Las Vegas Group Home Sexual Abuse Lawyer
Group homes in the Las Vegas area are meant to provide care, protection, and stability for vulnerable individuals. Tragically, these spaces sometimes become the very places where sexual abuse and sexual assault occur. Survivors—including children, individuals with disabilities, and the elderly—often suffer in silence due to fear, isolation, or lack of access to trusted support.
Greenberg Gross LLP is a personal injury law firm dedicated to representing sexual assault survivors and holding the liable parties accountable. Our experienced legal team is committed to fighting for the justice and financial compensation survivors deserve. Whether the abuse involved inappropriate touching, sexual misconduct by staff, or full sexual acts, we are here to stand with you and seek justice through every available legal avenue.
Sexual Abuse in Las Vegas Group Homes
Sexual abuse within Las Vegas group homes can range from seemingly subtle violations to overtly violent sexual assault cases. Many survivors experience repeated abuse by caretakers, peers, or other individuals who exploit their position of authority or trust. These incidents are not isolated—many clients come forward reporting patterns of abuse, often involving the same individuals or institutions.
These acts may include:
- Forced or coerced sexual acts
- Inappropriate touching or groping
- Statutory rape of minors
- Repeated sexual misconduct by caregivers
- Sexual violence committed in settings lacking oversight
Survivors often face severe medical expenses, emotional trauma, and long-term psychological effects. Greenberg Gross LLP is equipped with the legal experience, trial lawyers, and compassion required to guide survivors through the legal process.
The Legal Rights of Sexual Assault Survivors in Nevada
Under Nevada law, survivors of sexual abuse can pursue a civil lawsuit against perpetrators and the institutions that failed to prevent or address the abuse. These civil claims offer survivors the opportunity to recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, and emotional suffering.
Our Legal Services Include:
- Civil lawsuits against individuals and institutions
- Free consultation and legal guidance to understand your options
- Legal representation on a contingency fee basis—you pay our firm no upfront costs
- Personal injury case management, including medical records collection and video footage review
- Settlement negotiations and, when necessary, aggressive courtroom litigation
We also help survivors gather evidence and understand the unique circumstances surrounding their case. This may involve interviewing other victims, analyzing staff logs, and working with expert witnesses to build the strongest possible claim.
