Assault & Battery Attorneys
San Diego, California Personal Injury LawyersIf you or your loved ones are the victims of an assault and battery, be aware that this leads to more than the criminal prosecution of the attacker. The law takes your injury seriously and you can pursue justice through civil courts and receive just and fair compensation for your damages.
Assault is defined as an act that threatens physical harm to a person regardless if actual harm is done. Battery occurs when the attacker manages to hit or make contact with you. These violent actions can range from verbal threats or bullying to serious physical attacks that might even result in death. Assault and battery cases are complex to handle, so make sure you have an experienced lawyer on your side.

Gallagher Krich, APC attorneys are here to build your case and fight for your rights.
- Our skillful attorneys will investigate your case and establish all potentially liable parties.

- To recover financially for the damages you have suffered during an assault or battery, we will file a lawsuit in civil court against the attacker or other liable persons or entities.
