Sexual abuse is a deeply traumatic experience, leaving behind marks of physical, emotional, and psychological harm on its victims. In the United States, an alarming incident of sexual abuse occurs every 68 seconds, a sobering fact reported by RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network.
The failure of organizations to protect victims and their subsequent efforts to conceal such abuse are grave concerns. Every survivor of sexual abuse deserves the highest level of care and legal representation in their quest for justice and healing.
In Lansing, as across Michigan, sexual abuse can occur in settings generally regarded as safe, including schools, workplaces, youth-based institutions, and religious organizations.
At TopDog Law, led by our founder, James Helm, we are dedicated to challenging these organizations, holding them accountable, and standing in solidarity with survivors of sexual abuse. Our Lansing Sex Abuse Lawyers strive to advocate for their rights and ensure they achieve the justice they deserve.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
Sexual abuse in Lansing has been reported in diverse settings, mirroring the trends observed statewide. Recent legislative actions, such as Senate Bill 66, highlight the need for comprehensive sexual assault and harassment education, emphasizing the importance of awareness and prevention.
Insurance companies, in their efforts to protect their financial interests, often use tactics that can undermine the survivor’s claim. They may attempt to minimize the severity of the psychological and emotional impacts of the abuse or challenge the credibility and reliability of the survivor’s account.
Such approaches not only add to the stress of survivors but can also unjustly limit their access to deserved compensation.
At TopDog Law, we know these tactics and are well-prepared to counter them. Our approach begins with the thorough gathering and analysis of evidence. This includes not only the immediate details of the abuse but also a comprehensive examination of its long-term effects on the survivor’s life.
We work closely with medical professionals, psychologists, and therapists to document the full extent of the psychological trauma suffered. This documentation helps us illustrate the abuse’s profound and often long-lasting effects, countering any attempts by insurance companies to downplay this aspect of the claim.
We understand that the survivor’s credibility is often unfairly questioned. To address this, we prepare each case like it’s going to trial and ensure that every statement and piece of evidence is corroborated and presented clearly. This preparation includes gathering witness testimonies, medical reports, and, where applicable, expert opinions that reinforce the survivor’s account. Our legal team’s thorough preparation and attention to detail make it significantly more challenging for insurance companies to cast doubt on the survivor’s credibility.
In addition to building a strong factual foundation for each case, we also bring skilled negotiation tactics to the table. Insurance companies often aim to settle claims quickly and for as little as possible.
We leverage our extensive knowledge of sexual abuse cases and insurance law to negotiate settlements that truly reflect the full extent of the harm and loss suffered by the survivor.
This includes immediate medical expenses and therapy costs and factors in potential future medical needs, ongoing psychological support, and compensation for pain and suffering.
