Child abuse cases are uniquely sensitive and require a legal representation with both capability and compassion. These types of cases often involve individuals placed in positions of trust—such as teachers, coaches, or caretakers—who have violated their responsibilities in the most egregious ways.
Minsky Law’s approach is centered on
- 1. Comprehensive Investigation: Minsky Law will gather and preserve crucial evidence to build a strong case.
- 2. Empathy and Confidentiality: Minsky Law understands the emotional toll these cases can take and handle all matters with the utmost sensitivity and discretion.
- 3. Accountability: Minsky Law seeks to hold offenders and enabling organizations accountable for their actions.
How long do you have to file a civil lawsuit to recover damages for child abuse?
While each case is unique and requires an independent review of the facts, generally in Pennsylvania, a person physically or psychologically harmed as a minor has until the age of 20 bring a civil lawsuit for their injuries. If a child was sexually abused, they may have until the age of 55 to bring a civil case. There may be other limitations and restrictions associated with you or your child’s claims.
Even if a victim has time to file a civil lawsuit, Minsky Law strongly urges victims and their families to immediately contact a child abuse lawyer to advise them of their rights, assist with the preservation of evidence, and to begin preparing their case.
