Jane Matthews
Head of Abuse Department
If you are a survivor of sexual abuse and harassment, you may be able to seek compensation from those responsible.
Abuse may have been suffered at the hands of an individual or at school, church, a place of work, a sport or youth organisation, in residential care, an institution, detention or care home. Sexual abuse can take many forms – from rape and violent attacks to inappropriate touching and sexual harassment.
We understand that seeking help from a specialist sexual abuse solicitor can be a difficult first step but it is often the start of taking back power.
Every case is unique and therefore one of our specialist sexual abuse solicitors will take the time to talk through your experience to get an understanding of what has happened to you.
Time limits do apply to rape compensation and sexual abuse claims, so it’s important to seek sexual abuse advice as soon as you can, however you may be able to claim compensation even if the abuse occurred many years ago; see non-recent abuse claims.
