Compassion for Survivors – Determination for Justice

AVA Law Group balances empathetic, survivor-focused advocacy with a pursuit of justice. We know that coming forward about sexual abuse can be incredibly difficult – it requires immense courage and trust. Our attorneys and staff are dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment from the moment you first contact us.

Survivor-Centered Support: You are not just a case to us – you are a survivor taking back control of your story. We listen to you with respect and compassion. Your healing is our priority. We employ trauma-informed practices to minimize re-traumatization during legal proceedings. You are not alone, and it was not your fault. These are core truths we make sure every client understands.

Giving Voice to the Silenced: “Our mission is to give survivors a voice.” This means we involve you in every step and make sure your voice is heard and respected. We will clearly explain your legal options and help you make informed decisions about how to proceed. Many survivors find that pursuing a civil lawsuit – on their terms – is an empowering step in reclaiming their lives.

Advocacy for Justice: While we approach our clients with empathy, we approach the perpetrators and responsible institutions with tenacity and zero tolerance for abuse. Our lawyers are relentless in holding abusers accountable – whether through aggressive negotiation or at trial before a jury. We refuse to let powerful organizations escape responsibility for enabling abuse.

We define success not just by verdicts, but by the healing and empowerment of our clients
