Individual child molesters
Child molesters can be almost anyone. Often, however, the offender is both known to the child and is in a position of authority over him or her. Some examples include:
Organizations who fail to prevent the abuse
Many abusers are associated with organizations such as churches, schools and youth organizations such as scouts, after-school clubs and sports organizations. When abuse occurs, the organization is guilty of failing to protect the children in their care from molestation and other forms of abuse. In many cases, our child molestation lawsuits are filed against both the individual offender and the organization that failed to prevent the abuse.
Securing resources for treatment for victims of child molestation
At our law firm, we work to obtain compensation for the injustice and injury done to our clients. Victims of child molesters often have lifelong psychological and emotional problems.
