What Is Considered Sexual Abuse?

If you believe you are a victim of sexual abuse but aren’t sure if what you experienced qualifies as sexual abuse under the law, you’ll want to consult with a sexual abuse lawyer. They can listen to your story and help you determine if you should take legal action against the offending party. Broadly speaking, sexual abuse is behavior or contact of a sexual nature that is performed without the other party’s consent. Sexual abuse can include unwanted sexual touching, forced sexual acts, attempted rape, and nonconsensual penetration.

If you’ve been sexually abused by someone in one of the settings listed above, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit for compensation.

Financial Remedies Available to Victims of Sexual Abuse

When you meet with an attorney from our team, they’ll ask you about the financial losses and negative emotional impacts you’ve suffered due to sexual abuse. The testimony and evidence you provide can help them secure the correct amount of compensation. If your case is successful, you could receive the following financial remedies:

Lost wages

If you had to take time off from work to recover from the sexual abuse you experienced, these damages can help make up for the income you missed out on during your leave.

Medical expenses

If you suffered a physical injury from sexual abuse, these damages can pay for your medical care, including hospitalization, doctor’s appointments, medications, and more.

Emotional distress

Experiencing sexual abuse can make you feel helpless and may lead to deep psychological issues. If you’ve experienced emotional distress as a result of the abuse you’ve suffered, these damages can help you cope with the trauma and psychological consequences you’re dealing with.

Punitive damages

Depending on your situation, your attorney may seek punitive damages to punish the offending party and deter others from committing similar offenses in the future. An Alabama sexual abuse lawyer can determine if these damages are appropriate for your case.

Our firm believes that sexual abuse victims shouldn’t have to pay outrageous attorney’s fees just to get access to the damages listed above. That’s why our firm operates on a contingency fee basis. Instead of charging you an upfront fee, we’ll take a portion of your settlement. In other words, “We Only Get Paid if We Win for You.”
