California: Recent Changes to the Law Empower Abuse Survivors of Juvenile Detention Center Abuse to File Civil Lawsuits

In California, survivors of sexual abuse can file civil lawsuits against both abusers and responsible institutions, with recent laws extending the time to take legal action. Victims may recover damages for emotional harm, medical costs, and more. It's important to gather any available evidence and work with an experienced attorney to navigate the process.

Illinois: Expanding Justice for Survivors of Catholic Church Abuse

Illinois has seen a growing wave of sexual abuse lawsuits, particularly involving the Catholic Church. The state has removed the civil statute of limitations for child sexual abuse, allowing survivors to pursue justice no matter how much time has passed. Victims are increasingly holding both clergy members and church institutions accountable, often resulting in settlements reaching into the millions. The legal environment in Illinois now prioritizes survivor access to justice and transparency in addressing institutional misconduct within the Church.

Nevada: Holding the Catholic Church Accountable

In Nevada, survivors of Catholic Church abuse are filing civil lawsuits under laws that extend the time for victims to seek justice. These cases often target not just individual abusers but also the Church for enabling or covering up the abuse. Victims may pursue individual claims more efficiently and may receive compensation for emotional trauma, medical expenses, and other damages.
