Representing Victims of Police Brutality
Being arrested for a criminal offense does not give the police the authority to use excessive or unnecessary physical force during or after an arrest. And while Amnesty International proclaims that police brutality in the United States is at epidemic levels, pursuing these cases is difficult. "Problem officers" often file false reports claiming that any injuries resulted from resisting arrest or that injuries were self inflicted in a jail cell. In addition, prosecutors tend to give more credibility to police officers than criminal suspects, and officers tend to stick to the blue code of silence.
Former Prosecutor With 25 Years in Civil and Criminal Practice
Mallon and Tranger personally handles all our police brutality cases. Certified in Civil Trial Law, he has more than 25 years of experience handling criminal defense matters. In addition, he is a former investigator and prosecutor in the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office. He has successfully prosecuted police brutality cases against officers in cities throughout Ocean County and Monmouth County, including seven excessive force cases in the city of Seaside.
Charges Involving Police Brutality and Civil Remedies
In addition to suffering abuse at the hands of an officer, victims are also slapped with additional charges, often to justify the offense. If you were recently charged with obstruction of justice, our attorneys will aggressively defend your underlying criminal charges and seek civil compensation for your injuries. These charges may involve or include:
- Resisting arrest
- Assaulting an officer
- Obstruction of justice
