No matter how long ago it happened or who the abuser was, sexual abuse leaves deep and lasting wounds. If you or your child is a survivor, you are not alone. The attorneys at Schwed, Adams & McGinley, P.A. are here to listen, support, and pursue justice on your terms.
Who Can Be Held Accountable in a Civil Lawsuit?
Sexual abuse doesn't occur in isolation. Often, abusers are protected by systems or people in power. In a civil claim, our team may pursue liability against:
- Individual perpetrators
- Schools or religious institutions that concealed complaints
- Employers who failed to perform background checks or ignored misconduct
- Property owners with inadequate security measures
- Youth organizations, camps, or sports programs with poor supervision
We investigate each case thoroughly, gathering the evidence needed to hold every responsible party accountable. Our attorneys handle this process with discretion, care, and deep respect for your privacy.
