Large Damage, Major-Serious Injury and Death Cases

Police Brutality: My son was exercising visitation with his daughter; there were NO legal custody papers at the time. A sheriff deputy came to the house, told my son he had to give the child to the mother. Witnesses say my son didn't say a word but turned and walked back inside the house. As he turned to go back in the house the deputy grab him from behind, punched him 3 times, pushed his head onto a 4x4 post, threw him to the ground, handcuffed and arrested him.  I tried to get my son out of jail that night; I took 3 witnesses with me stating my son had done nothing wrong, he hadn’t even spoke a word. The jailer refused to release him until the next morning. I have pictures of some scratches and a black/blue eye. In the weeks that followed my son was charged with disorderly conduct which was later dismissed due to 'in the best interest of justice'. We file a complaint about the assault but the County Attorney did nothing with filing charges against the officer. Several months later the deputy was fired for aggressive behavior. Do we have a good case against the county? And how do we find a good attorney to take it?

Will the police conclusion of an accidental shooting preclude a civil action?

I was in a fight with a bouncer and arrested for assault and disorderly conduct. The assault was thrown out but now they're coming after me for restitution due to medical bills the 'victim' suffered, yet he was uninsured and didn't file a worker's comp claim. Am I responsible for this as it would've been covered under worker's comp in Iowa? How can pecuniary damages be determined if he didn't follow the victim's compensation fund's own criteria of being a source of last recourse to establish if I even owe a dime?
