About Our Firm

We Support Survivors in the Fight for Justice

Colorado Sexual Abuse Law is backed by decades of experience of fighting for survivors. Our attorneys have been involved in some of the largest sexual assault and abuse cases in the country. We have the resources and skill to take on large organizations and high-profile individuals or companies. 

Our team also recognizes the immense toll of sexual harassment, assault, or abuse—and how much is on the line for those who come forward with their stories. We use trauma-informed methods to discuss and investigate our clients’ claims. We also promise heightened discretion and strict confidentiality at all times.

The most important thing to everyone at our firm is ensuring our clients feel safe and respected. We take the time to get to know the people we work with so we can suggest strategies and steps that meet their goals. Each client at Colorado Sexual Abuse Law gets individual attention. We listen closely to the stories of those who come to us because we know they need to be heard.

Senate Bill 88 Sex Abuse Claims

If Your Right to Sue Was Recently Restored, We Can Help

Starting January of 2022, survivors of child sexual abuse that was committed in or after 1960 will have a three-year window during which they can file lawsuits against their abusers and organizations that harbored them. Our team has supported SB 88 since it was in draft phase, and we are so pleased to see this important piece of legislation go into effect.

Thanks to SB 88, survivors can hold the following organizations accountable:

If you wish to file a lawsuit, you must do so before January 1, 2025. This may seem like a long time from right now, but investigating and building a claim cannot be done overnight. We encourage you to reach out as soon as you are ready, so you do not miss your chance to find justice.

 

Notable Cases

Compassion Is at the Heart of Our Practice

As sexual assault attorneys, we bear witness to the stories of survivors who were hurt in the most violating and intimate way. Some of them have held this hurt inside them for years. Others tried to find justice in the past—and saw their abusers face no punishment in the criminal justice system and even keep positions of authority. The knowledge of this heavy history sits with us every day and shapes all we do. 

Fighting a sexual abuse case is one of the hardest and most courageous steps a survivor can take. Our lawyers aim to be your anchor throughout the process: We provide legal advice and counsel and also take a genuine interest in your well-being. Finding justice is part of the healing process, and we want to do everything we can to make that road smooth. 

Your courage in coming forward with your story inspires us to keep fighting, even when we face resistance or setbacks. Justice may be hard-won, but our attorneys handle each case with complete dedication and care.
