Schools are supposed to be the safest place a child can be. So what happens when they aren't?

Cardinal Law has filed suit against a Crawford County school district after a five-year-old girl was allegedly sexually assaulted by a classmate during a P.E. class. School officials reportedly knew the classmate posed a danger to others before it happened. After the assault, the victim spent the rest of the school day in the same classroom as her alleged abuser. No one intervened.

When a school fails the children in its care, civil litigation is how families demand the accountability the system didn't provide. This child missed nearly two months of school. She continues to carry the effects of what happened to her on school grounds, on the school's watch.

If your child has been harmed at school and you believe the district failed in its duty to protect them, Missouri law may give you a path forward. We are here to walk it with you.

Government records are public for a reason. When officials hide them, the public pays the price.

Cardinal Law has filed suits in Franklin County and Jefferson County against two governmental bodies that refused to disclose public records related to the conduct and investigation of a former peace officer. We believe Missouri's Sunshine Law required them to respond. They chose not to.

When public officials and governmental bodies operate in the dark, civil litigation is how the light gets in. Cardinal Law is asking the courts to compel disclosure and impose penalties for what are alleged to be violations of Missouri's open records law.

The people deserve to know.

When the criminal justice system convicts an abuser, it punishes the conduct. It does not heal the survivor.

Cardinal Law has filed suit in St. Louis County against a former Missouri municipal police officer previously sentenced for the statutory so**my of a minor, and against the family members alleged to have facilitated that abuse. The criminal case closed without a single dollar of restitution to the child he harmed.

Civil litigation is how survivors take back what the criminal courts cannot give them: accountability on their own terms, recognition of what was lost, and the financial resources to rebuild.

If you or someone you love has survived sexual abuse, by a person in authority, by a family member, or by anyone who used trust as a weapon, Missouri law gives you a path forward. We are here to walk it with you.
