Re: Tort Law
There may be a claim against a family member if the family member has or may have some duty to the plaintiff themselves. If the defendant is a minor there may be a claim against the parents for a statutory amount of $5000 for the liability of parents for the intentional acts of their children. Should you wish to discuss this further please feel free to contact me.
