Sexual abuse survivors across Savannah and Chatham County face a legal system that can feel designed to protect institutions rather than the people they harmed. Georgia's laws on institutional liability allow survivors to hold schools, churches, employers, and youth organizations accountable when those institutions knew or should have known about abuse and failed to act. Savannah's diverse community, including Savannah State University students, SCAD students, young people in youth programs across Eastside and West Savannah, and workers in the hospitality and tourism industry, includes people who deserve support and legal advocacy. TopDog fights to get you every dollar you deserve.
Savannah is a city of institutions: universities, churches, schools, and a large tourism and hospitality employer base. When those institutions fail to protect the people in their care, TopDog is ready to hold them accountable. Survivors across Eastside, Cuyler/Brownville, West Savannah, and Southside communities often face additional barriers, financial pressure, distrust of the legal system, and lack of knowledge about their rights. Those barriers should never stand between you and justice. We fight to get injured people the care and money they deserve.
Institutions and their insurers across Chatham County may use delay, denial, and intimidation to minimize and silence survivors. They have legal teams working to protect the organization's reputation and limit financial exposure. We know how to leverage the justice system in Georgia courts to fight back, for both justice and the financial recovery that helps survivors rebuild their lives.
IMPORTANT GEORGIA LEGAL INFORMATION, SEXUAL ABUSE

This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.
Insurance companies and institutions may use delay, denial, and intimidation to silence survivors and minimize claims. What was done to you has real financial value, therapy costs, lost wages, emotional distress, and in institutional cases, punitive damages. Both justice and financial recovery are valid motivations. TopDog Law and its co-counsel fight for the full value of your case.
