Rape & Sexual Assault Attorneys Serving Alpharetta, Atlanta, and All of Georgia
Sadly, rape and sexual assault are among the most common crimes resulting from unsafe property conditions. Owners who allow their commercial property to remain unsafe are extending an invitation to criminals, and they ought to be held responsible when innocent residents or guests are assaulted.
At Van Sant Law, it is our belief that rape and sexual assault are two of the most horrible crimes imaginable. They violate their victims’ senses of dignity, integrity, wellness, and self.
It isn’t enough to prosecute the perpetrators with criminal charges. The people who created circumstances conducive to rape and assault should be held accountable too. Certainly, victims can’t be asked to endure the emotional and financial toll of their assaults alone.
Fortunately, Georgia personal injury law provides comprehensive compensation to victims. The cases can be difficult to negotiate or litigate in court, but if you’ve been victimized by rape or sexual assault, the last thing you need is the emotional roller coaster of a lawsuit. That’s why we do everything we can to shoulder that burden ourselves.
As our client, you will be treated with compassion, sensitivity, and respect. It’s our goal to restore justice to your life as much as we possibly can. You can trust in the confidence of an Alpharetta premises liability attorney at Van Sant Law.
