Police officers risk their lives every day to protect our communities. Unfortunately, they can be injured in the line of duty due to the negligence of others or unsafe working conditions. General Municipal Law §205-e provides protection to police officers who are injured in the line of duty due to the negligence of their employer or other parties.
At our plaintiffs personal injury law firm, we understand the unique challenges faced by police officers who are injured in the line of duty. Our team of experienced attorneys is committed to fighting for the rights of injured police officers and their families.
Police officer injuries can be serious and can include gunshot wounds, stab wounds, head injuries, and other serious injuries. In addition to physical injuries, police officers may also suffer from emotional trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other mental health conditions as a result of their experiences on the job.
Our team will work tirelessly to investigate the accident, gather evidence, and build a strong case on your behalf. We will also handle all aspects of the legal process, including negotiations with your employer or representation in court, to ensure that you receive the compensation and benefits you are entitled to under General Municipal Law §205-e.
