What Is Assault and Battery in Personal Injury Cases?
Assault and battery are intentional acts of harm or threat by another person—ranging from a shove or punch to serious physical violence. Victims can file a civil claim to seek compensation for their injuries, emotional distress, and financial losses, separate from any criminal charges.

- Fights or altercations at work, school, or businesses
- Threats of harm that cause real fear or emotional trauma

Assault & Battery Injury FAQs
What compensation can I recover for assault or battery?
You may recover medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and, in some cases, punitive damages.
Do I need to press criminal charges to file a lawsuit?
No. Your civil claim for compensation is separate from any criminal case. We can help whether or not criminal charges are filed.
What should I do immediately after an assault?
Get medical attention, document your injuries, save any evidence (photos, witness information), and contact an attorney as soon as possible.
How long do I have to file a claim?
California law sets strict time limits for personal injury claims. Contact us quickly to preserve your rights.
Can I sue for emotional trauma without physical injuries?
Yes, in some cases. If the assault or battery caused significant fear, anxiety, or PTSD, you may still have a claim.
