Bamieh & Erickson - Ventura County Child Abuse Liability Attorneys
If you or someone in your family has experienced sexual abuse, financial exploitation, or physical assault at the hands of a licensed professional, contact the Southern California therapeutic abuse lawyers at Bamieh & Erickson. We will listen carefully and empathetically to your story, investigate the situation thoroughly, and advise you as to your legal rights in any situation involving a breach of professional trust. In some cases, a lawsuit for damages will be your best route to compensation.
Our attorneys represent clients in cases involving the following kinds of professional misconduct:
- Sexual abuse committed in the course of a clinical, therapeutic, or counseling relationship
- Child abuse at school, church, camp, sports, or day care
- Elder abuse at nursing homes or assisted living centers
- Financial exploitation by investment advisors, guardians, conservators, trustees, or other fiduciaries
In any of these situations, the abuser will have violated a relationship of trust that is frequently strengthened and enforced under state professional licensing regulations. In establishing liability in these cases, we work with highly qualified experts in the professional field at issue to provide clear and persuasive evidence showing how the abusive conduct violated the rules under which the defendant professional works. We also work closely with experts to document the nature and extent of your injuries and losses so that damages may be accurately assessed.
In some cases, an action against the abuser can proceed at the same time as an action against the owner of the property where the assaultive conduct occurred under a premises liability theory.
