Sexual Abuse Cases We Handle for New Castle Survivors

Across New Castle and Lawrence County, abuse can occur in schools, churches, medical practices, childcare centers, and youth organizations.

Ashley represents New Castle survivors and their families in civil cases such as:

If you are not sure whether what happened to you “counts,” it costs nothing to ask. A civil claim is separate from any criminal case: you do not need a police report, a criminal charge, or a conviction to speak with a lawyer about your options.

Accountability in the New Castle Area

Lawrence County is served by the Diocese of Pittsburgh, which was named in Pennsylvania’s statewide grand-jury report, and survivors across western Pennsylvania continue to come forward. A civil claim is often the only way a New Castle survivor can force a powerful institution to disclose what it knew and change how it protects people.

How Long Do You Have to File a Sex Abuse Case in Pennsylvania?

Pennsylvania sets specific deadlines for civil abuse claims, and those rules have shifted in recent years, so confirm yours before assuming the door is closed. How long a New Castle survivor has can turn on age, when the abuse occurred, and details unique to the case. What matters most is this: even abuse from many years ago may still be within the deadline, and waiting can forfeit the right to file. A free, confidential call with Ashley DiLiberto gives you a clear, accurate answer about your specific deadline: at no cost and no obligation.
