sexual and institutional abuse

Our firm is currently acting for more than 600 clients who, as children, were abused while in the care of a church or a state institution such as an orphanage, hospital or reformatory.

The Institutional Abuse Team at Ryan Carlisle Thomas have pursued claims against the Irish Redress Fund and the Western Australian, Queensland and Tasmanian Redress Funds.

In addition, claims are being pursued against the State of Victoria and various religious institutions including the Salvation Army, the Christian Brothers, the Uniting Church, the Anglican Church etc.

Claims can also be pursued against individuals.

Claims of sexual and institutional abuse are managed by Angela Sdrinis, an Accredited Specialist in personal injury law. Angela has extensive experience in this arena and has helped many clients achieve recognition of, and compensation for, the abuse they have endured.
