What remedies are available in civil lawsuits?
HCB Law Firm2023-05-16T13:03:46-05:00In certain instances, Courts can order injunctions, which are judicial orders restraining a party from engaging in certain actions which invade or threaten to invade the legal rights of another. They are available only in certain instances. In most civil cases, the only available remedy is money damages. A plaintiff in a case of abuse can be awarded damages for past or future medical expenses (including mental health expenses), past or future lost wages, loss of household contributions, pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life, and any other item of provable damage necessary to make the plaintiff whole.
