The announcement comes as sexual abuse continues to be a major issue in American schools, with over 81% of students having experienced sexual harassment in schools - and more than a third having been harassed by teachers or school employees.
Kristen works closely with abuse survivors and their families to help them explore the best legal options for their situation. Victims of prep school sexual abuse are entitled to compensation for any medical expenses associated with the abuse, including therapy costs, and the related pain, suffering, and emotional distress. Pursuing justice often involves holding accountable both the individual perpetrator and the school, explains Kristen - and she and her legal team are ready to help survivors get the justice they deserve.
Depending on a wide range of factors - severity and duration of abuse, emotional distress, and others - settlements in school sexual abuse cases can exceed $1 million. Obtaining full compensation is both essential to help survivors on their recovery journey, and an important part of holding the liable institution fully responsible - and encouraging it to implement the necessary measures to mitigate the risk of future abuse.
As part of the Abuse Guardian alliance of sexual abuse attorneys, Kristen has access to a wide network of resources to ensure optimal representation for survivors.
A client said: “I'm very pleased with my decision to hire Kristen. She is very hard-working and very well organized. I always felt I was in good hands. I was impressed that she routinely made herself available for guidance and to answer questions, often after business hours and on weekends. I was continually apprised of what was happening and never left to wonder. She seems to care very much about what she does and those she represents. I appreciate her and her team and would certainly recommend her to others.”
