## Frequently Asked Questions (Summary)

Q: Can I claim if the abuse happened years ago?
A: In many cases, yes. Many jurisdictions have extended or removed time limits for abuse claims, particularly child sexual abuse.

Q: Do I need a criminal conviction?
A: No. Civil claims use the balance of probabilities standard, which is lower than the criminal standard.

Q: Can I claim against an institution?
A: Yes. Schools, churches, care homes, local authorities, and employers may be liable through vicarious liability.

Q: What if the abuser has died?
A: Claims can often proceed against the institution responsible. Claims against estates may also be possible.

Q: Is my enquiry confidential?
A: Yes. All enquiries are handled with strict confidentiality.
