Haliburton Sexual Abuse Lawyer


The perpetrators of sexual abuse may be able to live the rest of their lives without giving their crimes a second thought. However, for the survivors of their wrongful, criminal conduct, the all-encompassing compassing can last a lifetime. 

It is a commonly accepted fact that survivors of childhood sexual abuse have a much higher likelihood of developing serious mental health outcomes than non-victims. The serious mental repercussions of being victimized in one’s youth can include attention deficit disorder, as well as behavioural issues such as juvenile delinquency, and other severe outcomes including suicidal ideation and attempts.

These outcomes can contribute to even more substantial problems for sexual abuse survivors as they grow older. Oftentimes, people who have been taken advantage of in their youth or adolescence struggle within educational systems; they may be unable to complete high school, post-secondary education, or vocational training because of their continued struggle to overcome the trauma they were forced to endure. As such, survivors of sexual abuse often have reduced future earning capabilities as a direct result of their experience with an abuser. 

People who have been sexually abused as children also face higher instances of alcoholism and/or addiction to illicit drugs than those who were not exploited by an abuser. This unhealthy relationship to alcohol and other substances frequently has negative impacts on their professional lives. Sexual abuse survivors often lose their jobs as a result of their dependence on drugs and/or alcohol, resulting in financial instability that is directly related to the abuse to which they were subjected earlier in life.

In addition to the potential loss of income, survivors of sexual abuse often incur other substantial monetary losses over the course of their lives. They may be forced to pay out-of-pocket for psychological treatment, prescription drugs, and other medical expenses over the course of many years. These expenses could put additional strains on a sexual abuse victim’s financial stability, especially if they find it difficult to maintain stable employment. 

Our Haliburton sexual abuse lawyers believe that no victim should be forced to continue paying the price of someone else’s wrongdoings. If you were exploited by a sexual abuser, you might be entitled to compensation for the resulting damages you have incurred.

How Can a Haliburton Sexual Abuse Lawyer Help?

Our sexual abuse lawyers serving Haliburton appreciate how much emotional fortitude it can take to finally speak out against a sexual abuser and seek retribution for the crimes committed against you. The process of pursuing justice can seem complicated for those unfamiliar with the judicial system, and we know you must have many questions

Many survivors of sexual abuse assume that, since their harmful encounter with a perpetrator occurred in the past, they have missed their window of opportunity to pursue any kind of retribution. However, in the province of Ontario, there is no statute of limitations on sexual abuse claims. No matter how many years or decades in the past your abuse occurred, by working with our sexual abuse lawyers serving Haliburton, you might still be eligible to file a civil claim against your abuser and, in certain cases, against their employer.

If you are eligible to pursue a civil claim, our Haliburton sexual abuse lawyers may be able to help you recover compensation for damages resulting from your traumatizing experience. These damages might include:

  • Lost wages
  • Reduced future earning capacity
  • Loss of interdependent relationship
  • Failure to reach potential
  • Medical bills
  • Psychological treatment
  • Prescriptions
  • And possibly more
