If you have been the victim of a crime then you may be legally entitled to compensation, whether you are assaulted with a deadly weapon, victim of a battery, child abuse, child sexual assault, child endangerment, drunk driver, or a hit and run driver. At Kreisman Law Offices, we are dedicated in helping injured victims and their families.

A civil criminal rights claim differs from a criminal lawsuit because it seeks compensation for the crime. The purpose of the civil claim is not to put the criminal behind bars or prosecute. Instead you are seeking monetary compensation for the emotional distress and mental pain and suffering, or any other sort of effect on your life, as a result of the crime.

For over 30 years, Kreisman Law Offices has represented victims of crime in a variety of civil cases, including victims of murder, arm robbery, kidnapping, rape, domestic violence and abuse, assault and battery, sexual assault, stalking, and sexual molestation. In addition, Kreisman Law Offices has handled cases dealing with terrorism threats, negligent security, clergy physical abuse, and exploitation or other violations of our clients' rights.

And don't think that a civil crime victim claim can only be brought against an individual. Kreisman Law Offices has won crime victim lawsuits on behalf of its' clients against hotels, motels, shopping centers, movie theaters, concert halls, apartment building owners, schools, religious organizations and other entities that hosted public gatherings. Retailers, land owners, business owners and operators, store owners, security companies, event promoters and others have lost in court or settled cases with victims of crimes.
