Clergy members are supposed to guide, nurture, and protect their congregants—but when a religious leader sexually abuses a child or vulnerable adult, the betrayal is devastating. Survivors of clergy abuse in Georgia may suffer in silence for years, often burdened by guilt, shame, or threats from religious institutions. But today, survivors have legal rights and a path toward justice.
Our Georgia-based legal team specializes in representing individuals in civil lawsuits against clergy members and churches for sexual abuse and institutional cover-ups. Whether the abuse occurred years ago or more recently, we will fight to ensure your story is heard.
How Churches Fail Survivors
Many churches and religious organizations have historically:
Concealed allegations instead of reporting them
Shielded offenders from justice by reassigning them
Blamed or silenced victims
Prioritized institutional reputation over survivor safety
Filing a civil lawsuit helps bring these failures to light while securing justice and compensation for the harm caused.
Civil Claims Can Cover:
Therapy and long-term medical support
Emotional trauma and suffering
Impact on personal relationships and career
Financial restitution and punitive damages
Even if you were abused decades ago, Georgia law may allow you to file a claim depending on when the abuse was discovered or disclosed. Our firm will review the specific timeline of your case.
