What You Need To Know About The Statute Of Limitations
The Statute of Limitations defines how long you have to sue Camp Dorothy Kirby for sexual abuse. While the amount of time varies based on the legal matter of the case, the Statute of Limitations to sue Camp Dorothy Kirby for sexual abuse is 22 years. That means your case must be filed with the court by turning 40. If the case is not in the hands of the court at that time, you lose the right to seek any compensation or justice via a lawsuit.

It is also critical for victims of Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual abuse to know that the time limit to sue for Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual assault or sexual abuse is non-negotiable and final. In almost all cases, there are no exceptions to the Statute of Limitations.

Can I Sue Camp Dorothy Kirby If The Statute Of Limitations Has Already Passed?
In most instances, if you wait until the Statute of Limitations has passed or are unaware it exists and contact Kenmore Law Group after turning 40, you will not be permitted to sue Camp Dorothy Kirby for the sexual abuse or sexual assault you suffered there as a minor. As with most cases, the time limit imposed on victims by the Statute of Limitations offers no exceptions or means to request added time to file a claim. In addition, if you try to file a claim after the Statute of Limitations has passed, the court will reject the case immediately. However, in cases that involve childhood Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual abuse or Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual assault, there is one exception that applies in a minimal number of cases.

The exception is called the five-year discovery period, and it only applies in cases where the victim of Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual abuse or Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual assault does not learn of the sexual violations until after reaching the age of 40. Typically, these were minors who were very young or emotionally immature when the incident occurred. As a result, they were unable to process the pain, trauma, and range of emotions caused by the sexual abuse or assault. As a coping mechanism, they force the thoughts out of their conscious mind to make the pain stop. But these repressed memories do not always stay hidden forever.

Some victims recall the sexual violations on their own, while others discover or rediscover that they were sexually abused or assaulted while working with a counselor or therapist. If the victim is over 40 when the discovery is made, they are given five years to seek help from a Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual abuse lawyer to decide if they wish to pursue a Camp Dorothy Kirby sexual abuse lawsuit. But once the five years have passed, they lose the right to file a claim against Camp Dorothy Kirby for the harm they suffered as a minor in that facility.

If you believe the five-year discovery period could apply to you, please contact Kenmore Law Group immediately.
