Sexual abuse leaves lasting physical and emotional distress. But in California, survivors have legal rights that go far beyond what the criminal justice system can offer.
Employment law governs the rights and obligations between employers and employees, covering workplace discrimination, wage and hour issues, contracts, and labor relations.
Medical malpractice can not only cause lasting physical damage but also fill you with doubt.
Our attorneys represent clients in complex class action lawsuits involving corporate misconduct, defective products, consumer fraud, and other widespread harms, working to hold negligent companies accountable and pursue meaningful results for affected individuals.
A Reputation for Quality
If you've been harmed by the same defective product, unsafe drug, deceptive business practice, or other widespread misconduct as others, you may qualify to join a class action lawsuit. Class actions allow individuals to pursue justice together while seeking compensation for financial losses, injuries, or other damages caused by the defendant's actions.
If you were injured because of someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, future treatment costs, and other damages. Every personal injury case is unique, and the value of your claim depends on the severity of your injuries and the impact they have had on your life.
Survivors of sexual abuse may have the right to file a civil lawsuit against the individual responsible and, in many cases, the institution or organization that failed to prevent the abuse. A successful claim can help recover compensation for medical care, therapy, emotional distress, lost income, and other damages while holding negligent parties accountable.
