Institutional abuse refers to abuse that occurred in settings such as schools, churches, orphanages, or other organisations responsible for the care or supervision of children. At Foye Legal, we provide expert legal representation to hold these institutions accountable and secure the compensation survivors deserve. The right lawyer is everything for achieving the best outcome in challenging times.
Institutional abuse claims allow survivors to hold institutions accountable for their failures. While the National Redress Scheme provides an avenue for survivors, a separate claim may result in higher compensation.
Workplace sexual harassment claims address unlawful and inappropriate behaviour in professional environments. We provide legal advice to employees seeking justice, compensation and workplace reform.
Forced adoptions caused significant harm to parents and children. We help survivors of forced adoption pursue justice and compensation for the trauma they endured.
Abuse or neglect in aged care facilities is a growing concern. We assist families and residents in holding facilities accountable and pursuing compensation for mistreatment.
Intentional tort claims address deliberate acts of harm, including sexual abuse. These claims seek justice for survivors and compensation for pain, suffering, and associated losses.
Abuse victims may be eligible for compensation under government schemes or through independent claims. We provide guidance on your legal rights and options for seeking redress.
If you are ready to take the first step, contact Foye Legal for a confidential, obligation-free discussion with one of our caring institutional abuse lawyers. We are here to listen and support you on your path to justice and healing.
