No survivor should suffer in silence. If you or your child has experienced sexual abuse or assault, you are not alone—and you do have options. At Schwed, Adams & McGinley, P.A., our Memphis attorneys offer a combination of compassionate support and aggressive advocacy to help you pursue justice on your own terms.
Who Can Be Held Liable in a Sexual Abuse Claim?
Survivors often face not just a perpetrator, but a system of failure that allowed abuse to happen—or continue. In a civil sexual abuse case, we may seek accountability from:
- Individual offenders
- Religious leaders or organizations that covered up abuse
- Schools, universities, or camps with a history of negligence
- Property owners who failed to provide basic security
- Employers or managers who ignored warning signs or complaints
Our Memphis attorneys conduct in-depth investigations and partner with experts to build strong, fact-based cases. We don't back down from institutions, and we don't let them hide behind policy or red tape.
