Abuse Attorney
Support for Victims of Abuse
We have helped thousands of clients move forward. While you focus on healing, we’ll handle the legal fight for accountability and fair compensation.
Abuse leaves more than immediate injuries—it can disrupt your health, work, and sense of safety. Our Massachusetts team combines compassionate client care with strategic advocacy so you can make informed decisions at every step. From the first call to the final resolution, we explain the process in plain language and move at your pace.
Many survivors ask whether they have a civil claim in addition to any criminal case. Civil claims can hold individuals and institutions financially accountable for harm caused by assault, sexual abuse, domestic violence, elder abuse, or negligent supervision. We identify all responsible parties, preserve evidence, and pursue every available path to recovery under Massachusetts law.
Privacy matters. We protect your confidentiality, coordinate discreet communications, and handle insurers and opposing counsel so you don’t have to. When expert support is helpful—medical, psychological, or forensic—we work with trusted professionals to document the full impact on your life. Our goal is to secure resources that support healing and long-term stability.
Every story is different. Some cases resolve through negotiated settlements; others require litigation. We prepare for both. That means early investigation, thorough record collection, and a clear strategy for damages such as medical care, counseling, lost wages, and pain and suffering. You’ll always know where your case stands and what comes next.
If you’re unsure where to begin, start with a free, confidential consultation. Save any messages, emails, journals, photos, or reports that may help prove what happened, and jot down names, dates, and locations. Then contact our office to talk through options and timelines. Call (617) 939-9894 or reach us online. No legal fees unless we recover compensation for you.
