Our law firm represents injured students and their families in the civil courts, not criminal, seeking damages to compensate them for losses and harm. Our Northridge, CA school sex abuse lawyer seeks justice on your behalf, and while we know that no amount of money can undo what happened to your child, a fair settlement can provide you with the means to get treatment for your child, or even move somewhere safer to start fresh.

The impact of abuse in a school setting can follow a child for years, even a lifetime. As a parent, your anger and need for justice are completely understandable. Let us help your family shine a light on predators and the systems that allow them access to children. We’re here to pursue accountability for everyone involved and help you seek the justice California law allows.
Schools in California, public, private, and charter, all have a legal duty to protect the students in their care from harm, including sexual abuse and harassment. When a school fails in this duty of care, both the institution and any individuals involved can be held responsible for the harm the child(ren) suffer and their families’ financial losses. This is called civil liability, and asserting your rights in this area is what our firm does best. We have a strong history of successfully litigating civil cases against schools and educators. While criminal charges may also be filed, our role is to guide you through the civil claim process against the perpetrator, the school, and the district.
The legal process of filing a complaint and pursuing compensation can be emotional and challenging for many families, but as far as serving justice, it may be the only way to hold certain parties accountable. You can’t put a school in jail, for example, but the abuse and those involved should be named on the public record. And, the damages we recover can cover expenses such as medical care, therapy, and parents’ lost time from work, plus consideration for the child’s pain and trauma. We’ll help get you there.
