Sexual Abuse

Understanding Representation for Victims

If you have been an adult victim of sexual abuse by a person in a position of power, such as a therapist, supervisor or member of the clergy, you may feel uncomfortable talking about your experiences. It is natural to feel a sense of embarrassment, guilt, or humiliation. However, you must remind yourself — this was not your fault. You didn't ask for this to take place and you deserve to compensation for what happened.

You Have a Right to Seek Damages

If you were taken advantage of by a counselor, teacher, or community figure, we will assist you in bringing a law suit against the guilty party and their insurer for the damage done to your life. You deserve the financial and psychological means to move forward. As a sexual abuse trial lawyer, I may be able to obtain financial recovery for:

• Pain and suffering
• Economic damage
• Further treatment and therapy

Your Courage Can Prevent This From Happening to Others

Being sexually abused by a trusted member of the community can be devastating to your life and personal well-being. If you were preyed upon by someone you relied on for guidance, your physical, emotional and psychological stability may be greatly affected. This can lead to issues relating to family and employment.

By letting us help you hold your abuser responsible for his or her unethical and irresponsible actions, you are taking back control. By making this person accountable for what took place, you can prevent a similar situation from happening to other vulnerable people.
