Staten Island is a popular location for people looking for an accessible home that is more affordable than those in the other boroughs. It is New York’s most suburban boroughs and is easily accessible to the rest of New York via the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and the Staten Island Ferry. Three bridges also connect Staten Island to New Jersey. The island has an active arts scene, a number of exceptional museums and gardens, and beautiful historic homes. Almost a half million people make their home on Staten Island, and thousands more cross the island every day on their way to and from Brooklyn, Manhattan and New Jersey.
As in any busy, highly populated area, in Staten Island citizens’ and visitors’ interactions with the police are frequent. Unfortunately, members of the public sometimes are seriously injured or killed in these encounters. If you or a member of your family has been injured or killed due to police brutality, you deserve to be compensated for your injuries and expenses.
Police brutality is the unwarranted use of excessive force and intimidation by law enforcement personnel in the course of their official duties. It is an abuse of authority which can involve the infliction of psychological as well as physical injury. Police brutality can also describe the actions of correctional officers. In the event you or someone you love is injured or killed as a result of police brutality, a lawyer can help you bring a claim to recover damages and losses. Promptly consult a professional with proven success in police brutality cases to ensure you preserve your rights.
