Your Legal Right to Speak Up

Most people are now aware of the Royal Commission into institutionalised abuse within the clergy, schools and other community groups. One of the many reasons the Royal Commission was instigated was to allow victims to come forward and tell their story of suffering. It is hoped that those stories will allow improvement to the law and systems to prevent sexual assault or failing that, recognise when it occurs and appropriately deal with perpetrators and assist victims.

Claims for compensation for victims are now also available. Such claims provide another avenue for victims to tell their story and also to receive compensation following often great suffering. Previously, victims were restricted to bringing claims within short periods such as 3 years or in some cases 12 years.

Time limits for bringing claims for sexual or serious physical abuse have now been removed for those suffering such abuse when aged under 18 years. The Limitation Amendment (Child Abuse) Act 2016 now allows claims to be brought when the sexual or serious physical abuse occurred many decades ago.
