personal injury law suit or not help ?

Yes, you can sue for civil damages for the assault, battery and kidnapping, and for your personal injuries. '

The fact that there's a criminal conviction will make it easier to get a civil judgment, since in your criminal case, this has already been proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and in a civil case, you only need to prove it happened by a preponderance of the evidence. Also, if the perpetrators are in jail, they'll be easy to serve with a civil complaint. There is also the possibility of getting restitution from these perpetrators to compensate you for your medical bills.

See a personal injury lawyer to get the process started.

I'm slightly confused as to "it happened on" their property. You many the people convicted?

You can sue - the question is do they have assets or insurance. Contact a personal injury attorney immediately - if you need some help, feel free to call me and I'll try to answer your questions (I've represented several victims in the past - as have several attorneys I know throughout California.

Good luck with your situation.

I agree with my colleagues that you can sue, and need a lawyer immediately. I wanted to add that you should be able to contact your local victim/witness office for the County or City, and see if they will pay for your bills as a crime victim. This might really help.

Good luck.
