We do police brutality cases strictly on a contingency fee basis

We do Sexual Harassment Cases for an initial $7,500 retainer-plus expenses as we go.  If we prevail, the amount paid to the attorneys is returned and the attorneys retain either 33.3% or the fee awarded by the court against the defendants.  You pay nothing further than the $7,500 and agreed upon reasonable expenses.

Here are just a few of our cases.  We are also very proud to have made law protecting victims of harassment in NYC pursuant to the administrative code, and to have made law for people victimized by off duty police officers when their employers refuse to investigate their alleged misconduct.
