Reaching out to a law firm can feel like one of the scariest steps in a survivor’s journey. I’ve been on both sides of that call as someone who once didn’t know what to expect, and now as a Victim Advocate who walks survivors through the process every day.

Here’s what I want you to know: when you call Andreozzi + Foote, you are not just a potential client, you are a person who deserves to be heard, believed, and treated with care.

When you contact our office, you’ll first speak with someone trained to listen, not interrogate. You will never be pressured to file a case or make a quick decision. Our goal is to understand what happened, answer your questions, and explain your options both civil and criminal in a clear, compassionate way.

Sometimes that means helping you access victim services or counseling before any legal action is even discussed. Other times, it means reviewing documents or timelines to help you understand whether a civil case is possible under current law. Our trauma-informed attorneys understand the statutes of limitations all over the nation and can walk you through your rights. No matter what, every conversation begins with your safety, your voice, and your control.

Calling a law firm doesn’t mean you’re committing to a lawsuit. It means you’re exploring your rights, learning your options, and taking back some of the power that was taken from you. And that’s an act of incredible courage.

If you’ve experienced abuse or harm and are considering reaching out for help, please know you’re not alone. Our experienced trauma-informed sexual abuse attorneys are here to listen. When you’re ready, we’re here to listen and help you navigate the next step, at your pace.

This message comes from the desk of victim advocate Jennifer Storm at Andreozzi + Foote. If you or someone you love needs support or legal guidance, contact our team anytime at 866-311-8640 or reach out through our contact form—we’re here to listen.
