Imagine sitting in your living room, holding a letter that could change everything. It’s the first step toward holding one of the most powerful religious institutions in America accountable. Filing a sexual assault lawsuit against the LDS Church isn’t just a legal action—it’s a personal stand for justice.
Why Filing Matters in 2025
This year is pivotal for survivors. Changes in statute of limitations and ongoing investigations have opened legal doors that were once closed. For many, this may be the first real chance to seek accountability and secure compensation for the harm suffered.
The Survivor’s Path – How the Claim Process Works
- The Quiet Gathering of Evidence
Before any papers are filed, survivors often work with attorneys to collect personal accounts, witness statements, church records, and medical documentation. This step builds the foundation of the case. - The Formal Legal Filing
Attorneys submit a civil complaint in the appropriate court, outlining the abuse, its impact, and the legal grounds for holding the LDS Church responsible. - The Church’s Response
The LDS Church is given a legal deadline to respond. They may deny, attempt to settle quietly, or challenge the validity of the claim. - The Road to Resolution
This could mean settlement negotiations, mediation, or trial. Each path requires survivor persistence and strong legal representation.
Special Legal Considerations for LDS Claims
Lawsuits against the LDS Church often involve unique legal hurdles—church confidentiality, institutional denial, and attempts to discredit survivors. Specialized attorneys know how to navigate these tactics and ensure survivors’ voices aren’t silenced.
The Emotional Landscape of Filing a Claim
Beyond courtrooms and paperwork, there’s the emotional reality: anxiety, resurfaced trauma, and fear of community backlash. Survivor support groups and trauma-informed lawyers can make this journey less isolating.
Accessing Survivor-Centered Legal Help
In 2025, multiple law firms across the U.S. are prioritizing LDS sexual assault claims. Many work on a contingency fee basis—meaning survivors pay nothing unless compensation is awarded. This ensures financial barriers don’t block justice.
