About the Firm

Seeking and Securing Justice for Survivors

This is a woman-owned law firm specializing in seeking justice for survivors of sexual abuse, exploitation, and trafficking. After nearly a decade serving as a federal prosecutor, Vanessa saw the need for a firm solely dedicated to helping survivors of sex crimes. Her firm fills that need. Here, clients can have legal representation before, during, and after investigation and prosecution of their offenders. With experience in both federal and state court and in both civil and criminal practice, Vanessa is uniquely positioned to help survivors secure the restitution and compensation to which they are entitled. Her firm has a national practice and serves survivors in states from Florida to Tennessee to California. 

​

In addition to legal advocacy, Vanessa helps her clients have a voice in the judicial system, seek resources tailored to their needs, and feel empowered in overcoming their trauma. Your voice always matters most. The firm works with adults and minors (with the agreement of a parent), and welcomes all without regard for religion, race, gender, or sexual orientation. Vanessa has experience listening to survivors so she can shape litigation to meet your goals. She is compassionate — yet fierce — in her advocacy.
