New York - A team of Stroock attorneys has been awarded the Pro Bono Publico Award from The Legal Aid Society for their continued work to combat “digital stop and frisk” policing that adversely impacts people of color.
Stroock partner James Bernard, special counsel Dave Kahne, associates TaLona Holbert and Michael Mallon, and paralegal supervisor Christine Stygar represented seven men of color who claimed they were subjected to unconstitutional stops by the New York City Police Department as a pretense for officers to scan digital databases for existing warrants or other information.

Launched in 2001, the Public Service Project (PSP) continues Stroock’s longtime commitment to serving individuals and communities who are denied access to justice and equal opportunity.
