Lawyer Representing People Sexually Abused in the Catholic Church

Incidents of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church are well-known, as are the Church’s attempts to cover up and even ignore the crimes of sexual predators. Publicity has been a great help in making a positive change -- the more publicity is drawn to the failure of Catholic religious orders in stopping child sexual abuse, the more people come forward with allegations. At the Law Offices of Timothy D. Kosnoff, we are dedicated to assisting the survivors of sexual abuse in bringing successful claims against Catholic priests and the church that supports them.

Abuse by Catholic priests is well-documented and supported by evidence. We are dedicated to bringing legal claims against all parties directly responsible for the attempts to conceal child abuse.

Lawsuits Attacking Clergy Sexual Abuse Can Bring About Change

When individual abusers are revealed, they can be prevented from ever committing child sexual abuse again. In addition to preventing future abuse, legal justice can be very therapeutic for survivors of abuse. Another objective in fighting an organization that enables child sexual abuse to occur is to force the organization to change its ways so that fewer children are victims of sexual abuse in the future.

There are many other Catholic organizations that have been shown to be protecting sexual abusers. Mr. Kosnoff has filed suits against dozens of major and minor Catholic religious orders, including the archdiocese, Jesuits, the Benedictines, and boys’ homes affiliated with the Church, such as the Morningstar Boys Ranch in Spokane. He also handles cases in Idaho and nationally.
