Was your loved one shot and killed by police in Texas?

Our Law Firm represents numerous families in Texas with regards to police brutality cases. Although the law protects the police, our firm has been able to overcome the obstacles in "excessive force" litigation and successfully bring justice for the families of the victims.

Public officials acting within the scope of their official duties are shielded from civil liability by the doctrine of qualified immunity. Harlow v. Fitzgerald, 457 U.S. 800, 815-19 (1982). Qualified immunity “serves to shield a governmental official from civil liability for damages based upon performance of discretionary functions if the official’s acts were objectively reasonable in light of then clearly established law.” Thompson v. Upshur County, Tex., 245 F3d 447, 456 (5th Cir. 2001).

This is the law in Texas, and it makes it almost impossible to sue a cop; however, our San Antonio Lawyers have been successful in bringing this cases in several Federal District Courts.
