If you or someone you love survived sexual abuse, you are entitled to justice. Obtaining criminal justice, though, is not always sufficient. As a survivor, you could also be entitled to recover financial compensation. Compensation can come from the perpetrator and others who are liable for the abuse you endured. Recovering damages on your own can be challenging and emotionally charged.
Fortunately, you do not have to fight for compensation on your own. Our San Fernando Valley sexual abuse lawyer at Greenberg Gross will handle complex settlement negotiations on your behalf. If your case cannot be resolved with a settlement, we will represent you in court.

Liability for Sexual Abuse in California
Accountability for sexual abuse may not rest solely with the perpetrator. At Greenberg Gross, our sexual abuse lawyer representing survivors in San Fernando Valley will build a strong case for compensation against:
- Mandated reporters
- Sports team coaches

- Income loss when the abuse or its physical or emotional aftermath prevent you from returning to work
- Pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and loss of enjoyment of life that resulted from the abuse you endured
Our legal team treats you like an individual, not a case file. Every case is unique and the types and amounts of damages we request will vary according to the specific details of your case.
California’s Sexual Abuse Statute of Limitations
You are entitled to recover damages as a sexual abuse survivor. In California, the time you have to do so is limited. Because the state imposes multiple statutes of limitations on sexual abuse cases, it can be difficult to define yours without legal guidan
The appropriate filing deadline is determined by your age when the abuse occurred. Victims of child sexual abuse have an extended statute of limitations.
When our law firm handles your case, our investigation will prove the applicable filing deadline in your case. We also will make sure your potential lawsuit is filed on time to avoid the risks associated with an expired statute of limitations.
