NEW YORK, July 29, 2025 ~ New York City has been the site of numerous public demonstrations in recent months, with citizens taking to the streets to exercise their First Amendment rights. However, these protests have not been without consequences, as many individuals have suffered injuries while participating or observing. In response to this issue, Greenstein & Pittari, LLP, a leading personal injury law firm, has announced their commitment to supporting and representing these victims.

The firm recognizes that injuries can occur for a variety of reasons during protests, including police misconduct, aggressive crowd control tactics, and dangerous conditions such as stampedes or use of chemical irritants. Regardless of the cause, Greenstein & Pittari is dedicated to protecting the rights of those who have been injured.

A recent case filed by the firm in Kings County Supreme Court (Index No. 524375/2022) serves as an example of the importance of this initiative. A 25-year-old Black man was peacefully protesting in support of the Black Lives Matter movement when he was violently tackled by NYPD officers and thrown onto broken glass on West 14th Street. As a result, he suffered permanent facial scarring—a tragic outcome that highlights the excessive force too often used against peaceful demonstrators.

"We believe in every New Yorker's constitutional right to assemble and speak freely," stated Robert Greenstein, founding partner of Greenstein & Pittari, LLP. "But when exercising that right leads to injury—especially due to negligence or excessive force—victims should not be left without recourse. We are here to ensure their voices are heard and justice is pursued."

Greenstein & Pittari represents clients in a wide range of cases related to protest injuries, including police brutality and excessive force, rubber bullet or tear gas injuries, improper crowd control or unlawful detainment, trampling injuries or crowd surge injuries, injuries caused by city negligence (such as faulty barricades), and third-party violence or reckless conduct during protests. These cases often involve complex legal issues, but with their decades of experience in New York's legal landscape, the firm is prepared to fight for full and fair compensation for their clients.

The firm also emphasizes the importance of documenting any incidents and seeking legal guidance immediately following an injury during a protest. This early investigation can make a significant difference in holding responsible parties accountable.

"New Yorkers should never be afraid to stand up for what they believe in," Greenstein stated. "But when peaceful expression leads to harm, we will stand with the injured every step of the way."
