$150k Settlement for LLG Client for Malicious Prosecution

We are pleased to announce that our client, EL, has recently settled his claims of malicious prosecution and denial of a fair trial against members of the NYPD for $150,000. EL was driving a rental car when he was stopped by officers in the Bronx, who–acting on a tip from an informant–asked to search EL’s trunk. EL, who believed he had nothing to hide, readily consented. The officers then stated they found a handgun in the trunk. EL, who always denied any knowledge or connection to the gun, was acquitted at trial and then hired LLG to sue for compensation. The case ended with a settlement in the amount of $150,000.
