Las Vegas Substantial Bodily Harm Defense Attorney
Under Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 200.481, battery with substantial bodily harm occurs when an individual intentionally hits or touches another person in a manner that results in serious physical injuries. Substantial bodily harm is defined under NRS 200.060 as bodily injury that creates a substantial risk for death or causes serious, permanent disfigurement or protracted loss or impairment of bodily function. Some examples include fractures, lacerations that require stitches, organ damage, paralysis, severe burns, concussions, and loss of consciousness.
It is important to note that for an act to be considered battery, it must be deliberate. Accidental touching that results in severe injuries is not deemed a criminal offense. The distinction between intentional and accidental acts is crucial when determining liability in battery with substantial bodily harm cases.
