Connecticut Child Molestation Case Attorneys in Danbury and Other Areas
If you were sexually abused by someone as a child you may have a legal right to sue and obtain damages from that person, his or her employer or others, depending on the circumstances. At Ventura, Ribeiro & Smith, our Connecticut child molestation case lawyers in Danbury and other areas provide you with the experienced legal representation you need to obtain fair compensation. We will stand up for your interests so you can begin to move forward with your life.
Time Limits in Which to File a Claim
Connecticut and New York State differ in terms of how much time victims of a childhood sexual assault or molestation have to file a suit. In Connecticut, you have to file suit before your 48th birthday. In New York, you may have as little as one year from your 18th birthday in which to file a claim. In some cases, you have up to 10 years if the assailant was convicted of a sex crime in criminal court.
In either state, it is important that you speak with our Danbury sex crime victim attorneys as soon as possible so you do not miss out on the deadline to file a claim. Even if you choose not to retain us, or, if for some reason, we are unable to take your case, you can rest assured that all information provided to us will remain confidential. We will handle your case with understanding and compassion.
We Hold All Parties Accountable
The person who committed the sexual assault is certainly liable for your injuries. However, we may also be able to file a third-party claim against a business, day care center, church, or campground where the assault occurred. The lawyers at Ventura, Ribeiro & Smith will fight to hold all responsible parties accountable for their negligence in order to maximize your compensation.
Dedicated and Determined Advocates You Can Trust
Our attorneys are sensitive to the fact that filing a civil lawsuit for a sexual assault or for childhood abuse is a tremendously courageous, but also difficult, thing to do. As your advocates, we will work closely with you to piece together an accurate picture of events and to identify all parties who may bear some responsibility for what happened. We will ensure that you are given a strong voice in the legal process in order to help redress some of the harm and psychological trauma you have endured.
