Child Sex Abuse and the Catholic Church
Priests, nuns and other religious authority figures in the Catholic Church occupy a powerful position of trust in the minds of their parishioners. Even more so among the children who serve as altar boys and girls or who attend Catholic schools. So much so in fact that many children will simply go along with or do anything a nun or priest asks them to do.
Child sexual abuse shatters that trust and more.
At the Law Office of Robert D. Kizer, we provide a safe, supportive environment where adults and children who have been sexually abused by Catholic clergy can find the help they need to obtain justice and compensation. We also put people in touch with resources that can help them move past what happened in a positive way. Our ultimate goal is to stop the cycle of abuse so that, someday, there will be no more new victims.
You couldn't then. Now you can. Take action to stop the cycle of child sex abuse within the Catholic Church and call or contact our offices in Austin, Texas, to schedule a free, confidential consultation with attorney Robert D. Kizer.
Protecting Your Religion and Protecting Others
For a very, very long time, the Catholic Church was able to keep stories of child sex abuse quiet. In recent decades, however, there have been a number of high-profile child sex abuse cases involving members of the Catholic Church. This, in turn, has significantly tarnished the church's reputation in the eyes of the public at large.
One result is that victims are often hesitant to pursue legal claims because they feel as though they are somehow attacking the religion they still believe in. In truth, coming forward to acknowledge the abuse and to seek appropriate compensation is both a way to encourage the church to make positive changes (protecting it from even greater damage) and to prevent individual predators from continuing to create new victims.
