Helping Survivors of Abuse
We understand that bringing an abuse claim takes a lot of strength and courage. Our lawyers will handle your case in a caring and sensitive manner, offering you complete support and guidance at every stage.
At GoodLaw Solicitors LLP, we have many years of experience in helping victims of sexual, mental and physical abuse. We can make a claim against the person who carried out the abuse, but also often against the organisation that employed the abuser in appropriate cases. Even if the abuse happened a long time ago, we may still be able to help you.
Due to the sensitive nature of abuse claims, we know that speaking to a specialist directly may be a preferred option. Deborah Corcoran has specialised in abuse claims for over 22 years. She has represented hundreds of survivors, adults and children in difficult cases against institutions and individuals. To speak to Deborah directly please call 01273 254173, or visit her profile for more information.
