Survivors in the Diocese of Rochester Must Bring a Claim by August 13, 2020

My Name is Stacey Benson. I’m an attorney and advocate at Jeff Anderson & Associates. I have an important message for survivors of child sexual abuse in the Diocese of Rochester. The deadline to come forward and bring a claim in the Diocese of Rochester’s bankruptcy case is August 13, 2020. You may have heard recently that Governor Cuomo extended the New York Child Victims Act by one year. This allows survivors of child sexual abuse in New York to take legal action until August of 2021. However, it’s important to understand that survivors in the Diocese of Rochester must bring a claim by August 13th, 2020. If you are contemplating coming forward, now is the time. Contact us confidentially today.
