Our Sexual Abuse Lawyers Will Pursue the Clergy Member Who Abused You
Clergy sexual abuse is defined as any non-consensual sexual act by any member of the religious profession. Ohio laws define the following acts as types of sexual abuse:
- Rape (2907.02)
- Sexual battery (2907.03)
- Unlawful sexual conduct with a minor (2907.04)
- Gross sexual imposition (2907.05)
- Sexual imposition (2907.06)
- Importuning (2907.07)
If any clergy member abused you in any of the ways above or engaged in any other inappropriate behavior, we can help you build a strong case for compensation. We will collect evidence and negotiate a fair and appropriate settlement.
Clergy members we will pursue for compensation include:
- Deacons
- Elders
- Ministers
- Music ministers
- Pastors
- Preachers
- Priests
- Sunday school teachers
- Worship leaders
- Youth ministers
You do not have to file a sexual abuse lawsuit against a religious leader on your own. We will advocate for you and pursue every avenue of financial compensation.
We Handle the Sensitive Process of Collecting Evidence for Your Case
Collecting evidence for sexual abuse claims can be incredibly difficult. We treat everything with the strict confidentiality you expect and deserve.
Our case-building team will compile:
- Pictures of any physical injuries
- Records of the clergy attendance

- Eyewitness statements
- Expert witness statements
- Therapist and counselor records
- Any relevant journal or diary entries

The Last Thing You Should Worry About Is How You’re Going To Pay For Your Medical Bills.
Ohio’s Statute of Limitations Can Be Complicated in Clergy Sexual Abuse Cases
Meeting the statute of limitations for sexual abuse claims is mandatory but can be challenging since it can change based on the age of the injured party. For example, a minor could have an extended time to file a sexual abuse lawsuit in Ohio. This is the general rule, though there are exceptions.
On your own, it could be hard to interpret and hard to comply with the filing deadline. A misinterpretation can prevent you from filing your lawsuit at all. We can help you avoid this potentially costly outcome. We will accurately assess the statute of limitations and file your lawsuit on time.
Damages Our Delaware Clergy Sexual Abuse Attorneys Demand for You
Recovering from clergy sexual abuse can be lifelong. When we are seeking justice on your behalf, we are sure to include all related damages, including:
- Current and future medical expenses for treating any physical injuries
- Current and future costs of mental healthcare, treatment, and support
- Current and future income losses and the loss of future earning potential
- Pain and suffering, including physical, mental, and emotional distress
Our legal team will assess your potential compensation. We also document your damages, draft a settlement demand letter, and submit these times with your well-documented case.
