Understanding Physical Assault as an Intentional Tort 

Physical assault falls under a category of civil law known as intentional torts, acts that are committed with deliberate intent to cause harm or instill fear. In a personal injury context, assault does not need to result in a criminal conviction for you to file a lawsuit. Civil cases use a lower burden of proof and focus on compensating the victim rather than punishing the offender through incarceration. 

Intentional torts like assault and battery are distinct from negligence-based claims. The at-fault party did not make a mistake; they made a choice. If someone intentionally strikes, punches, kicks, or otherwise inflicts bodily harm on you, they can be held legally liable for the physical and emotional damage they cause. Our attorneys are highly skilled in presenting clear, evidence-backed claims of assault in civil court, ensuring that your experience is taken seriously—even when the criminal justice system fails to provide closure. 

What Are Assault Injuries? 

Assault injuries refer to the physical and emotional harm suffered by a person as the result of an intentional act of violence or threat of violence by another person. “Assault” can occur when someone intentionally puts another in fear of imminent harm, while “battery” is the actual act of harmful or offensive physical contact. Although these terms are often used together, both can give rise to serious injuries that are actionable under personal injury law. Assault injuries may result from situations such as bar fights, domestic violence, workplace altercations, or even unprovoked attacks in public spaces. These injuries can include anything from bruises and lacerations to traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, or permanent disfigurement. 

But the impact does not stop at the physical level. Victims of physical assault frequently experience psychological trauma, including PTSD, depression, and severe anxiety. These emotional injuries can disrupt daily life and require therapy or counseling for months or years. At MLG, we recognize that assault injuries are not limited to what can be seen on an X-ray or medical chart. That is why we approach these cases with sensitivity, comprehensive documentation, and a commitment to securing compensation for both the visible and invisible consequences of violent acts. 

Business and Third-Party Liability in Assault Cases 

In many physical assault cases, the attacker is not the only party responsible. Businesses, property managers, and employers may also be held civilly liable when their failure to provide adequate security, perform background checks, or intervene in dangerous situations leads to foreseeable harm. This concept, known as third-party liability, often plays a key role in cases involving: 

• Bars or nightclubs with known histories of violence
• Apartment complexes with poor lighting and broken security gates
• Hotels that fail to screen or monitor guests and employees
• Workplaces that ignore reports of violent employees
• Event venues without adequate crowd control or security staffing 

These entities have a duty of care to protect patrons, residents, and employees from foreseeable harm. If that duty is breached, and someone is injured as a result, they can be held liable in a civil claim. Our legal team has extensive experience proving liability not only against individual assailants but also against the institutions that enable or ignore violent behavior.

Pursuing Compensation in Civil Court 

When we file a civil lawsuit on your behalf, the goal is to recover monetary compensation for the damages you have endured due to the assault. This process is not about punishing the attacker, which is the role of the criminal courtscourts, but about securing financial relief for victims who have been left to deal with the consequences. 

We pursue compensation for: 

• Medical costs: ER visits, surgeries, ongoing treatments, therapy
• Lost wages: Time missed from work and diminished earning capacity
• Pain and suffering: Physical and emotional trauma resulting from the incident
• Punitive damages: In cases of especially reckless or malicious conduct
• Property damage: If your phone, clothing, or belongings were damaged during the incident 

In some cases, compensation can also extend to future expenses, such as long-term therapy, disability accommodations, or job retraining. Our goal is to help you rebuild your life, not just settle for a short-term payout.
