At Barbieri Law Firm, we understand the difficult time you may be having if you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted. Our office is dedicated to assisting victims of sexual assault, offering compassionate care and individualized support. Sexual assault can hurt a victim in more ways than one. They may suffer physically, financially, and of course, emotionally.

The Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network (RAINN) reports these statistics about sexual assault in the United States:

• 1 in 6 women & 1 in 33 men will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime
• In 2007, there were 248,300 victims of sexual assault
• 60 percent of sexual assaults are not reported to the police

Sexual Assault can happen anywhere; the workplace, public spaces, and even at home. This includes unwanted touching, kissing, or even rape. If you have been the victim of sexual assault, there are a few things to remember:

• Go to a safe environment
• Report the crime to law enforcement or a trusted friend or family member
• Recall any details you remember about the incident, including when, where, how, and any injuries you suffered
• Go to the hospital to be examined and checked for potential evidence and/or injuries
