Holding Buffalo and Rochester Clergy Responsible
New Yorkers who were sexually abused as kids have new rights to make claims against teachers, clergy and other organizations under the new Child Victims Act. Under the new law, someone who survives sexual abuse as a child can bring a claim during a one year window. The window will begin in mid-summer 2019. This is called a “look back” period to bring old claims no matter the age of the survivor.
