There is never true justice for survivors of sexual abuse as the effects of sexual abuse are life altering; however, if you or a loved one were sexually abused, there may be an opportunity to recover compensation which may help with financial hardship or therapeutic needs caused by the abuse. The focus after experiencing sexual abuse should be on personal recovery, not financial worries.

Many states have changed laws pertaining to sexual abuse. New York, New Jersey, and California have created windows to file lawsuits, allowing those who were abused as children to bring claims within a limited period of time no
matter how long ago the abuse occurred. Other states have extended the statute of limitations (amount of time you have to bring law suit). It is never too late to heal. Contact McSweeney Law Firm to learn of your options.

Generally, when you sue a governmental entity for sexual abuse there may be a limit to how much money you can recover. Title IX is a federal law that may apply to claims against public schools, colleges or universities, which eliminates the recovery limit. Title IX is complex so it’s important you hire an attorney who is knowledgeable in this area.
Contact McSweeney Law Firm so that we may explain your rights under Title IX. Do not delay in contacting us as there may be a limited time to file your claim.
