Las Vegas Personal Injury Attorney

Excessive Force

The LVPD (Las Vegas Police Department) has the daunting task of keeping the Las Vegas streets safe. Security personnel at casinos, hotels, restaurants and nightclubs have the same task of keeping guests, customers and patrons safe from harm. However, law enforcement and security personnel can sometimes go too far. Excessive force describes a case where one or more of these individuals uses an inappropriate amount of force when detaining an individual or handling a situation that arises.

A Las Vegas personal injury attorney at the De Castroverde Law Group may be able to help you if you or someone you know has been the victim of excessive force by the LVPD or private security personnel. You may actually be able to file a lawsuit against the police department or the casino or hotel that the security officer works for. A lawyer can seek financial compensation for the injuries you have suffered, including for: medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and possibly more.

LVPD and Security Personnel – Excessive Force Injuries

We believe that although the police and security need to do their job to keep innocent people safe, they should not use excessive force when handling any sort of situation. Excessive force can lead to serious injuries or even death. These people should be trained and should fully understand exactly what amount of force is necessary to handle a conflict, make an arrest or escort a patron from the premises. They should be held responsible for wrongful conduct in this regard.  

Contacting an attorney at our firm is one of the most important things you can do at this point. You will need an experienced attorney to review police reports, interview witnesses and evaluate physical evidence and your injuries in order to build a strong case on your behalf. The De Castroverde Law Group takes on cases throughout Las Vegas, Nevada and we offer a free case evaluation to get you started.
