Assault and Abuse Claim
Contact Us Today

McNally Gervan is one of Ottawa’s leading law firms in handling Assault and abuse claims
Victims of assaults or abuse should always report those crimes to the police or other authorities. But whether criminal charges have been filed or not, victims of assault or abuse should consult with a lawyer or law firm with experience in handling these cases. In many cases, an experienced personal injury lawyer in Ottawa will be able to recover damages from one or more of the people responsible for the assault or abuse, or for failing to prevent it. An experienced injury lawyer can sometimes recover compensation even when the assault or abuse occurred many years earlier.
