We Will Not Let Your Right to Compensation Expire
The state of California limits the time you have to recover damages for sexual abuse. If your case cannot be resolved with an insurance settlement, you can file a lawsuit against the perpetrator.
The statute of limitations in sexual abuse cases has recently been extended in certain types of cases. If you were an adult (18 years old or older) at the time the abuse took place, you must comply with the state’s filing deadline. You are generally required to file your lawsuit within ten years of:
- The date the last act of abuse took place
- The date the last act of abuse was attempted
If you were diagnosed with an injury or illness that resulted from sexual abuse, you generally have three years from the date of discovery to file your lawsuit.
