Children are Vulnerable to Sexual Abuse

Children are innocent and often trusting, especially when it comes to people of a certain hierarchy, such as religious leaders, teachers, doctors, and other adults that are supposed to be trustworthy. Tragically, all too often children become victims because of their naivity of the world. If your child is struggling mentally and you have a suspicion that clergy molestation could be happening, we urge you to get help from our Clergy Molestation Lawyers in Maryland at Cohen & Cohen without hesitation. Even one incident of sexual abuse against a child can have lasting and life-long impacts, including but not limited to the following:

• Eating disorders
• Anxiety disorders
• Somatic disorders
• Relationship issues
• Personality disorders
• Chronic pain
• Obesity
• Poor gastrointestinal health
  

Places of Worship as Sanctuaries

When people congregate at a church or other religious institution, they look up to their religious leaders as people who will do no harm. However, as headlines have revealed over the years, that is surely not the case. More than ever before people of various ages are coming forward about their story of sexual abuse at the hands of a priest, rabbi, fellow worshiper, or other church clergy. The days of suffering in silence are over, and survivors are encouraged to come forward because they deserve obtaining some sense of justice through legal action and monetary compensation. We know that money cannot take back the emotional wounds, but what we can do is hold the offender responsible in hopes this brings you some degree of healing.

When us or our children become victims in what was supposed to be a protected place of worship, it can damper our perspective of the world as a loving and safe place. If this is something you, your child, or your loved one is going through, please remind them it is safe to bring their story to light. In fact, it can help others do the same and prevent the offender from inflicting further harm.

If you or someone you love was the victim of sexual abuse from a member of the church, we recommend calling our law firm to find out your options. We provide free consultations to survivors of sexual abuse, so they feel empowered to decide for themselves whether legal action will help them heal.
