S.D. et al. v. City of Hemet (2024): $6,750,000 for family of man shot and killed by police
$995,000 for shooting death of man armed with knife.
$750,000 for unarmed man beaten by police during client’s detention.
$200,000 for excessive force used during client’s detention.
Putting together an aggressive case, we were able to substantiate that the officers used excessive force, resulting in a $875,000 settlement for our client.
Our client was attacked by a canine who pursued him and held him for several minutes before officers released the bite. This resulted in nerve damage in our client's arm. The settlement was for $300,000.
This 1.1 million dollar settlement resulted after a police shooting. Officers shot our unarmed client in the back at the end of a vehicle chase.
