Illinois Mormon Abuse Lawyers Advocate for Victims
Our team of Illinois Mormon abuse attorneys has represented thousands of victims of improper conduct. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from the LDS Church and its affiliates, and generally do not file claims against individual assaulters.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified sexual abuse claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim Illinois LDS Church victims can make for sexual abuse is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. Follow this link for our latest information on Mormon Church multi-district litigation.
Our Illinois Mormon abuse lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm exposure to the LDS Church and related sexual abuse. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

7th Circuit Mormon Abuse Claims in Illinois
Illinois is part of the Seventh Circuit of the federal court system, and individual Mormon abuse lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Sexual grooming and abuse appeals are heard by the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal Mormon abuse lawsuits filed in Illinois may be transferred to an alternate jurisdiction pursuant to a sexual grooming Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 7th Circuit Mormon compensation.)
Illinois State Mormon Abuse Claims
Illinois LDS Church lawyers can also file Mormon abuse lawsuits in the State’s county courts (IL Courts website). Chapter 735 of the Illinois Compiled Statutes sets forth the State’s procedural law for sexual grooming/abuse claims.
The State of Illinois follows a modified comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, an Illinois Mormon abuse lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by the LDS Church provided the plaintiff is less than 50% at fault. However, the abuse victim’s recovery may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
