Teacher Sexual Abuse Attorneys

The Ehline Law Firm PC is dedicated to protecting the rights of children that have suffered sexual molestation and other lewd acts against a child. Teachers are depended on by parents to educate their children and trusted by students. Unfortunately, this makes it easier for the teacher to take advantage of the student.

Sexual wrongdoing by teachers in the public school system is all too common and often under-reported. There are reasons why these cases are under-reported including:

Failure of the school officials to properly screen potential teachers. This has long been an area where school systems are lax.

Public school and private school systems often attempt to hide suspected molestation or sexual abuse, by dismissing the teacher or transferring them to another school.

Teacher Sexual Abuse Facts

There are statistics and facts about student sexual abuse, proving that this is an offense that does occur and is not reported as often as it occurs.

A congressional study that was conducted found that in schools one out of every ten students has or will be the victim of sexual wrongdoing by a teacher or other school employee before they graduate.

The sexual molestation of male students is often trivialized by the media.

Sexual molestation of a female student is often sensationalized by the media.

The evidence of sexual abuse often depends on the victim’s testimony.

X-rays, CT scans and other medical tests cannot prove sexual molestation occurred.

Sexually abused students often repress the abuse until adulthood. This can be until the child reaches their 30’s before they allow the thoughts to surface.

Teachers and other school employees in the state of California are required to report suspected child abuse by another teacher. This is their mandatory duty to report the allegations and when they do not they play a role in allowing the sexual molestation to continue.
The victim that has suffered sexual molestation and abuse from a teacher has the legal right to hold them accountable and the school system that made it possible for the teacher to be in a position to abuse children.
