Being sexually assaulted is a traumatic, life-changing experience — but it does not define you.
And it does not take away your right to pursue justice.
At GOLDLAW, we help survivors of sexual assault file civil lawsuits against individuals, institutions, or entities that allowed or enabled the abuse. Whether or not the person responsible was arrested or convicted, you can still hold them accountable through the civil legal system.

What Is a Civil Lawsuit for Sexual Assault?
A civil lawsuit allows a survivor to seek financial compensation (also known as damages) for the harm they’ve suffered. This can include:
- Medical bills and treatment
- Therapy and long-term counseling
- Lost wages or career disruption
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma
Civil cases are different from criminal ones. You are not trying to send someone to jail — you are fighting for justice, accountability, and financial support to help rebuild your life.

You Don’t Need a Criminal Conviction to Sue
This is a common misconception. Even if law enforcement didn’t press charges, or the accused was acquitted, you can still win a civil case. Civil courts use a lower burden of proof: “preponderance of the evidence” — meaning it’s more likely than not that the assault occurred.
