Ohio False Imprisonment Attorneys seeking justice for you
When someone unlawfully confines another against their will it gives rise to a claim for false imprisonment. Those that can be held liable for false imprisonment include hotel security officers, mall security employees, school security staff, police officers, bouncers at bars, and others. In some circumstances a false imprisonment is accompanied by force; however, force is not necessary for a false imprisonment claim to arise. False Imprisonment occurs when the person that is being confined has been threatened by force, or has reason to believe that force may be used.
At our Ohio Wrongful Imprisonment Law Firm, our lawyers seek to provide fair and just compensation to those who have been falsely imprisoned or detained by the police. Contact our Cleveland Wrongful Imprisonment Lawyers today.
Examples of Ohio Wrongful Imprisonment cases include the following:
- Being locked in a room at a retail store by a security guard under suspicion of shoplifting
- Being restrained to a hospital bed, or at a nursing home, against your will
- Being arrested, charged with a crime, jailed or convicted, based on false testimony or unlawful warrants
- Being a hostage
- Being a victim of a kidnapping
In false imprisonment cases, the liable party must be able to show that they did not have probable cause or reason to confine you, and the confinement must not be for an unreasonable amount of time. Further, employers of individuals that falsely imprison someone may also be held liable.
