Massimo & Panetta, P.C. are leaders in municipal liability. Whether it be The State of New York, City of New York or any County or other municipality, they are leaders in multiple areas of “muni liability”, from bad cops, to defective roadway design. With partner Frank C. Panetta, Esq. procuring a published verdict at $ 5.2 million dollars and Nicholas J. Massimo, Esq. recently tagging Nassau County and officers Kouril and DeCaro in Federal Court, Brooklyn, Cadman Plaza with a verdict of $340,000.00 plus legal fees in a confidential amount (the amount of legal fees in a civil rights action can exceed the verdict and often does), there is only one place to go when you have been a victim of police misconduct or poor decisions made by the government. There is no doubt that when a party is harmed by a municipality, whether it be by bad cops or unsanctioned and unsafe roadway configurations, the partners at Massimo & Panetta, P.C. know how to make the government accountable for bad cops or bad judgment.
