Types of Cases We Handle

Sexual abuse takes many forms. Our network of attorneys specializes in all types of civil claims to help you seek accountability and compensation.

👦
Civil Litigation

Childhood Sexual Abuse

Many states have enacted laws extending or eliminating statutes of limitations for childhood sexual abuse claims — it's not too late to pursue justice, even for abuse that occurred decades ago.

Institutional Abuse

Clergy & Church Abuse

Religious institutions have a duty to protect members. If you were abused by a clergy member or covered-up abuse enabled harm, you may have a civil claim against the institution.

🏢
Employment Law

Workplace Sexual Harassment

Employers are legally obligated to maintain safe workplaces. Unwanted sexual advances, quid pro quo harassment, or hostile work environments may entitle you to significant damages.

🏫
Institutional Abuse

School & Camp Abuse

Schools, youth camps, and sports organizations have a duty to protect minors. If a coach, teacher, or staff member abused you, the institution may bear civil liability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, completely. Our case review service costs you nothing. If we connect you with an attorney, they work on a contingency basis — meaning you only pay if you win your case. There are no hidden fees or upfront costs.
Absolutely. Your privacy is our top priority. Any information you share is strictly confidential and protected by attorney-client privilege once you're connected with a lawyer. We never share your personal information without your consent.
Is it too late to file a claim for abuse that happened years ago? +
Not necessarily. Many states have recently extended or eliminated statutes of limitations for sexual abuse cases, particularly those involving minors. We strongly encourage you to get a free review — even if you believe too much time has passed, a legal advocate can assess your specific situation.
Depending on your case, survivors may be entitled to compensation for medical and therapy expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, emotional distress, and punitive damages. Civil cases are separate from criminal proceedings and do not require a criminal conviction.
Do I need to have reported the abuse to police to file a civil claim? +
No. Civil lawsuits and criminal reports are separate legal processes. You can pursue a civil claim regardless of whether the abuse was ever reported to law enforcement or whether criminal charges were ever filed.
The initial case review form takes about 2–3 minutes to complete. After submission, a legal advocate typically reaches out within 24 hours to discuss your case. The overall timeline of a legal claim varies based on complexity, but our advocates guide you every step of the way.
