Fighting police misconduct and malicious prosecution

Attorney Michael A. Delakas is a former New York City police officer and detective who knows when law enforcement has crossed the line or when they simply haven’t done their job effectively.  Police misconduct may range from questionable stop and frisks, racial profiling and false arrests, to excessive force and police brutality. Civil rights violations in New York City such as these are often not isolated incidents, and some may even become institutionalized department-wide. Often the only way to bring these practices to light and put a stop to them is through civil litigation brought by the victims of these civil rights violations.
