Home » Flint Sex Abuse Lawyer
Sexual abuse inflicts deep and lasting trauma, affecting victims physically, emotionally, and psychologically. In the United States, a person falls victim to sexual abuse almost once a minute, a harrowing statistic from RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network.
The neglect of organizations in safeguarding individuals and their attempts to conceal such abuses is alarming. Every survivor, including those in Flint, Michigan, deserves respect and qualified legal representation in their path toward healing and justice.
In Flint, as is the case in many parts of Michigan, sexual abuse can occur in environments typically perceived as safe, such as educational facilities, workplaces, youth organizations, and places of worship.
At TopDog Law, our founder, James Helm, leads a team of Flint Sex Abuse Lawyers dedicated to challenging these institutions, ensuring their accountability, and standing in unity with survivors of sexual abuse.
Our goal is to advocate for the rights of these individuals and ensure they receive the justice they rightfully deserve.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
TopDog Law combines national-level capabilities with a specific focus on Flint, Michigan, providing a unique blend of resources and local representation. Our team’s comprehensive understanding of Flint’s legal environment, combined with our extensive experience, ensures top-tier case management and legal skills tailored to each client’s specific needs.
Our commitment to survivors is showcased in our involvement in significant cases like the Devereux Lawsuit.
In this lawsuit, we represent survivors of childhood sexual abuse against the Devereux Foundation and its affiliates, revealing patterns of abuse in what should have been safe spaces. Our legal actions began with a groundbreaking lawsuit for 13 survivors and continue with ongoing efforts to secure justice for those impacted.
Our dedication includes ensuring that survivors in Flint receive complete and fair compensation that acknowledges the comprehensive impact of sexual abuse.
Like in other Michigan cities, sexual abuse reports in Flint have emerged from many settings.
Some common examples include:
Often, a victim knows the perpetrator well, making it even more emotionally challenging. You need objective legal representation to help you seek justice against your or your child’s abuser.
The necessity for comprehensive sexual assault and harassment education is underscored by legislative actions like Senate Bill 66, highlighting the importance of awareness and prevention. However, the damage and harm has already been done in many cases.
In May 2021, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed a package of bills that extended the statute of limitations for sexual abuse survivors from 10 years to 15 years after the crime or until the victim turns 28 years old, whichever is later. The bills also allowed survivors to sue institutions that employed or supervised their abusers, such as schools, churches, or sports organizations. This opens the door for victims of past abuse to take legal action in civil court.
