Representing Victims of Bar and Nightclub Assaults
It is no surprise that numerous injuries occur in bars and nightclubs. When alcohol is involved, people lose control of their tempers quickly and fights break out. Often, an overzealous bouncer or another bar or nightclub employee assaults an innocent patron.

Serious Injuries Happen in Bar Fights
Bar fights and other types of assault can occur because a bartender knowingly overserved a patron, lighting or security is insufficient, or the bar hired unqualified personnel. The result of these negligent acts can include:
- Assault and battery
- Knife wounds
- Gunshot wounds
- Sexual assault
- Excessive force by bouncers and bar personnel
Individuals who are caught in a bar fight or assault may suffer psychological trauma, broken bones, neck injuries, back injuries and spinal cord injuries. Bar fights frequently cause traumatic brain injuries, often when a person is hit with a bottle or chair or thrown against a wall or to the ground.
You may have multiple claims, depending on the nature of the incident. We may be able to sue the person who assaulted you as well as the establishment's owner and personnel. We seek compensation for your pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, lost earnings and other damages.
