Assault and Battery Incidents
What is assault and battery? The words “assault” and “battery” are normally used together, but they are referring to different things. Assault specifically refers to attempted violence, which can also be considered the threat of violence. Battery, on the other hand, specifically refers to the act of violence (i.e., acting on the threat of violence). In most cases, assault and battery happen together, although they can happen separately.
In most cases, assault and battery incidents stem from verbal arguments, in which one of the parties involved threatens violence and follows through with the threat. Assault and battery can lead to a number of injuries, some of which can be fatal.
Some examples of the injuries that victims of assault and battery are likely to suffer include the following:
- Head injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Neck injuries
- Back injuries
- Fractures (rib fractures are common)
- Lacerations
- Sprains and strains
- Bruises
- Organ damage
- Internal bleeding
Regardless of the specific harm that victims suffer in assault and battery cases, it is important that affected parties know their rights and find a lawyer to help them pursue an assault and battery lawsuit.

Can You Sue for Assault and Battery?

- Sexual assault (including rape)
- Battery
- Car accidents

You Can Recover Compensation
If you decide to pursue an assault and battery claim or a claim for harm resulting from any other incident, you could be eligible to recover monetary compensation. What could you recover? How much compensation could you receive? The type and amount of compensation that you could receive will always be based on the details surrounding your personal injury claim; however, your recovery could include some of the following:
- Medical expenses
- Lost earnings
- Pain and suffering
- Funeral and burial costs
- Punitive damages
- Legal expenses
If you are interested in learning more about the specific compensation that you could receive, do not hesitate to contact the experts at our law firm as soon as possible. Our lawyers are ready to help you recover the highest compensation available for your injury claim.
The Statute of Limitations
How long do you have to file your assault and battery lawsuit against a celebrity? All personal injury claims – including assault and battery claims – are subject to a statute of limitations. The statute of limitations determines the total length of time that you have to file your injury claim. If you do not file your claim on time, you could lose your right to file your lawsuit entirely.
What deadline applies to your claim? In California, injury claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations, which means that claimants will only have two years to file their claim. In some cases, however, it is possible for exceptions to the statute of limitations to apply. To ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the total length of time that you have to sue, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our law firm immediately. Our lawyers will help you file your injury claim on time.
