Why Hire Fighter Law for Sex Crime Victim Representation?

  • Confidential & Trauma-Informed Approach – We prioritize your safety and emotional well-being, ensuring that you remain in control of your case.
  • Aggressive Legal Action Against Perpetrators – Whether it’s filing a civil lawsuit, pursuing a protective order, or working with law enforcement, we fight relentlessly for justice.

Legal Options for Survivors of Sexual Assault & Abuse

Survivors of sexual violence have several legal options to seek justice:

1. Filing a Civil Lawsuit Against the Perpetrator

  • A civil lawsuit allows victims to hold their abuser financially accountable.
  • Compensation can cover medical expenses, therapy costs, lost wages, and emotional distress.
  • Civil cases have a lower burden of proof than criminal cases, increasing the likelihood of a favorable outcome.
  • Statute of Limitations: Florida law allows survivors a specific window of time to file a lawsuit. Speak with an attorney immediately to determine your eligibility.

2. Suing Third Parties for Negligence

In some cases, businesses, landlords, employers, schools, and other institutions may be held responsible for allowing sexual abuse to occur. Examples include:

  • Hotels & Property Owners: Failing to provide adequate security (e.g., poor lighting, lack of security cameras).
  • Bars & Nightclubs: Over-serving alcohol, leading to sexual violence incidents.
  • Employers: Failing to act on sexual harassment or assault complaints.
  • Universities & Schools: Not protecting students from faculty, staff, or student predators.
  • Religious Institutions: Covering up clergy sexual abuse cases.

3. Filing for an Injunction (Restraining Order)

Florida law allows survivors to seek an injunction for protection against sexual violence, which prevents the offender from contacting, harassing, or coming near the victim.

4. Pursuing Criminal Charges Against the Offender

  • While criminal cases are handled by the state, our legal team can assist you in navigating the process and ensuring your rights as a victim are protected.
  • Our attorneys can work with law enforcement to advocate for charges and assist you in testifying if necessary.

5. Applying for Victim Compensation in Florida

  • Survivors may be eligible for financial compensation through the Florida Victim Compensation Program.
  • This can help cover medical bills, lost income, relocation assistance, and therapy costs.
  • Learn more at Florida Attorney General’s Crime Victims Services.
