Queens School Sexual Abuse Lawyer
Have you or your child suffered because of a predatory teacher or neglectful faculty? Reach out for help from a Queens sex abuse lawyer for help with your school sexual abuse claim.
The school system should be focused on creating a safe and healthy learning environment for all students. However, not all schools are safe, and not all teachers or school administrators may have the best interests of you or your child in mind. That means your family may have been devastated because of the sexual abuse of you or a family member.
You need justice, and that can be difficult without a Queens sexual abuse lawyer. Fortunately, the attorneys at Greenstein & Milbauer, LLP can help you get the closure and compensation you need to recover from your losses.
Options for School Sexual Abuse Claims
If you or a loved has suffered school sexual abuse, you may be eligible for help. You don’t have to accept the losses you’ve suffered, even if the teacher or faculty member has been convicted on criminal charges.
You can also sue them for the losses you’ve suffered. Because of the New York Child Victims Act, victims up to age 55 can seek compensation for the financial and emotional suffering they’ve experienced because of the actions of a predator. Your Queens school sexual abuse lawyer can help you act in time and seek compensation.
Compensation for Queens School Sexual Abuse Victims
Sexual abuse can be costly, which means you’ll need to know how much your losses because of the abuse are worth. These losses, also called damages, should cover more than your financial costs.
In many abuse claims, the emotional losses you’ve suffered may be greater than the financial ones. That’s because many school-age children who suffer sexual abuse in schools may not have jobs or other financial worries that are commonly associated with personal injury cases.
However, finding the value of these emotional losses can be tough. For example, you may have been so affected by the abuse that you struggle to form relationships with other people, but that doesn’t have a dollar amount. You may need a Queens sexual abuse lawyer’s help to calculate those losses.
If you’ve been sexually abused in the school system, you may be eligible for compensation for your losses, which may include any of the following:
- Medical care
- Emotional distress
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of society
