Springfield Psychotherapist Sex Abuse Lawyer: Victim Representation Announced

Jan 22, 2024

Abuse Guardian, a legal alliance specializing in sexual misconduct cases, now offers complimentary consultations to individuals in Springfield, MO, who have been molested by their psychotherapists.

Abuse Guardian understands the sensitive nature of sexual abuse and the power imbalances that may prevent victims from seeking help. To represent victims in Springfield, it has designated Atty. Ryan Frazier as its legal advocate, tasked with educating clients about applicable laws, compensation options, and the types of lawsuits they may file (civil or criminal).

Atty. Frazier strives to secure the maximum compensation for emotional, psychological, and financial damages, including medical expenses, therapy costs, and lost income. Time limits for filing claims vary, so seeking prompt legal advice is crucial.

PSYCHOLOGIST SEX ABUSE PREVALENCE

The American Psychological Association (APA) Code of Ethics strictly prohibits sexual relations between psychotherapists and their patients. However, an article from The Boston Globe reports that up to 12% of therapists have been sexually intimate with clients.

Given that sexual abuse is often underreported, this figure is likely an underestimate of the real prevalence of psychologist-patient molestation. By designating a lawyer who specializes in this legal niche, such as Atty. Frazier, Abuse Guardian hopes to encourage more victims to come forward and sue perpetrators.

CONFIDENTIAL CONSULTATIONS

Confidentiality and privacy are important to Atty. Frazier. As such, consultations can be conducted online or via phone to protect a plaintiff’s identity - especially if they are underage. His firm operates on a contingency basis, meaning fees are only collected if it successfully obtains compensation for a client.

COMPASSIONATE SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE

Recognizing the emotional toll of sexual abuse, Atty. Frazier provides compassionate service, which includes connecting clients with advocacy groups and reputable therapists. This ensures that victims continue to get the support they need even after their case is resolved.

Atty. Frazier says: “To abuse a patient is a betrayal of one’s oath to help people heal. That’s why my team is dedicated to assisting victims like you get the justice they deserve. There are no upfront costs, so you can focus on recovering from this traumatic event instead of worrying about legal bills.”

Abuse Guardian and its 15 partner lawyers throughout the country also help individuals who experienced sexual abuse in daycare centers and prep schools.
