Finding Justice after an Assault in Pembroke Pines or Your CommunitySurvivors of sexual assault often need to take time to heal after the trauma of their attack. However, many survivors also bravely seek justice in their situation and seek to ensure that others are not injured in a similar way.
There many ways to seek justice after an assault.

Many survivors also choose to work with advocacy groups to help other survivors of assault.
A third option for survivors is to seek a civil claim against the perpetrator and other liable parties. Seeking a civil claim is something different than seeking to press criminal charges against the attacker. In a civil claim, survivors can seek compensation as well as punitive damages from their attacker, other liable parties, and any insurance company representing the liable parties.
