NEW EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

Please be advised, the emergency call out procedure for critical incidents has changed. The "pager system" is no longer being used and has been replaced with a 24 hour cellular phone to facilitate response time from a PBA Attorney.

EMERGENCY CONTACT PROCEDURES

Members, please be advised that the emergency number (561) 371-7200 is for CRITICAL INCIDENTS ONLY.

Our attorney(s) should ONLY be contacted after hours for critical incidents; that is, an officer-involved shooting, an in-custody death, an on-duty vehicle accident with injuries or if Internal Affairs investigators are responding right now to an incident.

If you are attempting to contact a PBA Attorney for any matter that is not a critical incident, please contact the PBA Office (561)689-3745 during regular business hours 8:30am - 4:30pm Monday through Friday.
