Assault is a serious civil matter that involves wrongful or offensive contact or threats against a person, even when no physical injury ultimately occurs. In civil law, assault focuses on the harm caused by fear, intimidation, or the reasonable expectation of imminent physical contact, rather than solely on criminal punishment.
At Norcross Civil Trials, we represent individuals who have suffered harm, distress, or personal rights violations due to assaultive conduct. Our goal is to hold responsible parties accountable and pursue fair compensation for the impact such actions have caused.
Civil assault differs from criminal assault. While criminal cases are prosecuted by the state, civil assault claims are brought by the injured individual seeking financial recovery and legal remedies.
Physical contact is not required for a civil assault claim. The key factor is whether the conduct
caused reasonable fear or emotional harm.
Threatening behavior, intimidation, or aggressive conduct by supervisors, coworkers, or third
parties.
Escalated personal or business conflicts involving threats or hostile confrontations.
Civil claims arising alongside or independent of family or household disputes.
Assaultive behavior occurring in stores, offices, events, or other public locations.
Situations where individuals use position or influence to intimidate or threaten others.
To establish a civil assault claim, the following elements are commonly evaluated:
The defendant acted deliberately, not accidentally.
The conduct caused a reasonable fear of immediate harmful or offensive contact.
The conduct occurred without permission or legal justification.
Emotional distress, psychological impact, or other compensable damages occurred.
Our attorneys analyze each case carefully to determine whether these elements can be
established under applicable civil law.

Each case is unique, and damages are assessed based on the severity and impact of the
