Police Brutality can be devastating with long lasting psychological effects. Today on the television show, "Open", channel 67, I discussed your ability to bring an action against the City of NY and the NYPD for "excessive force". Most cases involving police brutallity lead to claims for "false arrest", "malicious prosecution" and "false imprisonment". Each claim has its own elements that must be proven. Please make sure you file your notice of claim within 90 days to protect yourself. David Lesch, esq.
