Waterbury Sexual Abuse Attorney Paul Slager Helps Psychotherapy Victims
Recent years have seen increased awareness of the growing incidence of sexual abuse in medical settings - and psychotherapy poses unique challenges due to the closer relationship that tends to form between patient and therapist.
Abuse Guardian’s Connecticut advocate attorney Paul Slager extends his legal services to survivors of psychotherapist sexual abuse in Waterbury and beyond.
Paul Slager offers a compassionate, fully confidential legal service for individuals who experienced sexual abuse during psychotherapy.
As part of the Abuse Guardian network of dedicated sexual abuse attorneys, Paul has extensive access to resources allowing him and his clients to take the most efficient legal route, depending on the each situation.
Contacting an attorney as soon as possible is essential to minimize long-term damage associated with the abuse, and ensure that justice gets served, says Paul. He urges individuals who believe they have been victims of potential abuse to document all potential evidence and contact an experienced attorney as soon as possible.
With abuse cases that happen in institutional settings, determining liability may be more complex than just holding the therapist responsible, explains the attorney.
“Liability for doctor sexual abuse may extend beyond the individual practitioner involved,” explains Paul. “In some cases, the hospital or healthcare facility where the abuse occurred could also be held responsible for failing to adequately supervise or investigate allegations against their staff members. This shared liability reflects the duty of care that healthcare institutions have towards their patients.”
Paul Slager is currently offering free, no-obligation consultations to help sexual abuse survivors identify their immediate legal options and get a better understanding of their potential case.
Paul Slager is the only trial attorney with three different verdicts or settlements included in the Connecticut Law Tribune’s Personal Injury Hall of Fame, and his accolades also include five consecutive entries in the Top 10 Attorneys in Connecticut, between 2019 and 2023.
