Survivors will learn about attorney-client confidentiality, contingency fee structures (no fees unless compensation is won), and the ways attorneys can ease the burden during an emotionally difficult process.
Who Can File
Many Kentucky survivors are unsure whether they qualify to file a sexual abuse lawsuit. This page explains who may be eligible, including adults who experienced abuse as children in Kentucky or another place; individuals harmed in Kentucky schools, religious settings, or healthcare environments; and family members of survivors in Kentucky. It also addresses how new laws and lookback windows give people who thought their time had run out a second chance to pursue justice.
The Justice You Deserve
Survivors in Kentucky may be entitled to different types of compensation, depending on the specifics of their case. Compensatory damages cover actual losses such as healthcare costs, counseling, and missed income. Punitive damages, on the other hand, penalize responsible individuals or institutions for misconduct and send a powerful message of deterrence.
