Re: my husband molested my daughter
In New Jersey the statute of limitations for filing a civil suit for sexual abuse is two years from the date of the assault. In the case of a minor, it is two years from the date of the minor's 18th birthday, when she become twenty. There is one exception, two years from when a person realizes that they were injured as a result of the assault. I am also one of two members in the State of New Jersey in the American Trial Lawyer Association�s child sexual abuse litigation group. Our members share experts, depositions and other discovery and educational information regarding sexual abuse cases. I would be glad to discuss this matter with you in more detail. Please feel free to contact me.
