Referring lawyers
Do you have a client whose case requires the experience of skilled litigators who successfully handle many jury trials each year? At Berman & Simmons, we regularly work on referred cases. We value our relationships with the many attorneys and law firms that ask us to help on their intentional tort cases. When you refer a case to us, you and your client benefit. We have a long history of trying cases in the courtroom and turning difficult, complex intentional tort cases into high-value settlements or judgments.
Intentional Harm
Have you experienced an injury because someone intentionally caused you harm? In legal terms, that action is an intentional tort; and Berman & Simmons personal injury lawyers are here to help. An intentional tort case does not always involve physical injury, either; your damages may involve harm to your reputation or your economic interests.
We will work with you to evaluate your situation and help you recover appropriate damages for your physical or emotional injuries or other harm. In some instances, you may be able to recover punitive damages, as well.
The most common types of intentional torts are:
Assault and Battery: A person puts you in fear of physical harm or intentionally and without permission causes physical contact with you
False imprisonment: A person intentionally restrains or prevents you from coming and going as you please
Conversion: A person steals from you
Defamation / Slander / Libel: A person makes false statements about you, causing harm. If the statement is written, it is called libel; if oral, it is called slander.
