arrested and improperly handcuffed, resulting in hand injuries to the doctor. At the law office of Glenn C. McGovern, we have also represented clients in a wide range of police brutality matters:
- Sexual abuse by police officers
- Physical abuse / excessive use of force
- Handcuffing resulting in nerve injury (handcuffing neuropathy)
- Improper restraint resulting in serious injury and death
- Children injured by the police
Police Brutality Causes Serious Injuries and Wrongful Death
Our law firm continues to stand up for our clients' federal rights by taking forceful legal action against police corruption and misconduct. We have seen how seriously and permanently injured people can become when police use batons, (nightsticks), asps, handcuffs and weapons incorrectly. These instruments require regular retraining. When that training and certification are not given, citizens are at risk. Glenn C. McGovern is a frequent lecturer to other attorneys on proving police equipment injuries and when improper police procedures are misused. Many of these injuries are a result of improper training and lack of current retraining and testing and not necessarily malice on the part of the officer.
