IF YOU ARE IN IMMEDIATE DANGER, CALL 9-1-1
Step

Preserve Evidence

To preserve evidence that may be important to your case, avoid showering, collect clothing and bedding in a plastic bag, and document what happened while it is fresh in your mind. While it is possible to pursue a case without bioligical evidence, it can be valuable for your case.

Step
02

File a Police Report

Reporting sexual assault to the authorities may be a difficult step, especially when the crime is commited by someone you know, but documenting the assault while it is fresh in your mind and while evidence may still be preserved can greatly assist your case.

Step
03

Seek Medical Treatment

When seeking medical treatment, be sure to report the abuse during your examination, as your physicians will be required to report the incident and will attempt to identify and preserve evidence that may assist your case.

Step
04

Connect with Emotional Support

It is important to recongnize that you are not alone one your path to surviving sexual abuse. There are many resources and people trained to assist you during this difficult time.

Step
05

Retain Legal Representation

Surviors of sexual assault are entitled to pursue a civil lawsuit to receive monetary compensation for the trauma and injuries thay have suffered. Our legal advisors are standing by and ready to represent your case for the maximum monetary results possible.

EMPOWERING PARENTAL ADVOCACY

Unfortunately, the lack of information can often result in survivors of sexual abuse losing the right to sue and get justice. We believe in helping survivors and their families access all the information that they need to understand their rights based on state and federal law and the legal options available to them.
Can Survivors of Sexual Abuse Remain Anonymous While Seeking Justice?

Far too often, survivors of sexual violence fear seeking justice out of shame, retribution, and embarrassment. In fact, the legal process for obtaining legal justice can be pursued without disclosing the identity of the survivor to the general public.

While laws vary from state-to-state, under California Penal Code Section 293, survivors of sexual assault and harassment have the option to maintain confidentiality by keeping their names private when pursuing legal action against perpetrators. Our legal advocates are here to guide you through the considerations of filing a lawsuit under an assumed name, providing insights into the advantages and disadvantages.

For How Long After a Sexual Assault Can a Legal Case Be Brought to Trial?

In California, survivors have until their 40th birthday to seek legal action for abuse survived during their childhood. Considerations for repressed trauma may extend this period to up to 5 years after abuse was first discovered.

How to Limit Emotional Trauma for Survivors During Legal Proceedings?

Our team of compassionate lawyers prioritizes empathy in every step of the legal process and never push clients to speak about triggering responses or pressure survivors into pursuing a case in which they aren’t able to talk.

When a client comes to us, we patiently listen to their account, and then proceed to viligantly pursue justice against their abusers. No individual is too powerful, and no institution is too powerful for us to engage with.
