Typically, when someone mentions a legal claim for a personal injury, we immediately think of harm that occurred in some type of accident. But if you’re the victim of intentional harm, you may need an assault and battery attorney.
Assault and battery are both criminal and civil offenses. The State handles the criminal prosecution of the person who hurts you. A personal injury attorney handles your civil case against the person who hurt you. If you have had unwanted physical contact with an assailant — that is contact without your consent — you are a battery victim. If you have had the threat of imminent harm – that is an immediate physical threat – you are an assault victim. If you feel someone has intentionally harmed you, it’s important that you first get medical attention and then contact an experienced assault and battery lawyer.
