I was assaulted in Georgia and suffered a concussion. Do I have a civil claim?

Potentially yes. Under Georgia law, civil personal injury claims for assault-related concussions exist independently of any criminal proceedings. You do not need a criminal conviction to pursue civil damages. Note that Georgia’s statute of limitations for personal injury is generally two years from the date of injury — do not wait.
