Q: A domestic violence abuser knocked at all of my teeth and refuses to pay for them also left me owing thousands of dolla.
A: If you've been a victim of domestic violence and suffered physical harm, you may want to consider reaching out to law enforcement to report the incident. Additionally, you might want to consult with an attorney in your state to explore your legal options, which could include seeking a restraining order, pressing charges against the abuser, and potentially pursuing a civil lawsuit for damages.
A:
If you have been a victim of domestic violence resulting in injuries, including dental damage, you may have grounds to pursue a civil lawsuit against the abuser for damages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering. Consult with legal counsel to evaluate the specifics of your case and explore your options for seeking compensation under California law.
