Re: Pedophilia
In some instances one may have a reasonable time following discovery of a childhood wrong within which to bring legal action in New Mexico. You need to obtain a professional analysis of the timeline of your situation. Most personal injury lawyers will extend a 30 minute case evaluation at no cost. Do not delay, however, if you intend to pursue this, as time is against you at this point.
