Dedicated Sexual Assault and Abuse Attorneys Advocating for Survivors

Perpetrators of sexual assault and abuse often target the most vulnerable among us—children, the elderly, and individuals with disabilities. Erin Lueker, a former Prosecuting Attorney for the State of Missouri, has spent years fighting for justice on behalf of these victims. Her experience prosecuting sexual predators solidified her commitment to being a strong advocate for survivors.

 Now, Erin applies the same determination and legal expertise in civil cases, seeking justice and accountability for those who have suffered abuse. At our firm, we fight tirelessly to ensure our clients receive the compensation and closure they deserve while working to prevent similar injustices in the future.

 Many cases of sexual abuse go unreported, leaving countless victims without justice. When these crimes do come to light, the perpetrators should be prosecuted, and those who allowed the abuse to happen must also be held accountable. Sedey Harper Westhoff is committed to standing up for survivors and ensuring institutions take responsibility for their failures to protect those in their care.

 Standing Up for Vulnerable Victims

During her tenure with the State of Missouri, Erin prosecuted numerous sexual abuse cases, from child molestation to violent sexual assault. She has worked with survivors of all ages and her experience has given her deep insight into the resilience of survivors and the urgent need for legal action to hold abusers accountable.

 If you or someone you love has suffered sexual abuse in an institution such as a church, daycare, nursing home, school, or residential facility, we are here to help. No one should suffer in silence, and those responsible must be held to account.

 Legal Support for Survivors of Sexual Assault and Abuse

Victims of sexual abuse often face overwhelming emotions, including shame, fear, and uncertainty about their options. These crimes leave lasting physical and emotional scars, making it difficult to move forward.

 While criminal prosecution is an important step in seeking justice, it does not always provide the support victims need to heal and rebuild their lives. In addition to holding perpetrators criminally responsible, civil legal action can ensure victims receive financial compensation and force institutions to implement necessary changes to prevent future abuse.

 At Sedey Harper Westhoff, we help survivors secure settlements, providing them with the resources they need to recover. A civil lawsuit not only offers financial relief but also helps drive meaningful change, ensuring those in positions of trust are held to the highest standards of accountability.
