About CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE in the Mormon Church

LDS - Mormon Church

 We handle civil cases against religious institutions, including the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), involving sexual abuse by clergy, youth leaders, and volunteers. Survivors of abuse in the LDS system often face significant internal pressure and isolation. The most important thing survivors should know is that you have legal rights independent of the Church’s internal processes, and confidentiality or cover-ups by leadership do not erase your right to seek justice.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR RIGHTS

LEGAL SUPPORT & ADVOCACY

LEGAL SUPPORT & ADVOCACY

Every state has its own laws about how long you have to take legal action (this is called a “statute of limitations”). But many states have changed their laws to give adult survivors more time.


Even if you think it’s “too late” — it might not be. We’ll help you understand your rights based on where you live, and if you want to move forward, we’ll support you through the process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at CSAClaims@jasonjoylaw.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Yes, you may still have a legal claim. In many states, clergy and other trusted leaders — including LDS bishops — are required to report child abuse when they learn about it. Even if your disclosure was years ago, and even if the Church handled it internally, that doesn’t remove your legal right to seek justice. Many states now allow survivors to file claims years or even decades after the abuse occurred.


You don’t need proof of a criminal conviction to file a civil case. Many survivors wait to come forward because their abuser was trusted or admired, and they feared they wouldn’t be believed. Often, once one survivor speaks out, others often feel empowered to come forward about the same abuser, and that leads to criminal investigations and convictions. Your experience matters, and you still have rights, no matter how long it’s been.


Yes. In most cases, you can file your claim under a pseudonym (e.g., Jane/John Doe) to protect your identity. Your privacy is a priority!
