Brampton Sexual Assault Lawyer


The harm caused by the perpetrators of sexual assault goes far beyond the initial instance of sexual violence. Survivors of sexual assault often suffer in silence, living with the repercussions of a criminal’s wrongful actions for years, and even decades. 

All violent crimes in Canada are, statistically, on the decline, except for sexual assault. This pervasive and destructive form of violence robs victims of the control they should have over their own bodies, and often causes them to develop long-lasting psychological injuries that can have disastrous impacts on their emotional well-being, their abilities to maintain social relationships, and their livelihoods. 

The term “sexual assault” can refer to any form of non-consensual sexual activity. In the context of sexual activities, the term “consent” refers to a clearly understood, ongoing agreement between intimate partners that can be revoked at any time throughout the encounter. If someone subjects another person to any form of unwanted sexual behaviour, they have committed sexual assault. As such, the term “sexual assault” can refer to various forms of sexual violence, including rape and attempted rape, as well as unwanted touching, groping, forced kissing, stalking, indecent exposure, verbal harassment, online abuse, and more.

In order to address this widespread issue on a societal level, it is necessary to dispel various myths about sexual assault. Additionally, individual victims of sexual assault deserve the chance to pursue justice, to speak out about their experiences, and to receive compensation for the injuries inflicted upon them by reprehensible criminals.

By working with our Brampton sexual assault lawyers, survivors of sexual assault may be able to recover compesantion for damages they have incurred as a result of their abuser’s criminal actions. These damages might include:

  • Psychological counseling
  • Psychiatric treatment
  • Prescription drugs
  • Loss of interdependent relationships
  • Lost wages due to missed work
  • Reduced future earning capabilities
  • Failure to meet potential
  • And more

Survivors of sexual assault are entitled to pursue civil action against their abusers even if the Crown has also pressed criminal charges against them. Whereas the Crown represents the government and could determine the debt a criminal must pay to society at large for their actions, in civil proceedings, defendants must answer directly to individual plaintiffs. 

Furthermore, there is no statute of limitations on sexual assault claims in Ontario. That means that, regardless of how long ago you were subjected to abuse, you could still be eligible to recover compensation for your assault-related financial losses by working with our sexual assault lawyers serving Brampton.

Our Brampton sexual assault lawyers appreciate how challenging it can be to speak out against sexual abusers. However, at Preszler Injury lawyers, our sexual assault lawyers serving Brampton are committed to bringing criminals in the local community to justice, and helping survivors of sexual assault recover the compensation and emotional empowerment they deserve.
