Hello - I am sorry to hear about what happened. The short answer to your question is yes. Your neighbor committed a Battery on your husband which would give rise to criminal charges as well as a civil suit.
You could. The outcome would depend in large part on the cost and seriousness of the injury.
You didn't state when this occurred. In any event, at the least, if your husband hasn't done so yet, he should call the police to file a complaint. At the same time, your husband should consult with an attorney to discuss liability and damages.
