School Sexual Abuse Attorneys in Phoenix
Working to Hold Educators & Schools Accountable
When you drop your child off at school, you expect that he or she will be relatively safe under the supervision of educators and school officials. Unfortunately, sexual abuse by teachers, aides, and other educators is all too common. Because predators often “groom” children in these types of situations, the effects can be long-lasting and emotionally devastating for the victim and his or her family.

Many people do not realize that schools can be held accountable for negligence when sexual abuse takes place. Our Phoenix school sexual abuse attorneys work to uncover the facts and build a strong case on your behalf. We fight for the justice and recovery our clients are owed.

What Is School Negligence?
Schools and other educational facilities have a reasonable duty to ensure that their students are safe from harm. This includes all types of schools, including both public and private, as well as charter schools and independent study facilities.
A school or educational facility could be considered negligent if it failed to:
- Perform background checks on employees/volunteers
- Maintain adequate or proper educator supervision
- Enforce sexual abuse prevention policies and/or training
- Report instances or claims of sexual abuse
