Getting Justice for Adults Who Were Sexually Abused in Childhood

If you were the victim of sexual abuse as a child, the emotional scars may never fully heal. Sexual abuse can negatively impact your relationships with your loved ones and others. You may have a lack of self-confidence, intimacy issues and a host of other problems. It may take years or longer for you to be able to discuss this trauma.

Taking action against your abusers can be one way to begin healing these wounds. At Teal Montgomery & Henderson, our lawyers offer compassionate representation to adult victims of childhood sexual abuse. With offices in Sacramento and Santa Rosa, we are able to help people throughout Northern California. If you were abused by a teacher, a member of the clergy, a relative or another authority figure, we can help you seek justice.

Your sexual abuse may have taken place many years ago. You may be concerned about whether you are even able to bring a claim. California law allows adult victims of abuse to bring civil claims many years after childhood abuse. Specifically, you are able to bring a claim eight years after you reach the age of majority (18 years old) or three years after you discover psychological damage as a result of abuse, whichever is later.

Our law firm has decades of experience and will advise you of your rights under the law. If you are able to bring a claim, we will locate your abuser, as well as anyone who allowed the abuse to take place. We are proud of our record helping those injured by another's wrongful conduct, and we will work diligently to help you recover financial damages for your injuries. We know that a settlement or a jury verdict cannot undo the damage of the abuse. It may, however, help you move forward from this difficult time.
