Sexual Abuse Litigation Lawyer FAQs
What if my abuse happened years ago?
Many survivors can still bring a civil case even if the abuse happened long ago, especially when they were children at the time. Deadlines can be complicated, so it is essential to consult with a lawyer to understand how the law applies to your specific situation.
Do I have to report to the police first?
You can explore a civil case even if you never made a criminal report or the prosecutor declined to file charges. A civil lawsuit is about accountability and compensation, and it follows different rules and standards of proof.
Will my name be public?
In many civil sexual abuse cases, courts allow survivors to proceed using initials or "Doe" to help protect their privacy. Your legal team can request these protections from the court and discuss what will and will not be part of the public record.
What if the abuser has no money?
Civil cases often seek compensation from institutions that enabled the abuse, such as schools, youth organizations, religious institutions, or businesses, not just the individual abuser. An attorney can investigate who may share legal responsibility for what happened.
How much will it cost to hire you?
Fight for Survivors typically handles these cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay fees up front and only owe attorney's fees if there is a financial recovery. During your consultation, the team will explain the fee structure, so you know exactly what to expect.
