Borrelli & Associates Settles Whistleblower Retaliation Case on Behalf of New York City Detective

James Griffin commenced his lawsuit against the City of New York for retaliation after he reported a cover up to Internal Affairs.

Mr. Griffin paid the price for violating the “blue wall of silence.” In what can be characterized as nothing short of victory, Borrelli & Associates, P.L.L.C., on Mr. Griffin’s behalf settled his lawsuit prior to trial for $280,000.
