Police Misconduct & Wrongful Death – $5.5M Verdict

In the case of Rosario v. Union City Police Department, our firm secured a $5.5 million verdict for the wrongful death and suffering of a 63-year-old man who died in police custody. The jury found that officers had no probable cause to arrest him in his own home and were negligent in providing medical attention when he suffered a severe asthma attack. His tragic death, which occurred outside his home, led to a fight for justice that ended in a landmark verdict for his family.
