ASK LLP Secures Million-Dollar Abuse Settlements

Survivors of sexual abuse deserve accountability, closure, and the resources necessary to rebuild their lives.  Recently, ASK LLP attorney Judie Saunders secured significant million dollar settlements on behalf of survivors.  These legal victories send a powerful message; survivors matter and institutions that conceal abuse will be held accountable.  

HOLDING INSTITUTIONS ACCOUNTABLE FOR FAILING TO PROTECT SURVIVORS

In each case, the survivor bravely came forward after years of trauma and silence.  These settlements reflect ASK LLP’s commitment to uncovering the truth and pursuing justice, whether the abuse occurred in a school, correctional facility, religious institution, or any organization that failed to protect those in its care.

At ASK LLP, we understand that institutions often hide behind policies, bureaucratic barriers, or internal investigations that prioritize reputation over safety.  These settlements underscore when institutions fail to act, ASK LLP will.

WHY THESE SETTLEMENTS MATTER

Sexual abuse settlements are more than just financial transactions; they are a critical mechanism for achieving justice, accountability and systemic change.

• They provide survivors with the resources they need to heal.
• They expose systemic negligence
• They empower other survivors to come forward
• They shift power back to those who were harmed

Settlements are essential because they provide tangible resources to those harmed, and force accountability on the  institutions that enabled the abuse.
