What Is Battery Under Nevada Law?

Under Nevada law, battery is the intentional use of force or violence against another person (NRS 200.481). Even if there’s no visible injury, any unwanted or harmful physical contact could result in charges. Assault refers to intentionally placing someone in fear of imminent harm, even without physical contact.

You may have a civil claim for compensation even if the attacker is not convicted criminally.

Types of Battery Charges in Nevada

  • Simple Battery (Misdemeanor Battery)

    • A basic battery charge applies when a person intentionally touches or strikes another person in a harmful or offensive way without legal justification.
    • Penalties: Up to 6 months in jail, up to $1,000 in fines, and potential community service or anger management classes.

  • Battery Constituting Domestic Violence (BDV)

    • When the victim is a spouse, ex-spouse, dating partner, co-parent, or family member, the charge becomes domestic violence-related.
    • Penalties: First-time offenders may face mandatory counseling, fines, community service, and jail time, with harsher penalties for repeat offenses.

  • Battery with a Deadly Weapon

    • If the defendant allegedly used a knife, firearm, or any other deadly weapon, the battery charge escalates to a felony.
    • Penalties: 2 to 15 years in Nevada State Prison, depending on whether substantial bodily harm occurred.

  • Battery with Substantial Bodily Harm

    • If the victim suffers serious injuries, including broken bones, disfigurement, or a life-threatening condition, the charge is a felony.
    • Penalties: Up to 10 years in prison and significant fines.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

Victims of assault or battery in Nevada may be able to recover:

  • Medical Expenses – Emergency care, hospital bills, therapy, prescriptions
  • Lost Wages – Time off work and lost earning potential
  • Pain & Suffering – PTSD, anxiety, emotional trauma
  • Permanent Injury or Disfigurement – Damages for long-term harm
  • Punitive Damages – In cases of intentional or malicious attacks
  • Property Damage – Compensation for damaged personal belongings

What To Do If You’ve Been Attacked
