Civil rights aren’t just words on paper—they’re protections that matter in real life. ⚖️

Whether it involves police misconduct, a violation of your civil rights, or workplace discrimination, knowing when your rights may have been violated is an important first step toward seeking accountability.

At Cohen & Fitch LLP, we advocate for individuals across New York City when those in positions of power cross the line.

Your rights matter. Your voice matters. Accountability matters.

Being arrested does not automatically mean you were falsely arrested.
One of the important questions in a potential false-arrest claim is whether the arrest was supported by probable cause. The circumstances surrounding the arrest need to be examined carefully.

Factors such as what happened before the arrest, what information law enforcement had, and the basis for the detention can be important when evaluating a potential civil-rights claim.
Cohen & Fitch LLP handles false-arrest and other civil-rights matters.

If you believe you were unlawfully arrested, contact Cohen & Fitch LLP to discuss your situation and schedule a consultation.

Sexual harassment can take many forms, including unwelcome sexual comments, messages, conduct, or demands at work. New York State law protects workers from sexual harassment and prohibits retaliation for making a complaint.

If you believe you have experienced sexual harassment or retaliation at work, the specific circumstances matter.

Cohen & Fitch LLP handles sexual harassment and employment discrimination matters.

Felony or misdemeanor? Knowing the difference matters.

Not every criminal charge carries the same consequences. Felonies are generally more serious offenses and may result in longer prison sentences, larger fines, and lasting effects on employment, housing, and civil rights. Misdemeanors are less severe but can still have significant legal and personal consequences.

If you're facing criminal charges, understanding the classification of your case is an important first step.

Contact Cohen & Fitch LLP to learn more about your legal rights and options.

What makes an arrest unlawful? It often comes down to one critical question: Was there probable cause?

Joshua Fitch, Partner at Cohen & Fitch LLP, explains why probable cause is at the center of many false arrest cases. While every case depends on its own facts, inaccurate police reports, missing details, or distorted accounts can make the difference between a lawful arrest and a violation of your civil rights.

If you believe you were wrongfully arrested or your case wasn't accurately represented, you may have legal options.

Contact Cohen & Fitch LLP for a confidential consultation to learn more about your rights.
