California Sexual Abuse Attorney

Sexual Abuse Lawyer in San Diego

Sexual abuse can not be defined in simple terms. Inappropriate talking, touching, exhibiting, viewing or other similar activities can all be classifyed as sexual abuse. When young children are under the sole authority of an adult, the possibility of abuse always exists. Most adults would never abuse a child. Unfortunately, there is a significant percentage who inflict these unthinkable crimes upon the body and psyche of young children, adolescents and teens.

If you have been sexually abused, you may have a case against the individual who inflicted the abuse upon you. The San Diego sexual abuse lawyers at the Zalkin Law Firm have helped countless survivors of sexual abuse to bring civil suits against the criminals who sexually abused them and possibly other children during their career.

Where can sexual abuse occur?

Any situation in which an adult has authority or power over children, whether it is physical, emotional, spiritual, mental or in any other capacity, the danger exists that the adult will sexually exploit the children. Religious institutions such as the Catholic Church and the Jewish community have both seen sexual abuse accusations. Schools, day cares, orphanages, foster homes and Salvation Army locations are also areas in which abuse has been reported.  Recently, media attention has focused upon sexual abuse that occured against foreign exchange students or in the Boy Scouts of America.
