Frequently Asked Questions
Call us today to get answers specific to your case. We offer Free Consultations and only get paid if you win.
What is the difference between a criminal case and a civil case for sexual assault?
A criminal case is filed by the state to punish the perpetrator with jail or prison time. A civil case, however, is filed by the survivor to seek financial compensation for medical expenses, therapy, lost wages, and emotional suffering. Even if a criminal conviction does not happen, you can still win a civil case.
How long do I have to file a sexual assault lawsuit in California?
California has extended the statute of limitations for sexual assault claims, but deadlines still apply. Generally, survivors have 10 years from the assault or 3 years from the discovery of harm to file. For child sexual assault cases, victims may have until age 40. Speaking to a lawyer quickly ensures your case is not barred by time limits.
Who can be held responsible in a civil sexual assault case?
In addition to the perpetrator, institutions may also be liable, including:
- Employers who ignored harassment or unsafe workplaces
- Schools or universities that failed to act on complaints
- Property owners who neglected security
- Religious or community organizations that concealed abuse
What types of compensation can survivors recover?
Survivors may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical bills and ongoing therapy
- Lost income or reduced earning potential
- Pain and suffering, PTSD, and emotional trauma
- Relocation and safety expenses
- Punitive damages (to punish reckless or intentional misconduct)
Do I have to go to court if I file a sexual assault lawsuit?
Not always. Many civil sexual assault cases are resolved through settlements before going to trial. Your attorney will prepare your case for trial if necessary, but often negotiations lead to compensation without survivors having to testify in open court.
Why should I hire a lawyer for my sexual assault case?
Sexual assault cases are deeply personal and legally complex. An experienced lawyer ensures your story is told with compassion, your rights are protected, and that institutions or perpetrators are held fully accountable. Legal representation also allows you to focus on healing while your attorney fights for justice.
