Police Misconduct
Most law enforcement officials are ethical and committed to protecting the rights of citizens. Their jobs are often difficult and life-threatening, and their days may become extraordinarily stressful in the blink of an eye. Still, most handle these demands admirably.
However, law enforcement officials are also given a significant amount of power and control over the people they serve. Occasionally, officials abuse this power, either inadvertently or purposely.
The financial, emotional, penal, and physical consequences of law enforcement misconduct can be devastating. Citizens place their trust in law enforcement, and the betrayal of that trust should be pursued and addressed with a swift and effective legal response.
The Atlanta police misconduct attorneys at Van Sant Law have considerable experience in assisting innocent victims who may have been injured as a result of police misconduct or brutality. We can help you pursue justice by seeking compensation for the violation of your rights.
How to Handle Police Misconduct in Georgia
If you encounter a police officer using excessive force, violating your rights, or engaging in other kinds of misconduct, you should take the following steps:
- Immediately obtain medical care.
- Document everything, particularly your injuries.
- Take photos as evidence of your condition.
- Call the Atlanta police misconduct lawyers at Van Sant Law right away.
- Identify any eyewitnesses and document their full names and contact information.
Unfortunately, victims of police abuse or brutality are often incarcerated before they can take action against the misconduct. If you are arrested, you are entitled to speak to an attorney. You should let your lawyer know about the misconduct as soon as possible.

"I highly recommend him as a personal injury attorney."
My attorney, David Van Sant and his law firm were outstanding in handling my personal injury case. I was out of work for a considerable amount of time due to an automobile accident and Mr. Van Sant and his entire team were always kind, professional, knowledgeable and especially available. This law firm did their absolute best to answer and return calls and at no time did I ever feel like just a number or stranger. My experience with Mr. Van Sant and his law firm (from beginning to end), were very positive as well as favorable.
