New York City Handcuff Injury Lawyer

Queens, the Bronx, Manhattan, Long Island and Brooklyn Excessive Force Attorneys

It is an unfortunate reality that during the course of an arrest, some New York City police officers use excessive force to maintain a sense of control, especially if the suspect offers any sort of resistance. While we at Goldberg & Allen never underestimate the challenge police officers face when enforcing the law, we seek to protect the rights of citizens who have suffered serious injury when police officers have crossed the line.

We provide honest counsel upfront to those who have suffered handcuff injuries and other mistreatment during the course of arrest in the five boroughs of New York City. For skilled legal representation from experienced trial lawyers, contact us to discuss the details of your case in a free, confidential consultation.

Have You Suffered a Serious Injury During Arrest?

You do not need to be beaten to suffer police brutality. As former First Deputy Bureau Chiefs for the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office, our attorneys are very familiar with law enforcement procedures. We have handled serious cases involving handcuff injuries, personal injury due to rough treatment, scare tactics and other forms of intimidation brought by police officers.

If you or a loved one has suffered permanent nerve damage or broken wrists as a result of the improper use of handcuffs, we will consult with expert neurologists, orthopedists and other medical professionals to build an assertive claim for damages. We also work with police experts to determine whether the procedures were appropriate under current police guidelines. As veteran attorneys, we know the legal and procedural limits police can use, and we can gauge whether an improper use of force has been a factor in your case.

Even if the NYPD had a lawful reason to stop you, it has a duty to protect your rights as a citizen and to prevent unnecessary injury. We have successfully brought civil cases against overzealous police officers and the City of New York on improper force charges as well as procedural violations.
