A mother and her two daughters were handcuffed and detained for nearly an hour in a parking lot while doing absolutely nothing wrong. No probable cause. No matching description. No apology. In this After Action Review, trial lawyers Craig Peters, Joseph May, and Brian Gearinger walk us through how they built and won the $11 million Loggervale civil rights case - a case centered not on violence, but dignity, narrative clarity, and truth. The team breaks down everything: wrongful detention, trial prep, biased policing, jury impact, Monell claims, qualified immunity, and post-trial strategy. This is a rare look at how a team of committed lawyers turned a quiet injustice into a national message - and got the county to pay, to the penny.
