Unlawful Arrests

Dealing With Unlawful, Wrongful Arrests

It happens too often. The police, in their zeal to bust drug dealers, for example, will do a "street sweep" and bring in people who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and — all too often — be the wrong color. When the police use street sweeps and racial profiling, that is a violation of constitutionally guaranteed civil rights.

If you have been the victim of wrongful arrest, if the police had no cause to stop you, search you or arrest you -- talk to an attorney who understands your rights and is committed to protecting those rights. Call the Greenberg & Greenberg law firm in New York City.

With backgrounds as Legal Aid lawyers, we champion your rights.

When police violate civil rights, we all lose. That is why we take the side of people who have been deprived of their fundamental civil rights. Tell us about your situation. We have the skills and determination to investigate and litigate unlawful arrest cases.

  • Police brutality, excessive force, assault: Have you or a loved one been the victim of police brutality? Did the police use their power to bully or physically harm you?
  • Street sweeps: Were you caught up in a street sweep even though you had done nothing wrong and the police had no reason to suspect you of wrongdoing?
  • Wrongful arrest in an inadequate investigation: Were you arrested because the police had gotten the wrong address or the wrong name? Was your arrest the result of inadequate investigation or even sloppy recordkeeping?
  • Warrantless searches: Did the police search you, your car, or your home without a proper warrant?

The police do not have the right to pull you over or stop you on the street without probable cause. Tell a civil rights lawyer about what happened to you. Our law firm has taken on police and prosecutors who have deprived New York citizens of their fundamental rights. At Greenberg & Greenberg, we believe in the Constitution and in everyone's right to conduct him or herself unfettered by wrongful governmental intervention.

Trust the lawyers who have always had their hearts in the right place -- on the side of the people. If you want an attorney who truly cares about your rights and your family's peace of mind, contact us for an appointment at the Greenberg & Greenberg law firm.
