Did you know: In Connecticut if you don't remember your abuse by age 35 you have no legal recourse. In New Jersey you only have 5 years after age 18 to sue your perpetrator.
When you've been sexually abused what are your rights?
What do you do?
Who do you turn to?
I am compiling this list as an aid to those wishing to pursue
legal action against their perpetrator. If you can add any
attorney's to my list, please e-mail me with the proper
information. I wish to thank those listed below, and the many attorneys who work tirelessly to protect victims of sexual abuse. This surely cannot be an easy arena to practice in.
Together we can make a difference!
