Just like in any other case, where there is crime with a victim, you can potentially be sued in a domestic violence case. Domestic violence is the circumstances or topic of where the case took place, but say there was an assault and battery, and the person is really injured, they can absolutely bring a lawsuit to recover damages for that assault and battery. Like they could if they were smashed into by a car. I'm Sam Goldberg, lead counsel for criminal defense matters at Altman & Altman, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I have 25 years of experience.
