Victims of Childhood Sex Abuse Can Seek Civil Justice in Court

Survivors of childhood sexual abuse hurt every day of their lives due to the acts committed against them at a period in their lives when they were the most vulnerable.  Such abuse is often committed by individuals known to the child and their family or while the child is at a known and trusted institution, like a school or a club.  The violation of trust is so horrific and damaging that it is often too painful for the child, who represses any recollection of the abuse until much later in life.  The psychological impact on the victim is very damaging and has very negative impact on their development into adulthood and as adults.

Achieving civil justice for victims of childhood sex abuse allows such victims to have the ability to take action in gaining a measure of control over their lives while being able to have the parties responsible for such abuse have to finally take responsibility for what occurred and pay compensation for the horrible damage they have caused.   Such compensation is often quite significant due to the nature of the damage caused.  If you are a victim of childhood sex abuse, call (215) 732-0306 (PA) or (856) 910-8900 (NJ) to speak with Daniel P.
