Albuquerque Police Misconduct Attorney
One of the most important ways police officers protect and serve their communities is by respecting the constitutional rights of those suspected or accused of committing crimes. All too often, however, police officers, prison guards, sheriff's deputies, and others abuse their power and violate the rights of innocent citizens.
If you have been the victim of criminal conduct by police officers, please contact the police misconduct attorneys of Kennedy Law in Albuquerque, New Mexico, today for a free consultation and case evaluation.

One of our founding attorneys, Joseph P. Kennedy, presents seminars on police misconduct to police oversight groups and other attorneys throughout the state.
A sloppy investigation or poor police work can result in an innocent person being arrested for a serious felony. A felony charge can ruin your reputation and limit your future employment options, even if the charges are later dropped.
In many of our police misconduct cases, the victims aren't focused on receiving a huge monetary settlement. They want the police officer to admit wrongdoing and apologize. They want to expose a rogue cop. They want to see the system change so that others won't have to endure the same type of abuse or injury. We find pursuing monetary damages through a lawsuit is one of the best ways to effect a change in the system.
Because we pursue police misconduct cases as a violation of your civil rights, we seek to recover our attorney fees and compensation from the defendant.
To discuss the specifics of your police misconduct case, please contact our firm today to arrange a free consultation.
