A fan at an Oakland A's game against the Texas Rangers was struck in the face by a folding metal chair thrown by a Rangers pitcher. We sued the Rangers organization and three of their players and obtained a substantial confidential settlement for our client on the eve of trial. This case was highly publicized by the national media.
Bay Area Attorneys Represent Victims of Assault and Battery
Gwilliam, Ivary, Chiosso, Cavalli & Brewer is an Oakland/Bay Area based law firm representing victims of serious injuries for over 30 years. Keeping our clients’ interests as a top priority requires us to accept only those cases we strongly believe in, with the goal to achieve the best results through settlement or trial.
Our firm has championed victims’ rights and has taken on cases where clients have suffered serious injuries as a result of an assault and battery.
Our attorneys take a holistic approach to representing clients. In trying to see the whole picture — who they are, where they are from and their acquaintances — we get a better sense of all the ways their injury has affected them. Once we do so, we are in a better position to fully convey these effects to a judge, jury or opposing counsel.
But obtaining compensation is only one part of our job. We also believe that it is our responsibility to help clients in ways that go beyond their immediate legal needs. For that reason, a professional legal team is assigned to each case. This ensures that someone who knows the client and his or her case is almost always available to respond to the client's needs and questions as they arise. This is true while the case is ongoing, and it is equally true afterwards as well.
If you or a family member has been seriously injured in an assault and battery incident, or you are an attorney interested in referring a client to our firm – your call or e-mail will be reviewed by a lawyer and responded to as promptly as possible.
