Are you ready to find an experienced lawyer committed to holding sexual abusers accountable? Call (713) 231-5633, or contact us online today to get started.

Sexual abuse is prevalent in today’s world, but it often goes unreported. The targets of this crime, overcome with shame and fear, frequently choose to remain silent.

But there’s a long-overdue movement toward holding perpetrators accountable. Survivors need empathy and support to empower them to report these crimes and demand that offenders pay for their actions.

A Houston sexual abuse attorney can hold not just the individual who abused your or your loved one accountable, but the employers and volunteer organizations that negligently hired and supervised them, too.

TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers’ network of Houston sexual abuse attorneys provides top care and tireless representation to survivors of this horrendous crime. Whether you’re facing a large corporation, a powerful individual, or some other figure, the attorneys in our network have the experience to deliver justice in your sexual abuse case.

By calling us to get connected to a local sexual abuse lawyer, you do more than empower yourself. You protect others from the person who abused you and the institution that hired and might have even shielded them rather than protecting you.

Sexual Abuse Comes in Many Forms

There are, unfortunately, many kinds of sexual abuse:

Sexual assault, such as rape and unwanted sexual contact
Child sexual abuse, which occurs on average 463,634 times per year in our society
Sexual assault of men and boys can present more challenges because of societal attitudes and stereotypes
Intimate partner sexual violence that occurs within relationships
Incest and unwanted sexual contact from a family member
Drug-facilitated sexual assault
Stalking, which can escalate into greater threats
Using technology such as digital photos, videos, apps, or social media for harassment or unwanted sexual interactions
Sexual exploitation by care providers who exploit their position of trust for sexual purposes
Elder abuse

In many of these cases, survivors might blame themselves, but survivors are never responsible for sexual abuse. Get an attorney to support you and hold the offender accountable.

Damages in Sexual Abuse Cases

Guilty verdicts in sexual abuse cases often assess damages. These are compensation for the losses suffered by the survivors and can include compensatory, non-economic, and punitive damages. Here’s a breakdown of each.

Compensatory Damages for Sexual Abuse

Compensatory damages compensate the survivors for their injuries and losses.

They can include:

Medical expenses – Covering costs related to medical evaluations, injury treatment, emotional trauma counseling, and medications
Lost wages – Compensation for income lost during recovery
Loss of earning capacity – If the abuse affects a survivor’s ability to earn income in the future
Property damage – For any property damaged during the incident

Non-Economic Damages for Sexual Abuse

Non-economic damages can vary because they’re less tangible.

They may include:

Emotional distress – Compensation for the psychological impact of the assault
Pain and suffering – Covering the pain endured by the survivor
Loss of consortium – Compensation for the effects on personal relationships
Loss of enjoyment of life – Reflecting the diminished quality of life due to the abuse

Punitive Damages for Sexual Abuse

Punitive damages punish the wrongdoer and discourage similar actions in the future.

An experienced attorney will build a solid case to explain why you deserve maximum compensation for your sexual abuse case.

How to Prepare for Your Sexual Abuse Case

To pursue a sexual abuse case against the perpetrator:

Be diligent about medical treatments and counseling – Make your health and well-being your top priorities. Seek counseling if you haven’t already because sexual abuse can have long-lasting implications on your mental health.
Save items associated with the assault – Gather and store any items without washing them, including clothing, bedding, or anything that might contain the perpetrator’s DNA. Immediately turn these items over to the police or to our lawyers.
Compile a complete account of the assault – A detailed, honest account of what happened is another essential element of your case. Include information about the assault, date/time, location, and other relevant details. Do this immediately because memories fade over time, and store it in a safe place.
Consider reporting the incident to the police – Authorities often label sexual assault, particularly rape, the most underreported crime in the U.S., with more than two of every three rapes going unreported. Sexual assault survivors often feel shame after the crime and don’t want others to know about it. In this case, you can file a blind report to report the assault without initially revealing your identity.
Get emotional support – You’ll have to discuss sensitive personal information when preparing a sexual abuse case, so it often helps to have a family member or a lawyer with you when talking with the police.

Every sexual assault survivor deserves justice and the chance to heal. Consult a Houston sexual abuse attorney in our network to hold abusers accountable.
