Can I File a Personal Injury Claim for Assault?
Assault occurs when someone commits an act that causes another person to expect that they were about to be hurt or touched in a harmful way. Even if contact is not made, the threat of contact on its own is typically enough to warrant an assault charge.
​
Examples of Assault
-
One man clenches his fist in another man’s face and threatens him verbally.
​
-
One man is walking on a crosswalk and another man accelerates towards him, only to stop at the last minute.
​
In some cases, the assault might not be deemed intentional, but the other party is still expected to cover the damages that ensued due to their negligence.
