Understanding If You Are A Victim Of Kings County Juvenile Center Sexual Abuse
Because you were young when in Kings County Juvenile Center, it could be confusing to describe or understand precisely what happened to you in that facility. You likely know that some of what happened was wrong, but you are not sure it was childhood sexual abuse. So, it is vital that you have a better understanding of what the state considers sexual abuse of minors. The acts can include:

• Groping of private areas of your body
• Being forced to grope the private areas of your abuser’s body
• Any inappropriate or unwanted touching or fondling
• Being forced to kiss in a sexual manner
• Someone exposing themselves to you
• Being forced to masturbate while someone watches or for you to be forced to watch as that person masturbates
• Lewd or sexually explicate comments being directed at you

All of these acts are forms of sexual abuse that you should never have been made to endure. We ask that you contact Normandie Law Firm immediately to learn more about your right to seek justice and meet with a Kings County Juvenile Center sexual abuse attorney to evaluate the facts of your case during a free consultation. But please do not wait to make the call, as the Statute of Limitations could expire and eliminate your ability to seek the help you deserve from Kings County Juvenile Center.

Were You Sexually Assaulted At Kings County Juvenile Center?
It is pretty clear even to minors when there has been an assault. However, introducing the sexual component to it and involving a child adds a great deal of complexity. You could still be confused about the nature of your childhood sexual abuse, especially if you were told it was an act of caring. However, it is vital that you understand that any acts of a sexual nature involving a minor are considered forced and are also often seen as sexual assault in the eyes of the law. Acts commonly classified as sexual assault include:

• Rape
• Sodomy
• Oral copulation
• Any sexual penetration other than intercourse
• Forcing someone to participate in pornography or prostitution

If you suffered any of these injustices, you are the victim of Kings County Juvenile Center sexual assault. And you need to contact Normandie Law Firm immediately to speak to a childhood sexual assault lawyer. Our experts will help you understand how to seek the most robust compensation for all the issues, expenses, and losses you have suffered in your life as a result of Kings County Juvenile Center assault as a minor in their facility.

Please contact our staff immediately, as we can be reached 24/7 to help you sort out this complex legal matter.

What Is The Kings County Juvenile Center Statute Of Limitations For Sexual Abuse?
The term Statute of Limitations refers to the time limit a victim has to file a lawsuit against someone who has harmed them or caused them to suffer a loss. In the instance of a Kings County Juvenile Center sexual abuse lawsuit, the victim must have their case filed with the court before they turn 40 years old. That equated to 22 years from the time they reach 18 and can legally file a lawsuit, until the Statute of Limitations expired on their 40th birthday.

Even though sexual abuse and sexual assault are legally viewed as different violations and carry different levels of compensation, the Statute of Limitations is the same. The victim of a sexual assault at Kings County Juvenile Center must file their lawsuit by the time they turn 40, or typically, they will lose the right to seek justice and compensation.

This limited time to hold Kings County Juvenile Center accountable for your trauma makes it even more critical that you contact Normandie Law Firm to request a free consultation with a Kings County Juvenile Center abuse attorney or a Kings County Juvenile Center sexual assault lawyer as soon as possible. Our team will work diligently to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve. However, there is little we can offer victims who have waited until the Statute of Limitations expires on their sexual abuse or sexual assault case.

Is There Any Way To Sue Kings County Juvenile Center After Victims Turn 40?
While the Statute of Limitations is strictly enforced in most cases, there is a single exception that applies to the victims of childhood sexual abuse or sexual assault. It is commonly known that minors or children will repress painful memories when they are unable to mentally or emotionally process them. They file the thoughts away deep in their subconscious, hoping to hide from them. But these memories never remain hidden.

Typically, a victim will discover these repressed thoughts when working with a therapist or counselor. And often, the victim is already past the age of 40. The exception to the 40-year age limit allows a five-year window for the victim to sue their abusers. In the case of Kings County Juvenile Center, victims have five years from the date of the discovery of their abuse or assault and the impact it will have on their lives to seek justice, regardless of their age. Please contact Normandie Law Firm immediately if you believe this five-year discovery period applies to you. Our Kings County Juvenile Center abuse lawyers will evaluate your case and help you understand the time you have to file a lawsuit if the exception does apply to your case.

Have You Considered A Kings County Juvenile Center Sexual Abuse Class Action Lawsuit?
Class action cases are somewhat unique because they represent many victims who suffered similar losses or harm and seek compensation as a group. They have opted for the class action case instead of filing a single-victim lawsuit. In addition, they must agree to accept the outcome of the class action and the compensation awarded in the case. They cannot then file a single-victim lawsuit if they are unhappy with their portion of the class action awarded compensation.

Knowing that a single class action case can represent more than 100 victims puts the value of these cases into perspective. It is not uncommon for a Kings County Juvenile Center sexual abuse class action case to settle for between $50,000,000 and $100,000,000. But when the award is distributed, each victim will likely get roughly the same amount as if they had filed a single-victim case.

If you would like to know more about class action lawsuits in general or current Kings County Juvenile Center sex abuse class action cases you could join, please get in touch with Normandie Law Firm today. Our experts will answer your questions and schedule an appointment with a Kings County Juvenile Center class action lawsuit attorney to evaluate your case to see if you are a candidate to join a current class action matter against Kings County Juvenile Center.

How Much Is The Average Value Of A Kings County Juvenile Center Lawsuit?
The average Kings County Juvenile Center sexual abuse lawsuit will settle for between $500,000 and $2,000,000. However, that is an average or general estimate of these case values. To determine a more accurate estimate of the value of your case, a Kings County Juvenile Center sexual abuse lawyer at Normandie Law Firm will need to understand more information and details about the matter. These case values are determined based on the losses and expenses suffered by the victim due to their childhood sexual abuse and the trauma it caused.

Our Kings County Juvenile Center sexual assault attorneys use the same information to determine the value of a sexual assault lawsuit. The typical value falls in the range of $1,000,000 to $3,000,000. However, your case could be more or less than this dollar range based on the issues and expenses caused by your childhood sexual assault and its trauma.

Because the value of your lawsuit is critical when deciding if a lawsuit is the best option for you, we hope you will contact Normandie Law Firm today. Our staff is eager to answer your questions and schedule a free consultation to ensure that you have a far more accurate estimated value if you decide to pursue legal action against Kings County Juvenile Center for the sexual abuse or sexual assault you suffered while in their facility.

How Long Does It Take To Complete A Kings County Juvenile Center Lawsuit?
Sadly, many victims worry that it will take years to complete their lawsuit and even longer to get the compensation they need. However, the Normandie Law Firm team is proud to report that our legal experts reach a conclusion in most sexual abuse lawsuits in only 6 to 8 months. In addition, if your case is more complicated, we estimate a completion in no longer than 18 months.

Kings County Juvenile Center sexual assault cases are more involved and typically range from one to two years to complete due to the added complexities of possible severe physical injuries and medical expenses. However, the longest cases are definitely class actions. It can take three to five years for the most extensive class actions to conclude due to the massive amount of information regarding the many victims included in these cases.
