Los Angeles, CA personal injury lawyer Carly Sanchez discusses how Booth Law goes above and beyond in its representation of abuse survivors. She explains that Booth Law provides comprehensive representation for survivors of abuse, going beyond just addressing their legal needs by also taking into consideration their everyday lives. Survivors of abuse often suffer from psychological symptoms such as PTSD, anxiety, and depression, and may not have access to necessary services. At Booth Law, we not only attend court on their behalf but also answer phone calls at any hour, and help them access emergency psychiatric appointments and medications. For the children we represent, especially dependent minors and foster children, we recognize that they often have no consistent adult figure in their lives to help them navigate their circumstances, on top of dealing with the abuse they’ve suffered. Some of the children we represent have been shuffled through multiple foster homes during our representation, making it difficult for them to grow up, be teenagers, or preteens. To help them learn how to be functioning adults and manage the trauma they’ve experienced, we provide support such as attending gynecological appointments with teenage girls who have been sexually abused, holding their hands during exams, helping them with their daily needs, like purchasing furniture and opening bank accounts, and even assisting them in getting their driver’s licenses. At Booth Law, we understand that providing a holistic approach to our clients is essential to their healing process.
