Farrah Abraham is considering suing the venue where a security guard pinned her to the ground and performed a citizen's arrest following an altercation.
Kia Feyzjou, Farrah's lawyer, told TMZ she and her team were, at the bare minimum, considering a civil suit against the venue as the reality star, 30, should never have been placed under a citizen's arrest to begin with.
Feyzjou claims the citizen's arrest performed on Farrah was unlawful, and therefore she should never have been taken into police custody.

Feyzjou also claims the security guards used excessive force when restraining Farrah, who is allegedly now in a lot of pain and distress.
Feyzjou believes this gives Farrah another reason to sue.
Farrah was taken into custody on Saturday night for slapping a security guard at the club Grandmaster Records in Los Angeles, law enforcement sources told TMZ. She was was booked on a charge of misdemeanor assault and freed from custody two hours later.
The security guard whom Farrah allegedly struck, Megan Armstrong, claims to have sustained injuries from the incident in a photo she posted to her Instagram account on Tuesday.

Armstrong appeared to have a bruise over her left eye in a selfie she posted on her account. She has been weighing in on the incident with various posts on Instagram.
TMZ notes there's 'no word' on whether or not Armstrong plans to take legal action as well.
Abraham was recently seen with multiple injuries following the incident including bruising on her arms and elbows, cuts on her lower back, shoulders and elbows.
She is due back in court in May, and said she will be suing the restaurant and the security guard who caused the injuries.

The reality star later posted silent video that showed her being held to the ground by a masked man, who appeared to be a security guard.
The confrontation began when someone described as a 'hater' of Farrah assaulted her and her friends at the venue, an eyewitness claimed.
Following the confrontation, Farrah allegedly became 'belligerent,' so staff asked her to leave, but she refused.

Rather than calling for the police to assist, paramedics were reportedly called.
However, the reality star apparently was so agitated that police were subsequently called to the club.
