Representing People in Police Brutality Cases

If you are stopped and arrested by the police, you do not forfeit any of your constitutionally guaranteed civil rights. If the arresting officer uses excessive force in detaining you or at any point after the arrest, you have a right to bring a federal civil rights lawsuit.

• Who will believe someone who was drunk?
• Who will listen to me if I was guilty of a crime?
• Who will take the case of a drug addict?

…the attorneys at the Law Office of Mallon and Tranger. We have successfully handled numerous police brutality cases for clients throughout south Jersey. We understand that many victims of police brutality are reluctant to file excessive force claims for fear of retaliation, enhanced criminal charges or malicious prosecution.

We can help. All our police brutality cases are handled by firm founder Thomas J. Mallon. He has more than 30 years of experience handling criminal defense matters, including working as an investigator and prosecutor in the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office. He is also certified in Civil Trial Law by the Supreme Court of New Jersey. His experience allows us to effectively represent clients in police brutality cases while defending them against criminal charges.

Successful Police Brutality Representation

Excessive force claims are difficult to pursue. Judges and prosecutors tend to believe police officers over people facing criminal charges, but problem officers often file false police reports. We have the skill, experience, and interest to pursue cases involving civil rights violations. Our success in cases against police officers in Seaside Park, Freehold, Atlantic City, Jackson, Long Branch, and Hazlet, New Jersey, demonstrates our ability to effectively represent clients that have suffered physical and emotional injuries as a result of police brutality.
