Re: Who can I sue?
If someone assaulted your ganddaughter, there may be a viable lawsuit. However, if there was no injury sustained, any recovery would be nominal and, as a result, not likely a viable case for a lawyer. Moreover, if there are no insurance companies to cover damages, acquiring a Judgement and collecting are two very different things.
In short, it would be exceedingly difficult in most cases. However, you should consult with an attorney in your area.
