Sexual Abuse Lawyer

Sexual abuse and harassment are mentally and emotionally devastating to its victims. Whether the harassment, abuse, or assault occurs at the hands of a family member, mentor,

co-worker, clergy, teacher, counselor, or caregiver, the effects can be devastating and can last a lifetime. This type of conduct can take place anywhere, including in a place of worship, in the office or workplace, at a school or camp, in a public space or at home.

The attorneys at Jaroslawicz & Jaros have successfully represented children and adults who have been victims of: Sexual abuse and assault; Workplace sexual harassment; and Sexual abuse of a minor. Our firm has represented victims of sexual abuse and rape by a priest and teachers, as well as sexual assaults by other students while at school, rape by a sibling that was not reported by the school as it should have been, and even abuse of a client by her own lawyer. Our clients received just compensation for the anguish and torment they incurred from these sexual predators.

Many victims are reluctant to sue their abuser because they do not want their names and the facts to become public information. The good news is that if you are suing because you were abused, you can file your lawsuit without using your name or revealing your identity – the suit is filed as a John or Jane Doe so that you can maintain your privacy.
