Officer-Involved Accident And Injury

It is often a shock for an ordinary person going about his or her business in traffic to be involved in a crash with the other driver being a law enforcement officer. Who would expect to be struck in traffic by a police car, highway patrol car, border patrol car or sheriff’s vehicle? How do you go about pursuing compensation when the other driver is employed by a government body?

In fact, motor vehicle accidents involving a police officer as one of the drivers can present special challenges for the injured who seek compensation afterward. You may wonder whether you can easily get a completely objective report on how the accident happened. Liability and insurance issues may be complex.

At Harris Powers & Cunningham in Phoenix, our attorneys have experience representing people injured in officer-involved car accidents. Our clients, usually civilians, often express a desire to promote safe officer driving as well as recover compensation for injuries and expenses. Since 1981, our law firm has successfully advocated for people injured in accidents involving complicating factors such as police officer involvement in a crash.
