The staff at Normandie Law Firm is pleased to tell sexual abuse victims that it takes 6 to 8 months for an Indio Juvenile Hall sexual abuse lawsuit case to settle. That is the guideline our staff has estimated based on the many childhood sexual abuse cases we have handled for victims who were in California juvenile facilities during their youth. However, it is crucial to know that it will take longer for an Indio Juvenile Hall sexual assault case to settle. These often involve more brutality and injuries than those suffered by victims of sexual abuse. Another option is to join a class action suit with other sexual abuse victims. Settling an Indio Juvenile Hall sexual abuse class action lawsuit will take several years because of the complexity of the many victims. Some class action cases exceeded five years before settling for the victims.
Normandie Law Firm is passionate about delivering justice for all victims, especially those who suffered sexual abuse or sexual assault in the care of a juvenile facility that was supposed to be helping them. Please get in touch with our office today to get more information about your right to sue Indio Juvenile Hall for the injustice you suffered and how our team can get the settlement you deserve for the trauma caused by childhood sexual abuse. In addition, our staff will schedule a free consultation for you to discuss your case in a private meeting with one of our seasoned sexual abuse lawyers. They will evaluate the legal merit of your case and advise you if you have grounds to file an Indio Juvenile Hall sexual abuse lawsuit or a sexual assault lawsuit.
Were You Sexually Abused Or Assaulted While At Indio Juvenile Hall?
Victims who have been sexually violated at Indio Juvenile Hall are often confused to learn that sexual abuse and assault are somewhat different. While both involve being sexually violated against your will, sexual assault typically includes significantly more violence and injuries than sexual abuse. That added brutality and potential for long-term injuries are why it will take longer for an Indio Juvenile Hall sexual assault case to settle.
However, these more prolonged cases often provide a larger settlement for the victim. Many are seeking coverage for medical expenses such as severe injuries, damage to reproductive organs, unwanted pregnancies, or sexually transmitted diseases. The acts that the state categorizes as sexual assault include:
- Sodomy
- Rape
- Oral copulation
- Sexual penetration other than intercourse
- Involving a minor in prostitution or pornography
Acts that are legally considered to be sexual abuse include the following, but this is not a complete list as there are a significant number of offenses that would fall into the realm of sexual abuse against a minor:
- Any unwanted touching of the victim but with particular concern regarding the buttocks, breasts, genitals, or groin area
- Forcing the minor to fondle, group, or touch their abuser in a sexual manner
- Forcing a minor to participate in kissing of a sexual nature
- Making sexually explicate comments or lewd remarks to a minor
- Forcing a minor to watch as their abuser masturbates
- Making a minor masturbate while their abuser watches
There is an added level of disdain placed on these acts when they involve a minor. The court views them all as sex acts forced on a minor because they are too young to legally provide consent to any act involving sex. As a result, a person who was sexually abused as a child could receive a more significant settlement than an adult who suffered the same injustices.
How Many Years Does It Take To Settle An Indio Juvenile Hall Abuse Lawsuit?
Because a sexually abused child must live with the anger, frustration, pain, and guilt of their abuse for years or decades, once they decide to pursue legal action, they are often in search of a fast result. Many victims’ first question to Normandie Law Firm staff is how many years does it takes to settle an Indio Juvenile Hall sex abuse lawsuit. The Normandie Law Firm staff is happy to point out that it takes 6 to 8 months to settle an Indio Juvenile Hall abuse lawsuit if the case is straightforward. However, it will take a year or even two years to settle an Indio Juvenile Hall sex abuse lawsuit that is more complicated or represents multiple victims.
It is also critical to understand that all legal matters take time. When eager victim hears a very short time estimate to complete a sexual abuse lawsuit against Indio Juvenile Hall, they could face great disappointment when their legal team cannot deliver. While we cannot quote the time other law firms need to complete your lawsuit, we will stand by our 6 to 8-month time frame and point out that it is one of the best in the industry. Beware of a law firm that is overpromising to get you to hire them.
