There are many different companies that offer at-home cleaning services (i.e., maids). This is a helpful service for people who either do not have the time to clean their homes or who simply want a bit of help with cleaning. When someone reaches out to a cleaning service and requests someone to come to the home, they expect that someone reliable will come to the home, complete the required cleaning, and leave without any harm resulting from the interaction. Unfortunately, some of the personnel sent by these cleaning companies can have bad intentions and actually sexually abuse people in the home.
If you were sexually abused by someone from a cleaning service, it is important that you understand that you could have grounds to file a lawsuit. Do not hesitate to reach out to the experts here at our law firm as soon as possible. Our team at the Normandie Law Firm is more than ready to take on your sexual abuse claim and help you fight for your rights.

Sexual abuse is an umbrella term that could include rape, attempted rape, forced kissing, groping, unwanted touching, forcefully performing oral sex on the victim, forcing the victim to perform oral sex, masturbating in front of the victim, forcing the victim to masturbate, etc.
Sexual abuse can have lasting effects. Physical effects can include sexually transmitted infections, unwanted pregnancies, injuries to genitals, injuries to reproductive organs, fractures, lacerations, scrapes, and bruises, for instance. Mental and emotional effects of sexual abuse can include depression, anxiety, panic, fear, and post-traumatic stress disorder. These mental/emotional effects can last a lifetime and often require extensive therapy.
