CAASE Legal Services

CAASE attorneys handle criminal and civil matters and can work to:

• Assert and uphold your victim’s rights within the criminal justice system by advocating for you. For example: joining you at law enforcement interviews, following up with police, arguing in court, and more
• Getting you legal protection from offenders through protective orders
• Pushing for support, accommodations, and accountability from your employer and/or school (often through Title IX)
• Seeking financial damages from your perpetrator, employer, or school through civil lawsuits
• Taking action against revenge porn and cyber sexual abuse
• Helping clear criminal records for sex trafficking survivors

For more information about CAASE’s legal services or this event, please contact our Legal Director, Elizabeth Payne, at 773-244-2230, ext. 209, or email legal@caase.org.
