THE PROBLEM
Excessive force is an epidemic in our prisons and jails. The California Office of Inspector General’s 2017 report conceded that guards used excessive force in nearly half of all instances where force was used! Additionally, medical neglect is now the unfortunate norm in our prisons and very few attorneys are fighting for inmates in these cases. In response we have formed Prison Legal Network, PC.
OUR TEAM OF LAWYERS
We are attorneys with over 50 years combined experience and over $25 million recovered for our clients. This past year we obtained both a $575,000 and a $400,000 settlement for two inmates at Tehachapi Prison where the involved guards were also fired for their excessive force and attempted cover-up of!
WHO WE CAN HELP
While we wish that we could help all inmates, at this time we are only considering cases with extreme excessive force or extreme medical negligence with ALL of the following factors:
1) guards used excessive force AFTER restraining the inmate or extreme medical negligence occurred
2) broken bones or other more serious injuries were suffered as a result
3) a timely 602 Form was filed
4) other witnesses besides the inmate affected can confirm the allegations
