Sexual assault leaves lasting emotional, physical, and psychological scars. Survivors not only face pain and trauma—they often encounter silence, denial, or intimidation from those responsible. At Orange Law, Attorney Karan Joshi is a trusted Sexual Assault Lawyer in Houston who stands with survivors and helps them pursue justice through civil legal action. Whether the assailant was an individual, employer, educator, or institution, you have legal rights, and we’re here to protect them.
Texas consistently ranks among the highest in reported sexual assaults, with many cases involving vulnerable populations, including minors and employees
Incidents often occur in places of trust—schools, workplaces, hospitals, religious institutions, rideshares, or even within families.
Survivors may face PTSD, anxiety, job loss, depression, and long-term medical care, in addition to the trauma itself.
You have the right to take civil legal action—even if the criminal system does not result in a conviction. We fight to hold perpetrators and negligent parties accountable.
Survivors can file a lawsuit for damages directly against the individual responsible for the assault, even if they were never charged or convicted.
Companies, schools, and churches can be held liable if they failed to prevent known risks or ignored complaints about abusers.
Civil lawsuits can seek compensation for medical bills, lost income, therapy, relocation costs, and emotional distress.
Texas law allows survivors of sexual assault additional time to come forward in some cases, especially when the survivor was a minor.
If an employer failed to conduct background checks or protect employees from a known offender, they may be held responsible.
Educational institutions may be sued for negligence if they allowed staff, teachers, or students to harm others under their care.
Rideshare companies and commercial drivers can be held accountable for hiring dangerous individuals or failing to enforce safety policies.
Doctors, clergy, or caregivers who violate trust may be liable personally, and the institutions may face civil consequences as well.
Navigating civil claims after an assault is incredibly sensitive. At Orange Law, we ensure your case is handled with discretion, dignity, and purpose.
You control how far the legal action goes. We advise and guide—but always follow your lead.
We take care to avoid re-traumatization and handle every detail with empathy and respect.
We gather records, witness testimony, and internal complaints that prove negligence or misconduct beyond the individual attacker.
We pursue damages not just for what happened, but for what it cost you emotionally, mentally, and financially.
The person who committed the act can be sued directly for damages, regardless of a criminal outcome.
If they ignored red flags, enabled misconduct, or created unsafe environments, they may share legal responsibility.
Failure to report, investigate, or discipline known offenders can make the institution liable under civil law.
If negligent security or poor access controls contributed to the assault, property managers may be held accountable.
Survivors often hesitate to come forward. We help protect your identity and privacy where possible during legal proceedings.
Schools, churches, and corporations may deny knowledge of abuse or use internal policies to shield offenders.
There may be several parties at fault, each with its own insurer and legal team. We uncover every angle to maximize your claim.
Although Texas offers exceptions for survivors, deadlines still apply, especially for adult claims. The sooner you act, the stronger your case.
You deserve a legal advocate who listens, respects, and takes action. Attorney Karan Joshi works with survivors in Houston to hold wrongdoers accountable—both individuals and the systems that protected them.
