ANDREOZZI + FOOTE

MARYLAND SEXUAL ABUSE LAWYER

Maryland law once made it difficult for sexual abuse victims to seek compensation from their attackers or those who allowed such abuse. Thanks to a new law in 2023, though, this all changed. If you’ve been sexually abused in Maryland, you have far more options for seeking justice.  Having a trained, experiences, and trauma-informed sexual abuse lawyer in Maryland can help you navigate your options.

At Andreozzi + Foote, our team of experienced attorneys works hard for those victimized. We may be a nationwide law firm but we take a local approach to every case. Maryland law has removed the statute of limitations for sexual abuse civil cases, so even if you were victimized long ago, you might be able to hold your abuser and any institution that knew of the abuse and failed to protect you.

What Damages Might You Be Entitled To in Maryland?

If a sexual abuser victimized you, you may be entitled to various damage types. For one, you might be able to recover economic damages. These relate to real monetary loss. For instance, many people face significant medical and therapy bills after an assault. Some victims lose income from missed time at work.

In addition to these monetary losses, you may also be entitled to non-economic damages. Examples include emotional trauma, reputational damage, loss of enjoyment in activities, and more. There is a cap on these damages in Maryland, but this cap could be up to $1.5 million in some cases. This can’t fix what’s happened to you, but it can hold responsible parties accountable.

How Do You Know If You Have A Case?

Before Maryland law regarding the statute of limitations for sexual abuse changed, many victims missed their opportunity because they didn’t know whether they had a valid case. This is not an uncommon fear. After all, we far too often hear the term “he said, she said” in relation to rape and other sexual crimes. And if it’s been years since the incident, you may worry that little to no evidence remains.

However, you mustn’t make these assumptions. For instance, “he said, she said” might cause issues in a criminal trial, but civil lawsuits have a lower evidentiary standard. This means it’s often easier to secure financial compensation than a criminal conviction. Our clients are often extremely surprised at the evidence we can uncover, even in decades-old cases.

The only real way to know if you have a valid case is to speak with a sexual abuse lawyer in Maryland. Contact Andreozzi + Foote today to schedule your free consultation and learn more.
