It happened a long time ago — is it too late to do anything?

Not necessarily. Many survivors believe they missed their chance to speak up, but laws have changed to give people more time. In some cases, legal action may be possible even if the abuse occurred decades ago. A lawyer can review the details of your situation and determine whether the statute of limitations allows you to file a case.

What can I expect from the legal process?

The legal process may include speaking confidentially with a lawyer, gathering evidence or personal records, potentially joining others with similar experiences, and negotiating a settlement or going to court if necessary. Throughout the process, your legal team should provide guidance, support, and clear communication.
