Home » Lansing Sex Assault Lawyer
Sexual abuse is an incredibly traumatic experience, leaving lasting physical, emotional, and psychological scars on its victims. Every 68 seconds, an individual in the United States suffers from sexual abuse, a disturbing reality highlighted by RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network.
The failure of organizations to protect victims and their attempts to cover up these acts are deeply troubling. Each victim deserves the highest level of care and legal representation in their pursuit of justice and healing with Lansing Sex Abuse Lawyers.
In Lansing, as in other parts of Michigan, sexual abuse can tragically occur in places typically considered safe – schools, workplaces, youth-based institutions, and religious organizations.
At TopDog Law, our founder, James Helm, leads a dedicated team to challenge these organizations, hold them accountable, and stand with survivors of sexual abuse, advocating for their rights and the justice they deserve.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
A prime example of our commitment is the Devereux Lawsuit, where we represent survivors of childhood sexual abuse against the Devereux Foundation and its affiliates. These cases reveal a disturbing trend of abuse in environments meant to be safe.
Our action began with a landmark lawsuit for 13 survivors, the largest group survivor lawsuit against Devereux to date, uncovering systemic abuse and a culture of silence. We continue to file additional legal actions, underscoring our commitment to justice for the harmed.
We are dedicated to ensuring survivors receive full and fair compensation. Our approach covers all the ways sexual abuse has impacted your life.
The psychological impact of sexual abuse is profound and often the most challenging to quantify. Survivors may experience a range of emotional and mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and more. These conditions can disrupt every aspect of daily life, from personal relationships to the ability to participate in regular activities.
Our approach involves working closely with psychological experts to document the full extent of your emotional distress. We aim to translate the often invisible scars of psychological trauma into tangible terms that can be effectively communicated in a legal setting. This process may involve detailed psychological evaluations, expert testimony, and the use of personal journals or diaries. Our goal is to ensure that the severity of your emotional suffering is recognized and adequately compensated.
The physical consequences of sexual abuse often require medical treatment, therapy, and sometimes long-term healthcare. These medical expenses can be a significant financial burden. Our firm is dedicated to recovering the costs of all medical treatments related to the abuse. This includes immediate medical care, ongoing counseling, psychiatric treatment, and any specialized services required for your physical and mental recovery.
We document all your medical expenses and work with healthcare professionals to project future medical needs resulting from the abuse. We aim to secure a compensation package that covers not only your current medical bills but also any anticipated future medical expenses, ensuring that the cost of your recovery does not financially burden you.
Sexual abuse can have a substantial impact on your ability to work. This might manifest as time taken off for recovery, a reduced capacity to work, or even a complete inability to return to your previous employment. Lost income, therefore, becomes a critical component of your compensation.
Our team thoroughly assesses your work history, salary, and the impact the abuse has had on your career trajectory. We factor in the income lost and the potential future earnings and career opportunities impacted by the abuse. Whether it’s short-term income loss or long-term career impact, we fight to ensure that your compensation reflects the full extent of the economic loss you have suffered.
In each of these areas, our focus is on ensuring that you, as a survivor of sexual abuse in Lansing, receive the full and fair compensation you deserve. Our commitment at TopDog Law is to provide you with the support and legal representation necessary to handle these challenges and achieve a resolution that facilitates healing and recovery.
In Lansing, sexual abuse cases have been reported in a variety of settings, reflecting the statewide trend. Recent legislative actions in Michigan, like Senate Bill 66, emphasize the need for comprehensive sexual assault and harassment education, highlighting the critical need for awareness and prevention in these environments.
Insurance companies in sexual abuse cases may use several tactics to downplay the severity of psychological impacts or question your credibility as a survivor. TopDog Law builds strong, evidence-based cases and negotiates fair settlements that truly reflect the extent of your harm and loss.
