Clergy Sexual Abuse Victim

Have you or some one you know been a victim of sexual abuse from a member of the Clergy? Sexual abuse occurs in numerous forms and affects many types of victims. Sexual abuse can come in the form of one exposing one’s self, the performance of lewd acts, or even the showing of pornography. As a result, clergy sex abuse claims are extremely varied; parents may bring a claim on behalf of a child, or adults may file a claim relating to sexual abuse endured during childhood. No matter the details, clergy sexual abuse claims are extremely sensitive in nature and require the attention of experienced attorneys.

Even if the abuse happened many years ago, it may not be too late to file a claim. In many circumstances a claim can still be made against the church.
