New York Mormon Abuse Lawyers Advocate for Victims
Our team of New York 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 New York LDS Church victims can make for sexual abuse is one filed within the Statute of Limitations.

The State of New York follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a New York Mormon abuse lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by the LDS Church regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the abuse victim’s recovery may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
