Why Phillips & Associates Law Firm?

We Take on the Powerful. We Protect the Vulnerable.

Sexual abuse cases are unlike any other area of law. They require a unique balance of deep compassion for the survivor and relentless aggression toward the abuser. Whether the abuse occurred recently or years ago, you may still have a path to justice under California law.

We are not afraid to litigate against powerful entities. Our California sex abuse attorneys handle cases against:

Religious Institutions

Churches, diocese, and clergy members.

Educational Systems

Public schools, private boarding schools, and universities.

Corporate Giants

Rideshare companies (Uber/Lyft), hotels, and major employers.

Government Entities

Foster care systems and juvenile detention centers.

Understanding Your Rights Under California Law (AB 218)

It Is Not Too Late to Speak Up.

California has enacted historic legislation, specifically Assembly Bill 218, which significantly extended the statute of limitations for survivors of childhood sexual assault. Even if you were previously told that your “time had run out,” the law has changed. You may now have the ability to file a civil lawsuit for damages, medical care, and pain and suffering.

Extended Deadlines: Survivors of childhood abuse can now file lawsuits well into adulthood.
Accountability: You can sue not just the abuser, but the institutions that covered it up.

Phillips & Associates Law Firm is actively evaluating cases under these new guidelines. Do not assume your case is closed until you speak with us.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a sexual abuse lawyer cost?

Phillips & Associates Law Firm operates on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay no upfront costs. We only receive a fee if we successfully recover a settlement or verdict for you.

Can I remain anonymous?

Yes. We understand the sensitive nature of these claims. In California courts, we can often file complaints using “Jane Doe” or “John Doe” pseudonyms to protect your identity from the public record.

What if the abuse happened 20 years ago?

You may still have a case. California’s “lookback windows” and extended statutes of limitations (AB 218) were designed specifically for survivors who have carried this burden for decades. Contact us to evaluate your specific timeline.
