The police patrol in their cars and on the streets of New York City and the surrounding boroughs to protect and defend citizens. When they become overzealous in their duties and hurt people, they should be held accountable. If you have been hurt by police brutality, our firm stands ready to advocate aggressively for your interest in receiving maximum financial compensation.

But no matter where police brutality occurs, the attorneys at Pazer, Epstein & Jaffe, P.C. have the experience and insight to litigate these cases effectively, toward the goal of obtaining the compensation our clients deserve. The cases can be unsettling and many people just want to move on from it and take no action. If you have been a victim of police brutality, we encourage you to seek legal help immediately. You have only 90 days from the day of the injury to bring a claim.

Many of our clients have had their rights violated through wrongful arrest and malicious prosecution. Those cases can go to state or federal court, where it helps to have an attorney who is experienced in multiple venues and knowledgeable about the various timelines involved.

Civil rights must be protected and not violated. Many police brutality and wrongful arrest cases involve those who have a different ethnic background than the police officer. Violation of civil rights has no place in police work, whether the arrest is justified or not. Our experience in this area helps us represent clients who have had their most basic civil rights violated.

We realize that you may prefer to forget the incident never happened. But we want you to know that we can help you hold law enforcement accountable.
