$74 million Sexual abuse lawsuit 314

Sexual Harassment is another area of San Diego Personal Injury Law.

A Roman Catholic diocese in Delaware has offered $74 million to settle a sexual abuse case involving 150 claims that date back as far as the 1950’s. A Wilmington attorney representing 98 of the plaintiffs describes the offer as “woefully inadequate” and expects almost twice the amount before settling. The diocese filed for bankruptcy in 2009, and under the recent offer, victims would be required to “agree to drop all legal action against the diocese and parishes.”  San Diego personal injury attorney Tom Hals, Reuters  01/11/2011
