David Sweeney

My mission is to improve best practices in policing by offering expert witness and police consultation services. I have helped both plaintiff and defense attorneys with an honest evaluation of the facts of the case so that you know the strengths and weaknesses. In this way, we can determine together how I can best help. I am a 34-year veteran large-department police leader. I spent 21 years as a sergeant and lieutenant, responsible for supervising, training and reviewing topics such as police pursuits, use of force, de-escalation, police supervision, less lethal weapons, active shooter, SWAT, crowd control, legal standards and more. I have a Master of Public Policy degree from Oregon State University. I teach police leaders across the country as adjunct faculty for Northwestern University at the School of Police Staff and Command. I have experience assisting with expert reviews of policing best practices for pursuits, use of force, security, and a variety of legal standards for police. I will provide my honest, unbiased opinion of the case.
