How Van Law’s Sexual Abuse Attorney in Bellingham, WA Will Fight for Your Financial Recovery

Our attorneys follow a proven sequence when handling our client’s cases. We work to compose the strongest possible case when we enter settlement negotiations, and we generally make our case by:

Getting evidence of abuse: We may rely on records from criminal proceedings, medical records, police reports, and other official documents to prove your abuse.
Documenting your damages in a compassionate way: We will create a clear picture of how sexual abuse has negatively affected your life. Our team knows how to document your damages without triggering discomfort, as compassion is essential in all sexual abuse cases.
Calculating the monetary cost of your damages: Considering all evidence, we will determine exactly how much compensation you deserve.
Getting expert testimony: Van Law hires experts who can testify about liability, damages, and other aspects of a sexual abuse case.

We will then enter settlement negotiations, demanding that your abuser and other liable parties cover your damages. Our firm works hard to settle cases, as this is generally the most efficient, cost-effective way to get compensation to abuse survivors. Sometimes, though, trial becomes necessary.

Here is Van Law’s promise to you: We won’t ever back down, and we’ll always make decisions based on your best interests. If it is in your best interests to go to trial, that’s what our sexual abuse lawyer in Bellingham, WA will do.

Client Testimonials

These guys are amazing. Helped me throughout the process. Always there when I need help. Inititailly called a law firm (the one that has lots of ads on the radio), but they declined my case. Van Law Firm accepted my case without a second thought! Kudos to Daniel, my case manager, and Amanda who expedited my payment process. Highly recommended.

Milby Mags

Got in an accident at the beginning of the year and they have been awesome, especially with it being my first accident and me being like this. They have been very communicated, stayed in contact with me the whole time, giving me updates when there were any and even when there weren’t and answered any question I had. I would recommend them to anyone. Everyone I have talked to there has been very friendly. I would give them a 10 out of 10.

Ethan Gullet

They made sure that my insurance company covered what I paid for them to which included the gap for my car that was totaled. My medical costs were taken care of and reduced substantially so I was able to get more on my settlement. My case manager, Will Garcia, was always helpful in assisting me and answering any questions I had. They really did an amazing job with my case. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of this type of legal help. Most lawyers do not help you with the recovery of the car and rental etc. They are amazing.
