While we specialize in civil claims, we’ll support you in whatever path you choose, without pressure.

Civil Sexual Assault Claims: Pursuing Compensation for Harm

As civil sexual assault lawyers, we assist survivors in holding assailants accountable for the harm they’ve caused. You don’t need to have physical injuries to seek justice – psychological injuries are equally valid and compensable under the law. We’re dedicated to ensuring survivors receive the financial compensation they deserve for their suffering.

Statute of Limitations: Timely Action in British Columbia

In British Columbia, there’s no time limit for bringing a civil claim for sexual assault, regardless of when the assault occurred. Even if years have passed, you can still seek compensation. Our team can assess your case and advise you accordingly.

Civil Court vs. Criminal Court: Understanding the Standards of Proof

Successfully proving a case in civil court doesn’t hinge on a criminal conviction. The burden of proof in civil court – “on a balance of probabilities” – is lower than in criminal court, making it possible to seek justice even without a criminal conviction. We’ll advocate for you, ensuring your voice is heard and your rights protected.
