Sexual abuse is a devastating experience that no one should ever have to endure. Yet, for many survivors in St. Louis, Missouri, this trauma is a harsh reality. Whether you were harmed as a child or an adult, you have the right to pursue justice—and we are here to help.
Our legal team supports survivors through the civil justice system, holding abusers and negligent institutions accountable for their role in the abuse. From church officials to teachers, physicians, foster care workers, and supervisors, we’ve seen how people in positions of authority use their influence to exploit the vulnerable. Worse, we’ve seen organizations look the other way to avoid public shame or legal consequences.
Civil lawsuits in Missouri give survivors the chance to seek compensation for:
Medical treatment and long-term therapy
Lost wages or career setbacks due to trauma
Emotional pain and psychological injuries
Loss of enjoyment of life and wellbeing
Punitive damages for outrageous negligence or misconduct
Missouri’s statute of limitations has changed in recent years to give more survivors a chance to file claims, particularly those who suffered abuse as minors. Even if the abuse happened decades ago, your case may still be valid under the new laws.
Our sexual abuse attorneys in St. Louis are deeply experienced in sexual abuse litigation and committed to creating a respectful, confidential environment. We work on a contingency-fee basis—so there are no out-of-pocket costs to you unless we win.
In addition to our legal support, survivors can benefit from connecting with local services, including the Crime Victim Center, the St. Louis County Family Court’s victim advocacy program, and sexual assault crisis centers. Healing takes time—and support—but it starts with knowing you are not alone.
Filing a lawsuit is not just about money—it’s about being heard. It’s about holding those responsible accountable and helping prevent future abuse. When you're ready to take that step, we’re here to walk beside you.
