Nuestro abogado de confianza en casos de abuso sexual en prisiones ayuda a las víctimas de agresión sexual en prisión a restablecer la justicia

Prison Sexual Abuse Lawyer

La victimización sexual es una forma frecuente de violencia en los centros de detención de todo el estado de Nueva York, que incluye desde amenazas hasta violaciones en prisión. Es ilegal en Nueva York que un guardia penitenciario o cualquier otro miembro del personal tenga cualquier forma de conducta sexual con un residente, ya sea que el recluso haya dado su consentimiento o no.

La agresión sexual en las prisiones no se limita al abuso infligido a los reclusos por parte del personal; la violencia sexual entre reclusos también es frecuente.

El abuso sexual en las prisiones es un problema de derechos humanos que puede tener un impacto significativo en la salud física y mental de la víctima, que incluye:

  • Depresión y ansiedad situacional
  • Ideación suicida o autolesión
  • Enfermedades de transmisión sexual
  • Embarazos no deseados
  • Disminución de la calidad de vida

Los presos que han sido agredidos sexualmente pueden sentir vergüenza y culparse a sí mismos por la agresión, pero estamos aquí para ayudarlo a recuperar su dignidad y encontrar justicia. Nuestros abogados especializados en casos de abuso de presos con sede en Nueva York atienden casos en todo el país.

I cannot rate the firm any higher! we are extremely happy with the service we received from Brad, Chris and the team. We are northern Irish citizens and as such had no experience of the US justice system, Chris and Brad helped us navigate this and made sure we understood every step of the process and we were kept informed of what would happen with the case.

We also felt that Brad and Chris had a genuine interest in our story, what the implications for us as a family were and they were genuinely invested in how they could help our situation.

We were reassured by the manor in which Chris and Brad dealt with us and trusted that the advice we were given was always well balanced and in our best interests. We were extremely happy with the outcome the firm achieved for us and feel that we only got this outcome due to the hard work of Chris and Brad. I would not hesitate to recommend the firm to anyone who is considering a case and wants to feel as though they are really valued as a client.

Many thanks to the firm for all of their hard work on our behalf it truly is appreciated.

Let’s go to the beginning when I realize that I was going to need legal assistance because I was shocked that I was actually injured I called my fiancé and told her that I was going to need a lawyer, so she googled the top 5  personal injury law firms in NY and The Jacob Fuchsberg Law Firm came up. One of the representatives from the firm took the time to come personally to my home to see me, that immediately showed me that I was going to be able to make it through my pain and suffering they understood what I was going through and with patience, persistence, and diligence they were able to get the best results possible in settling my case. I highly recommend the Jacob Fuchsberg Law firm when the unexpected happens you will not be dissatisfied with the kind, courteous and professionalism that you would expect from a law firm.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a sexual assault or abuse claim in New York?

Arrow icon

Sexual assault claims for incidents in a New York correctional facility must be filed within 90 days of the occurrence. Furthermore, NYC law stipulates that detention facility abuse claims must be investigated and the investigation concluded within 90 days. (§ 5-02 Definitions Related to Sexual Abuse)

What if the prison staff member involved claims that the relationship was consensual?

Arrow icon

Both federal and New York state laws rule that any sexual relations between prison inmates and the correctional facility staff are a criminal offense. By their nature, prisoners cannot legally consent to sexual activity, even if the sexual act would have been considered consensual if it didn’t occur in prison. (See 18 U.S.C. § 2243 [c]; N.Y. Penal Law § 130.05.)

Which law established a zero-tolerance for rape and sexual assault in prison?

Arrow icon

The 2003 federal Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (PREA) was established to prevent sexual violence in jails, prisons, and detention centers and to respond in a timely manner to complaints of abuse.
