Cambridge Sexual Abuse Lawyer
Sexual abuse leaves the survivor with a lifetime of trauma and pain. We rejoice to see abusers behind bars for a long time, but we know that seeing the person who abused you punished is just one step in your healing journey. Many victims require ongoing psychological therapy and care, and the costs can quickly add up. You may be eligible to seek compensation from the abuser and any other party whose negligence or inaction created conditions for the abuse to occur (like a school, youth organization, or religious institution). Our Cambridge, MA sexual abuse lawyer can help you understand the civil rights survivors like you have. Call Fogelman Law LLC today for a consultation.
Sexual Abuse Lawyer Cambridge, MA
Our legal advocacy services pick up where the criminal justice system leaves off. We help victims of sexual assault pursue fair compensation from the perpetrator of the assault, any other individuals or entities connected to the incident. For instance, if you were assaulted in the workplace, we may pursue a claim for damages against the individual who caused you harm, as well as your employer, citing their negligence and failure to provide a safe, secure working environment.
We know that no amount of money can restore you to who you were before the abuse and assault occurred. Any compensation we seek isn’t meant to be “hush money.” Rather, it represents a form of justice against an entity you cannot put in jail, such as an employer or an educational institution. Any civil suit filed in a Massachusetts court creates a public record of what happened, exposing misdeeds to light and holding every party involved accountable.
