At Koffels, our experienced lawyers provide legal services to clients who have suffered from institutional child sexual abuse. We understand the devastating impact this kind of abuse can have on victims and their families, and we are here to help.
Our team has represented numerous individuals who have suffered abuse in institutional contexts, including schools and churches. We have a particular expertise in cases involving the Christian Brothers and De La Salle institutions, and have successfully advocated for victims before the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.
At Koffels, we believe that everyone should have access to justice, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we offer a “no win no fee” arrangement for our professional legal fees when we believe that your case is reasonably likely to succeed.
This means that, with the exception of “out of pocket expenses” such as records and reports, you do not have to pay our professional legal fees unless you are successful in your claim.
We know that pursuing legal action can be stressful, which is why we aim to make the process as simple as possible for our clients. Our dedicated team will be with you every step of the way, keeping you informed and supported throughout.

You may have legal rights to a civil claim for financial compensation for sexual abuse suffered. In fact, each claim is different and laws vary from state to state, so you should always seek legal advice to find out your entitlements.
In 2018 there was the establishment of The Commonwealth Redress Scheme. We note that the scheme isn’t intended to impinge on individual’s rights to make a common law claim, however we cannot be certain. This means that there is no better time than now to act.
Our expert sexual abuse lawyer can help you get the compensation you deserve. In addition, our dedicated team understand the difficulties you are facing, and will make sure the process is as simple as possible.
If you would like to discuss this further please do not hesitate to contact us.
