If you or a loved one is the victim of sexual abuse, you may think only about pressing criminal charges. However, the law also entitles you to compensation, which a compassionate and experienced sexual assault attorney can help you pursue.
Though you may feel as if no amount of money can help you overcome the trauma you endured, consider the bigger picture. A monetary award can help you pay for much-needed counseling, ongoing medical expenses, lost wages and costs associated with emotional trauma. Most importantly, your courageousness can send the message to your abuser and others that victims are not without a voice, and that future instances of assault will not go unpunished.
