I'm sorry to hear about this incident. You do have a case. What it's worth depends on a lot of factors. For example, whether you have a fractured nose or not will make a difference. This clearly would impact the amount of your medical specials. You also will be entitled to general damages on top of that, namely your "pain and suffering" "humiliation", etc. There are a other facts I would need to know before I could make a determination. Please call me at the number below to discuss further.
