Seeking legal help after abuse is a personal decision. You may have questions about accountability, privacy and what pursuing a civil case would involve. Jonathan D. Winters represents survivors in civil claims involving sexual abuse and domestic violence.
An initial conversation is an opportunity to discuss your concerns and ask about potential representation. You do not need to describe the abuse in detail in a website form.
A $1.8 million judgment after trial
Jonathan obtained a $1.8 million judgment after a bench trial in a civil case involving domestic violence and child sexual abuse. A bench trial is a trial decided by a judge.
Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case requires evaluation of its own facts, evidence and applicable law.
A conversation about your concerns and goals
Jonathan’s approach combines preparation for litigation with attention to the person bringing the claim. The office can discuss potential representation, the information needed for evaluation and how to provide sensitive material after initial contact.
Questions about the legal process, privacy and the possible demands of a case belong in that conversation. The firm will need to assess the circumstances before agreeing to represent you.
What to share when you first contact us
Provide your name, a safe telephone number or email address, and preferences about messages or return calls. A brief statement that you wish to discuss a civil abuse matter is enough for the initial request.
Please do not send graphic details, confidential records or time-sensitive information through the website. Contacting the office does not create an attorney-client relationship.
