The cost of sexual abuse persists throughout a survivor’s life—from painful memories to diagnosable conditions that interfere with work and interpersonal problems. However, if you are a survivor, the Van Law team wants to get justice for any abuse-related damages you have experienced.
A Spokane, WA, sexual abuse lawyer from Van Law will fight for a settlement or judgment that covers your damages while holding your abuser—and any other liable parties—accountable.
Criminal Proceedings Don’t Cover the Cost of Abuse: Van Law Will Seek Money for Abuse-Related Damages
It is critical that Inland Empire courts hold sexual abusers accountable. However, abuse survivors often find themselves alone in dealing with the fallout of abuse, even when their abuser received a lengthy prison sentence. In tragic cases, the criminal justice system fails to hold abusers in Spokane accountable at all.
In either case, Van Law helps abuse survivors in the Spokane Valley seek proper justice by fighting for a financial recovery that accounts for these abuse-related damages.
Pain and Suffering
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs describes the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among sexual abuse survivors. However, you might also:
- Have difficulty maintaining romantic relationships.
- Experience mood or personality changes related to abuse symptoms.
- Develop substance abuse disorders.
- Risky sexual behavior.
The Van Law team works with medical and mental health professionals when handling sexual abuse cases. Then, we will evaluate your pain and suffering damages in a noninvasive, respectful manner.
Physical Injuries
Sexual abuse may require immediate medical care but also could contribute to long-term health problems like obesity and heart disease.
The Van Law team will work with your doctors to identify and value every medical expense stemming from sexual abuse.
Psychological and Emotional Treatment
Survivors may need various therapies for psychological and emotional trauma, including the following:
- One-on-one counseling
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Group therapy
- Medications
Every survivor’s healing journey is unique. We will work with your mental health team and consult our experts to determine the cost of current and future treatments.
Professional Damages
Sexual abuse symptoms can disrupt several areas of your life, including your work. If you cannot reach your full professional potential because of abuse symptoms, you could recover lost income, benefits, bonuses, and earning power from missed promotions. Thus, we will review your work history and discuss any professional damages you have experienced.
In addition, because each case is unique, we will identify any other abuse-related damages not listed here.
