Assault & Battery

Civil Justice for Intentional Harm

At The J Davis Law Firm, we understand that being the victim of an assault or battery is not just traumatic—it’s deeply personal. While criminal courts may handle the prosecution, the civil justice system allows victims to recover compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial harm they’ve suffered.

As a former prosecutor with trial experience in both criminal and civil courtrooms, Jim understands the nuances of these cases and is relentless about seeking justice. You deserve to be heard.

What Is Assault & Battery?

In civil cases, assault refers to the threat of harm that causes fear or apprehension, while battery is the actual physical contact or harm inflicted. You do not need to show that the assailant was charged criminally to pursue a civil claim. We help you hold them accountable.

We Represent Victims of:

  • Bar fights and altercations
  • Domestic violence
  • Sexual assault
  • Police brutality or excessive force
  • Workplace assaults
  • Nursing home abuse
  • School or daycare injuries
