WHY HIRE AN ATTORNEY FOR MY CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE TRAUMA?
That’s a powerful question — and it’s one that deserves a clear, honest answer. There are very important reasons why someone might need an attorney in the aftermath of childhood sexual abuse, especially if they’re coming forward years later. Here's why:
PROTECTION & ADVOCACY
Survivors often face systems (legal, institutional, or otherwise) that can be confusing, intimidating, or even retraumatizing. An attorney serves as an advocate — someone who understands the law and makes sure your rights are protected every step of the way.
Understanding Legal Options
Childhood sexual assault can involve:
- Civil lawsuits (e.g. suing the perpetrator or an institution that enabled or covered it up)
- Criminal charges (which the state prosecutes, but a survivor may still need legal representation to participate)
- Statute of limitations issues (laws vary by state on how long someone has to file) A lawyer helps navigate these complexities and figure out what's actually possible.
PURSUING COMPENSATION
If an institution (like a school, church, or youth organization) failed to protect a child, a civil lawsuit could lead to financial compensation. An attorney helps build that case, gather evidence, deal with insurance companies, and ensure survivors aren't taken advantage of.
