If you were sexually abused while held in a juvenile detention center located in California — even if it happened decades ago — the law may finally be on your side.
For years, survivors of institutional child sexual abuse were silenced by shame, fear, or outdated laws that protected the institutions instead of the children they failed. But California has now lifted the legal time limits that once prevented survivors from seeking justice. That means no matter how long ago the abuse happened, you may now be able to file a claim and hold those responsible accountable.
We Will Help You Seek Justice for the Crime in the Juvenile Detention Center
We are currently reviewing cases involving sexual abuse at specific Los Angeles County and San Diego juvenile facilities, including Barry J. Nidorf, Central Juvenile Hall, Los Padrinos, East Mesa Juvenile Detention Facility, Kearny Mesa Juvenile Detention Facility, Polinsky Children's Center and other state-run institutions at specific Maryland juvenile facilities, including Cheltenham, Hickey School, Victor Cullen, Savage Mountain, and many others. If you were abused at one of these facilities — by a guard, counselor, staff member, or anyone in a position of authority — you may be entitled to financial compensation and a powerful sense of closure.
Every story is different. Some survivors remember the names of their abusers. Others only recall the face, or the pain. We understand. Our intake team has experience handling these sensitive matters with care, confidentiality, and without judgment.
There is no cost to speak with us. There is no pressure to take action. And there is absolutely no risk to you — only the opportunity to finally be heard, to be believed, and to start the process of healing on your terms.
