| Maynard & Harris Attorneys at Law, PLLC distributes Personal Injury-Wrongful Death newsletters monthly. Please visit our web site for more information on Personal Injury-Wrongful Death and our contact information at http://triadaccidentlaw1.lawoffice.com Assault and Battery Two common types of personal injury torts are assault and battery. Battery is often confused with assault, and the two terms are often perceived as one claim. In actuality, they are two separate legal claims. An assault is an act that creates a reasonable apprehension of an imminent battery, while a battery is the intentional and unpermitted physical contact with another. Often, claims for both assault and battery are filed that stem from the same incident. However, even though the torts often occur together, it is important to understand that they are separate and distinct legal claims. Click here to unsubscribe from this newsletter. | ||
