Per ARS 13-1203, assault refers to the intentional threat of violence or harm. While the term “battery” refers to the actual physical contact that causes harm. 

If you have been a victim of assault or battery, it is important to seek the advice of an experienced personal injury lawyer who can help you understand your legal rights and options to recover compensation for damages suffered.

He also allegedly injured a second victim. (Source: NY Post)

  2. Lost wages: If you are unable to work as a result of your injuries, you may be entitled to compensation for lost wages, including both current and future earnings.
  3. Pain and suffering: You may be entitled to compensation for the physical pain and emotional distress that you have endured as a result of the assault or battery.
  4. Punitive damages: In some cases, you may be able to pursue punitive damages, which are intended to punish the person who committed the assault or battery and deter similar behavior in the future.
