Who Can Be Held Liable for Sexual Assault?

Many sexual assault survivors are unaware that they may have grounds to file a civil lawsuit against parties beyond the individual perpetrator. Third parties are frequently held liable for sexual assaults that take place on their properties or under their supervision. 

If you are sexually assaulted at a business, for example, the store owner or manager may be held responsible for negligent security or failing to keep customers safe. Liability could go to a school, employer, social host, business, doctor’s office, church and many other parties, depending on the circumstances.
