Q. Hi, i am a resident of GA. My boyfriend got in a fight during a community soccer game, now the player wants a lawsuit ?

March 19, 2015

A: The situation you have described involves many factors. One issue, of many, is whether the fight was mutual or one party was the aggressor with the other party acting only in self-defense?

A person may be sued for injuries the person causes to another. Whether the plaintiff in such a case would be able to recover his or her damages depends on the facts of the particular case and issues such as the one above.

The situation where one party brings a lawsuit against another to recover damages is a civil case. Where one party injures another, however, criminal charges also may apply. Generally, criminal charges are brought by the State in a criminal case. The determination of whether criminal charges could apply likely would involve many of the same issues that would be involved in a civil lawsuit (e.g. who started the fight, whether the fight was mutual, whether one party was merely acting in self-defense, etc.).

Q. What is the amount for settlement claims?

March 19, 2015

A: The determination of what constitutes a fair settlement offer may involve numerous factors such as the limits and applicability of any insurance coverage to your particular situation, and the year, model, mileage, and fair market value of your vehicle. The offer may be fair if in fact your vehicle was worth only $500.00 or your damages totaled only $500.00.

Because the determination of what constitutes a fair settlement offer involves many factors, you should contact a local attorney if you are unsure whether the offer is sufficient and fair.
