  • Illinois and Nevada allow civil sex abuse lawsuits without criminal charges, with settlements ranging from $300,000 to over $1.5 million.
  • Both states have loosened time limits on filing, enabling survivors to seek justice—and often significant compensation—years later.

Illinois: Expanding Justice for Survivors of Institutional Abuse

Illinois has seen a growing wave of sexual abuse lawsuits, especially targeting institutions like the Catholic Church and schools. The state has eliminated the civil statute of limitations for child sexual abuse, allowing survivors to come forward regardless of how much time has passed. Victims are increasingly holding both individuals and institutions accountable, often resulting in settlements reaching into the millions. The legal environment in Illinois now prioritizes survivor access to justice and transparency in institutional misconduct.

Nevada: Holding Juvenile Facilities Accountable

Nevada's recent sexual abuse lawsuits focus largely on abuse within state-run juvenile detention centers. Victims allege long-standing systemic failures in protecting youth from staff misconduct. The state allows civil claims even when no criminal charges were filed, and settlement amounts commonly range from $300,000 to $1.5 million. Legal reforms have also extended time limits for filing, giving more survivors the opportunity to seek justice and compensation for institutional negligence.
