Tragically, sexual abuse, rape, and child abuse are epidemic in our country. Every year, there are around 293,000 victims of sexual assault in the United States. See https://rainn.org/statistics. In other words, about every 107 seconds another person is sexually assaulted. See id.

Sadly, the criminal justice system often fails to bring justice to the victims of sexually related crimes. In fact, ninety-eight (98) percent of rapists will never spend a day in prison or jail. See id. With such problems in the criminal justice system, you may ask where you or your loved one can turn for help if you have been the victim of a sexually related crime.

What many people do not know is that the injuries one sustains as a result of sexual abuse, rape, child abuse, or other sexually related crimes—including pain and suffering, medical and therapy bills, and physical harm—are considered as a personal injury. Accordingly, one can receive redress for such harm through a civil lawsuit in the courts.

While nothing can ever change what happened, you can receive justice for you and your family, and compensation for the harm you and your family have suffered.
