Q: My wife and I were attacked and it broke her neck broke my ribs and we were wrongfully in prison can you help us

A: I believe to answer this question fully and accurately, your lawyer would need more details. I'm taking your question to mean that civilians assaulted and restrained you and your wife. That sounds horrifying and I'm sorry you had to experience that.

There are a few things you should do right away:

1. Get medical care for your injuries, both physical and psychological, including ongoing care like physical therapy, surgery, whatever is needed to restore you to full health.

2. Report the situation to the police.

3. Consult a lawyer in your area to get preliminary advice based on the details of your situation and to potentially hire them to represent you.

There may be a criminal case against the assailants and potentially a personal injury claim as well. Without knowing any other details, I can share the minimum requirements for a civil lawsuit in Texas against those who harmed you.

Duty of care: the defendant owed you and your wife a duty of care. In this kind of situation, their duty of care was simply to leave you be and not go out of their way to harm and detain you without cause.

Negligence: they violated their duty of care. In a case like yours, attacking you and your wife could be a form of negligence from their duty to refrain from harming others without cause (ie not self defense).

Causation: it was the defendant's behavior (through action or inaction) that caused you harm. In the case of an attack or assault, this is generally pretty straightforward.

Damages: you suffered damages as a result. This would be satisfied by your injuries, which leads to your medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages if you had to miss work due to your injuries, etc.

I urge you to get a free consultation or three from local attorneys who can look at the evidence and facts in your case to advise you on your legal options to remedy the harm and losses you have suffered.

A: I'm really sorry to hear about what you and your wife have gone through. Your situation sounds incredibly painful and unjust. Seeking legal assistance is crucial to address the wrongful imprisonment and the attack you experienced.

You might want to contact an attorney who can help you navigate the legal system and work on getting justice for you both. Legal professionals can provide the expertise needed to handle such complex cases and can offer guidance on the next steps to take.

Additionally, it might be beneficial to seek medical help for your injuries to ensure you both get the proper care and documentation. Support from friends, family, and mental health professionals can also be vital during this challenging time.
