Hello. Certainly, victims of crime may suffer personal injury and civil legal action seeking financial compensation for the harms done to the victim may well be appropriate. Harm to victims may include money/pecuniary loss (for example, loss of wages and other earnings) and physical and emotional injuries. I urge you to confer privately with an attorney, and I recommend that you phone several attorneys in choosing. All the best.
