Australian historical sexual abuse juvenile detention claims
Australian survivors of historical sexual abuse in juvenile detention often live with the devastating life-long impacts of failure to protect them from abuse. When operating a juvenile detention centre, the state acts in a parent or guardian role and has a duty of care to protect children and teens (who have often already experienced trauma).
Shine’s expert, trauma-informed Abuse Law team have deep expertise in building and resolving juvenile detention historical abuse claims. Making a historical abuse claim won’t erase what happened to you, but it may be an opportunity to:
To hold someone (or an institution) to account
For acknowledgement of what happened to you
For an apology
Historical abuse compensation may help with the impact that abuse has had on your life.
