Georgia Clergy Abuse Lawyers – Civil Legal Support for Survivors of Sexual Misconduct by Religious Leaders and Institutions

Clergy sexual abuse is a deep violation of faith and trust—inflicting lasting harm on survivors and undermining communities of worship. For too long, many churches and religious institutions in Georgia have shielded abusive clergy from accountability. If you or a loved one was sexually abused by a priest, pastor, bishop, or other religious figure, you are not alone—and legal options are available.

Our Georgia clergy sexual abuse law firm is committed to representing survivors in civil court. We help individuals who were abused in childhood or as adults take legal action not only against their abusers, but also against churches or institutions that enabled, covered up, or ignored the abuse.

Holding Institutions Accountable

It’s not just about one individual—it’s about systems that protected abusers. In many cases, churches:

  • Failed to report abuse to law enforcement

  • Reassigned known abusers to other parishes

  • Ignored repeated warnings or complaints

  • Silenced victims through threats or settlements

You have the right to file a civil lawsuit even if the criminal statute of limitations has passed. Our legal team can evaluate your case and help determine if you're eligible to take legal action under Georgia law.

Compensation May Include:

  • Costs for counseling and psychological care

  • Pain and suffering, both emotional and physical

  • Loss of income due to trauma or job disruption

  • Punitive damages in cases of gross negligence or cover-ups

Why Work With Our Clergy Abuse Attorneys
