If you've survived sexual abuse or assault, you deserve to be heard, believed and supported — in your own time. We help survivors seek compensation through confidential, trauma-informed civil claims, entirely separate from any criminal case.
Part of our Personal injury & compensation practice.
You choose what to share, and when. Nothing proceeds without you, and everything is confidential.
Civil compensation, the National Redress Scheme and victims-of-crime support are different paths — we explain each and what suits you.
We deal with the institution or insurer and the process, so you don't have to relive it more than necessary.
No. A civil compensation claim is separate — you do not need the offender to have been charged or convicted to make one.
For child sexual abuse, the time limits to bring a civil claim have been removed in most Australian states — you can come forward whenever you are ready. We'll confirm for your situation.
These matters are handled confidentially and sensitively. We'll explain how your privacy is protected at every step.
A national scheme offering a payment, access to counselling and, if you want it, a response from the responsible institution for survivors of institutional child sexual abuse. We can help you weigh it alongside a civil claim.
Book a consultation or take the free claim check — we'll tell you where you stand and what to do next.
Leave your name and number — we call you straight back, usually within 2 minutes (8am–8pm), to understand your situation and book you in with the right lawyer. No cost, no obligation. Outside those hours we'll text you and call first thing.
