Police Misconduct Attorney Portland & Woodburn

Protecting the Rights of Victims of Police Brutality

When Those in Power Abuse It, We Stand With You

Law enforcement officers have a duty to protect and serve — not to inflict unnecessary harm. When police abuse their power, the consequences can be devastating, both physically and emotionally. If you or a loved one has been the victim of police brutality, Pickett Dummigan Weingart is here to help. Our police misconduct attorneys in Portland and Woodburn are experienced in representing victims of excessive force, including cases involving:

Unjustified shootings or taser use
Physical beatings or unlawful use of force
Injuries during wrongful arrests
Excessive force during protests or public demonstrations
Deaths caused by police misconduct

Contact us to learn if you have a viable case. We will listen carefully, explain your rights, and guide you through the next steps.

Unjustified Shootings and Taser Use

When officers use deadly or dangerous force without cause, the consequences can be tragic. We investigate thoroughly to hold those responsible accountable.

Physical Assault and Beatings

Victims often suffer broken bones, head injuries, or internal trauma from excessive force. We work with medical experts to document the full extent of your injuries.

Injuries During Wrongful Arrests

An arrest does not justify the use of brutal or excessive physical force. We fight for the rights of individuals harmed during improper detentions and arrests.

Protest-Related Police Misconduct

Public demonstrations are a fundamental right. If you were hurt while exercising your right to protest, our police misconduct attorneys in Portland and Woodburn are ready to stand up for you and pursue justice.

The Right Assault Victim Attorney Makes All the Difference

We have strong relationships with investigators, medical experts, and civil rights advocates. Our police misconduct attorneys are respected throughout Oregon for our skill, tenacity, and commitment to justice. If your rights were violated, we’ll fight to hold law enforcement accountable and seek the compensation you deserve.
