Our client, a thirteen year old female student, was sexually molested by the Dean of her school. The assailant was conivcted of sodomy and sexual molestation of a minor. Through a lengthy discovery process, our lawyers were able to show that the Board of Education should have known that the principal had a history of sexual misconduct. We helped to find that there were prior complaints from parents and students against the principal. Our client was put under the care of a phychologist for a number of years, and she was diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder. Prior to trial, we were able to get the Board of Education to resolve this matter in the high six-figures.
