You trust the police to uphold the law—not to break it. But what happens when the very people who are supposed to protect you decide to abuse their power? At Will Ferguson & Associates, we represent victims of police misconduct in Albuquerque, including excessive force, wrongful arrest, and civil rights violations. These are not simple misunderstandings—they are serious offenses that can leave lifelong trauma.
If you’ve been harmed during a police interaction, your future depends on what you do next. The city and its police department are not going to admit fault without a fight. That’s where we come in. Our seasoned personal injury attorneys spent decades handling high-stakes injury cases, and police misconduct lawsuits are no exception. Our firm doesn’t settle for easy wins—we go for justice.

ToggleYou’re not just suing an officer. You’re going up against a system backed by government resources and legal teams trained to deny your claims. But this isn’t our first time in battle. We know the tactics they use—and we know how to dismantle them.
Police misconduct comes in many forms. It may involve physical abuse during an arrest, psychological intimidation, racial profiling, or illegal searches and seizures. We’ve seen it all. The most important step is documenting what happened as soon as possible and contacting an attorney who can take immediate legal action on your behalf. If you wait too long, evidence disappears and deadlines pass. That’s exactly what the department is hoping for.
At Will Ferguson & Associates, we treat every case like it’s going to trial. That’s why we developed TrialMetrix, our in-house courtroom laboratory where we rehearse real cases with mock juries and camera analysis. It’s how we sharpen our arguments—and it’s why so many local firms come to us when they need top-tier litigation support.
Police misconduct isn’t always limited to one rogue officer: responsibility can extend to multiple levels of command and even the city itself. In your case, the liable parties might include the arresting officer, the police department, training supervisors, or the municipality of Albuquerque.
We handle both state civil claims and federal Section 1983 lawsuits, which are designed to hold public officials accountable for violating constitutional rights. These cases are complex and aggressively defended—but we don’t back down. With more than 50 years of legal experience, our team knows how to navigate these battles and deliver results.
You’ve already been hurt. Don’t let the legal system injure you again. Police misconduct claims are about more than money—they’re about holding power accountable. If you’re ready to fight, we’re ready to lead.
If you want attorneys who prepare like prosecutors and argue like warriors, Will Ferguson & Associates is the firm for you. We don’t bluff; we build real cases, backed by evidence and experience. Contact us today for a free, confidential consultation.
