45.9k

Survivors of sexual abuse in Salisbury, Maryland, deserve compassionate legal support and the opportunity to pursue justice. Whether the abuse occurred in childhood or adulthood, victims have the right to file a civil lawsuit against the perpetrator—and in many cases, the institution that allowed the abuse to happen.

At our firm, we represent clients throughout Maryland who have experienced abuse in churches, schools, daycare centers, medical practices, and other trusted settings. We help survivors hold individuals and negligent organizations accountable through the civil justice system.

Civil Liability Beyond the Abuser

In many cases, abuse is not an isolated incident. Survivors may have legal grounds to sue:

Religious organizations that concealed allegations
School districts that failed to act on warning signs
Healthcare facilities where misconduct was ignored
Employers or agencies that failed to supervise staff
Group homes or foster systems with known risks

Even if a criminal case was never pursued—or if it failed—civil law offers another path to justice.

Damages in Sexual Abuse Lawsuits May Include:

Reimbursement for therapy and medical treatment
Compensation for emotional pain and suffering
Lost wages or lost earning potential
Damages for long-term trauma
Punitive damages for gross misconduct or cover-ups

We work closely with mental health professionals, investigators, and survivor advocates to build a strong, confidential case that focuses on your healing and empowerment.
