Have you recently experienced sexual misconduct and are unsure of what to do or who to trust? Satawa Law, PLLC in Southfield, MI, is here for you, providing the emotional and legal support you need to be made whole.
Being a victim of date rape or campus sexual assault is an emotionally shattering experience—possibly one of the most devastating a person can endure. Unfortunately, as traumatic as it is in itself, that’s often just the beginning.
What compounds on top of it is the complex legal, academic, and social ramifications that so often follow. If you’re reading this and have either experienced it yourself or someone close to you has, you’re very likely feeling an intense sense of confusion, fear, and anger all at the same time. This is overpowering for so many, and understandably so.
Satawa Law, PLLC, based in Southfield, MI, understands the profound impacts these sorts of impacts can have on victims and their families. Our date rape lawyer, Mark Satawa, specializes in these cases. Before becoming a date rape lawsuit lawyer, he served as Assistant Prosecutor for Wayne County, as well as a Michigan Assistant Attorney General. Mark’s trial experience includes hundreds of felony jury trials.
Mark’s experience is only half of the arsenal he has at his disposal when serving as your date rape defense lawyer, though. Having handled so many cases, Mark knows that a good rape defense attorney provides so much more than transaction legal services—as important as they are. Mark has a deep sense of commitment to all of his clients. This means he’ll stand by you with unwavering compassion and dedication during your entire journey as you make your way through the legal process.
Date rape refers to a sexual assault that occurs between people who know each other. More often than not, these people are dating. This isn’t necessarily always the case, however. As the name suggests, date rape typically occurs when the two are on a date or doing something similar together, like enjoying a party. The key is that the victim feels safe enough to let their guard down, only for it to be violated in the worst possible way. Betrayed, sexual assault victims of this magnitude deserve to have their wrongdoers be served justice.
Campus sexual assault is broader, encompassing any form of sexual assault that occurs on a college campus or involves students in some way. These cases can be especially complicated since they often involve criminal proceedings and disciplinary actions from the educational institution. Campuses can sometimes be somewhat reluctant to take action against the student who did wrong. In these situations, it’s all the more vital to seek out a knowledgeable and compassionate campus sexual assault lawyer to ensure your case is handled properly.
If you decide to exercise legal recourse for the crime you’ve been a victim of—and you most certainly should—you’ll need guidance, especially if you’ve never had to deal with the legal system before. You’ll need representation, too. A sexual misconduct lawyer will provide you with both, dramatically increasing your chances of seeing the result you deserve compared to handling your case on your own.
Mark Satawa can help you in several key ways, including:
Mark will represent you in any and all proceedings you have, ensuring your rights are protected throughout the entire legal process. He’ll work with law enforcement and prosecutors to get to the bottom of what happened and build the strongest case for you he can. If necessary, he’ll take your case to trial in a court of law.
If the crime you were a victim of took place at a college campus, Mark will help you navigate the confusing and stressful disciplinary process that will follow. He will make your voice heard and ensure the institution takes the necessary action in light of your suffering.
Sexual assault cases aren’t merely legal cases; they are emotional battles you need to walk through. Mark will support you beyond the courtroom, providing you with compassionate guidance every step of the way. He’ll also help you find additional resources like counseling and support groups.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, emotional distress, and other damages. Mark will fight to ensure you receive the maximum amount of compensation you deserve.
