What to Do If You Are Sexually Assaulted or Raped
If you’re a victim of sexual abuse, there are several steps you should take to protect your safety and legal rights.
Seek safety: Your immediate priority is to get to a safe place away from the perpetrator — if you are in immediate danger, call 911.
Seek medical attention: It's crucial to seek medical attention as soon as possible, even if you don't have visible injuries — a medical exam can document injuries, collect evidence, and provide necessary testing for STIs and pregnancy.
Report the assault: Reporting the assault to law enforcement can help initiate a criminal investigation and hold the perpetrator accountable.
Preserve evidence: To preserve potential DNA evidence, avoid showering, bathing, changing clothes, or cleaning the area where the assault occurred.
Seek emotional support: Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, therapist, or sexual assault hotline for emotional support and guidance.
Contact a Los Angeles sexual assault attorney: An attorney can help you understand your rights, explore your options, and navigate the legal process.
You should not bear any blame for the incident, but these steps are vital so you can remain safe and pursue justice.

What is the difference between sexual assault and sexual harassment?
While both are forms of sexual abuse, sexual assault involves non-consensual sexual contact or behavior, while sexual harassment refers to unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that creates a hostile or offensive environment.
I'm not sure whether what happened to me is considered sexual abuse — what should I do?
If you feel like you’ve been a victim of any form of sexual misconduct, it's important to seek support and guidance. You can confidentially discuss your situation with a sexual assault advocate, therapist, or attorney to understand your rights and options.
What if the sexual abuse happened a long time ago? Can I still file a claim?
California has extended the statute of limitations for certain types of sexual abuse cases, allowing survivors more time to come forward and seek justice. An attorney can assess your specific situation and advise you on the applicable deadlines and legal options available.
