Sexual Abuse Attorneys
Survivors deserve to be heard and believed. We represent survivors of sexual abuse by clergy, rideshare drivers and powerful individuals, and every conversation with our team is strictly confidential.
Confidential from the first call
Talking about abuse is hard. You decide how much to share and when. We will listen, explain your options plainly and never pressure you. Many survivors pursue their cases without their name becoming public.
Church and clergy sexual abuse
Religious institutions have been held responsible for abuse by clergy and church staff, especially when leaders knew or should have known and failed to act. Claims can be brought against the abuser and the institution that enabled the abuse.
Uber and rideshare sexual assault
Rideshare companies have faced thousands of claims from passengers assaulted by drivers. These cases can focus on how the company screened drivers, responded to complaints and protected riders.
Sexual abuse in nursing homes and care facilities
Older adults and people with disabilities in nursing homes and assisted living facilities are especially vulnerable to sexual abuse by staff, visitors or other residents, and many cannot report it themselves. Facilities can be held responsible when they fail to screen staff, supervise residents or act on warning signs. Learn more on our nursing home abuse page.
Abuse by prominent or powerful individuals
When abuse is committed by someone with money, fame or influence, survivors often face pressure to stay silent. We help survivors pursue accountability against the abuser and against organizations that protected them.
Time limits may be longer than you think
Deadlines for sexual abuse claims vary by state. Several states have extended them or opened special windows that allow older claims to be filed. Even if the abuse happened many years ago, it is worth a confidential conversation with a lawyer.
Frequently asked questions
Will my name be made public?
In many cases, survivors can proceed without their name becoming public. We will discuss your privacy options before anything is filed.
How much does it cost?
These cases are typically handled on a contingency fee basis, so you pay no attorney fees unless there is a recovery.
What if I am not ready to decide?
That is okay. A confidential conversation does not commit you to anything.
