Surviving sexual abuse is a difficult journey—one that no one should walk alone. If you've experienced sexual abuse in St. Louis, Missouri, our legal team is here to help you seek justice, find closure, and regain control over your life. Whether the abuse occurred recently or in the past, civil legal action is often a powerful tool for healing and accountability.
Our firm represents survivors in lawsuits against individual abusers, as well as institutions that enabled or ignored patterns of abuse. These may include religious organizations, schools, daycares, healthcare providers, foster care systems, athletic programs, or employers. We understand the emotional toll that comes with speaking up, and we strive to provide trauma-informed, compassionate representation from start to finish.
Survivors in Missouri may pursue compensation for:
Emotional trauma and psychological suffering
The cost of therapy, counseling, or psychiatric treatment
Physical injury or medical care related to the abuse
Loss of wages, job opportunities, or future income
Pain, suffering, and loss of quality of life
Punitive damages in extreme cases of negligence or cover-ups
Missouri law has evolved to offer extended windows for filing civil claims in sexual abuse cases, particularly for survivors of childhood abuse in St. Louis, MO. Even if the abuse happened years ago, you may still be eligible to bring a case. Our attorneys will evaluate your claim, explain your legal rights, and guide you in determining whether the statute of limitations still allows you to take action.
The legal process may feel intimidating—but it doesn’t have to be. When you work with our St. Louis team, we handle every aspect of your case while protecting your confidentiality and well-being. You’ll never owe legal fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf.
We also encourage survivors to connect with supportive local resources such as Safe Connections, the YWCA St. Louis Regional Sexual Assault Center, and the Missouri Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence—all of which provide crisis response, therapy, and advocacy.
You are not alone. If you’re ready to tell your story, we’re ready to listen and take action. Contact us today for a free, confidential consultation and learn how we can help you on your path to justice.
