What Can a Columbus Sexual Abuse Lawyer Do for You?

When you turn to a Columbus sexual abuse lawyer for legal support, you can count on your representative to:

• Investigate the nature of your abuse
• Compile evidence identifying the party responsible for your mistreatment
• Estimate the total value of the losses you endured as a result of your abuse
• Compile their findings into a personal injury claim that meets the civil system’s formatting standards
• Stay on top of your case’s filing deadlines
• Prevent an abuser from coming into contact with you while your case progresses
• Represent your best interests in and out of civil court
• Provide you with the resources you need to continue recovering after your case concludes

John Foy & Associates brings over two decades of experience to your pursuit of a sexual abuse claim. You can count on our staff to maintain open communication with you as we learn more about your right to hold someone accountable for the sexual violence you suffered. You can bring any questions you have about the civil system and your fight to our team at any time.

What’s more, our team does not require you to pay a deposit to begin working with an attorney. We work on contingency, meaning we only get paid once we secure the settlement you need to recover from your losses. You will not receive a bill from us while your case is in progress.

You Have the Right to Civil and Criminal Action

You may have the right to connect with local police officers and request a criminal investigation into the mistreatment you suffered at the hands of an abuser. You can work with a lawyer to break down the logistics of pursuing a violent victimization case while simultaneously developing your sexual abuse civil case.

We Fight for the Compensation You Deserve

When you pursue a sexual abuse claim alongside a Columbus sexual abuse attorney, you have the right to ask for a settlement that addresses your economic and non-economic losses. 

You can make it easier for us to ask for compensation on your behalf by keeping track of the costs associated with your recovery. If you need emergency medical services or rape care following an instance of abuse, keep your invoices. If you need to pursue therapy, keep your bills. We can ask for compensation based on your:

• Medical expenses
• Mental health care and restorative treatments
• Wages lost during time spent away from work
• Lost income after quitting a job to escape an abuser
• Property damage

You can also work with our team to assign a dollar value to losses like your emotional distress, mental anguish, and pain. While this support won’t erase what happened to you, it can stabilize your finances and give you the emotional space you need to prioritize your physical and mental health.
