Clergy Abuse

Religious scandals of molestation by Clergy members have been exposed to the public at an alarming rate throughout the news. There are known cases of clergy abuse documented back into the 1980s that have not come to light until recently.

If you or your loved one has suffered injuries as a result of clergy abuse in the state of Massachusetts, our Massachusetts clergy abuse lawyers have the experience and tools necessary to help you recover the compensation you deserve for your injuries and damages resulting from a clergy member’s abuse.

Too often we see clergy abuse suppressed by abusive priests or pastors and their respective churches. For example, many bishops, who cover up for the abusive clergy members, will end up going without any punishment or removal from their position since they hide information about the abuse from the public eye and from their members of the church. An infamous statement used to cover up any current clergy abuse scandal is that ‘the church has been cleaned up.’ Thus, many people do not think that this type of abuse still occurs in their own church. While a decent effort to reform the outbreak of clergy abuse has occurred throughout the United States, it is not okay to assume that others, especially children and adolescents, are safe from this type of abuse in the church.

Our Massachusetts clergy abuse lawyers believe that the clergy ought to be punished and held accountable for their abusive actions and we urge any victims of such abuse to come forward so that the public and the church are aware of the abuser. Unless proper legal action is taken against the abusive clergy member, they continue to be a threat for others.
