The Difference Between Sexual Abuse And Sexual Assault
As you meet with your Normandie Law Firm lawyer for your free consultation, you will need to provide many details of the events from your stay at Alameda County Juvenile Justice Facility and the sexual acts that you endured. We understand this can be painful, embarrassing, and traumatic. However, this information will profoundly impact the settlement you receive.

In California, the legal system differentiates between sexual abuse and sexual assault. Sexual assault is seen as more harmful and damaging to the victim. For that reason, a sexual assault victim will often see a significantly larger settlement than a sexual abuse victim. So, you must be clear on which of these legal terms best defines the actions taken against you at Alameda County Juvenile Justice Facility. Sexual assault includes the following:

• Oral copulation
• Sodomy
• Rape
• Sexual penetration that is not considered intercourse, for example, a foreign object
• A minor participating in pornography
• Prostitution of a minor

The acts considered sexual abuse are more wide-ranging and can include but are not limited to:

• Groping the victim
• Forcing the victim to touch or fondle the abuser
• Inappropriate touching of the victim in the groin area, buttocks, genitals, or breasts
• Exposing yourself to a minor
• Sexual kissing
• Forcing the victim to masturbate or making the victim watch their abuser masturbate
• Lewd or sexual comments to a minor

All sexual abuse and assault victims must understand that any of these acts against a minor are considered forced. As a minor, the victim cannot legally consent to any sexual activities.
