The process
You answer a few questions
About two minutes. Nothing is sent until you agree on the last step and press submit.
A lawyer looks at it
A lawyer at the firm reads your answers and checks them against the current case criteria.
The firm decides and gets in touch
If the firm takes your case, you get the terms in writing to read before you sign. You can always say no.
RAINN describes a SANE as a nurse trained to care for people after sexual assault. The nurse can check for injuries and discuss care. Ask what services are available near you.
Before a visit, ask which professional you will see and what the visit can include. You can ask for a plain explanation of each proposed step. This guide does not set a treatment plan or an evidence-collection window.
RAINN says a chosen forensic exam can collect samples from your body and belongings. Ask a local provider to explain the process. An exam does not decide every fact in a civil claim.
Ask what records or samples the visit creates and who would hold them. Ask about consent and any local reporting rules. Do not handle or send graphic material simply to meet an online checklist.
Health-record access rules have exceptions. Authority to act for a minor depends on law and the type of care. Ask the provider to explain the relevant access and privacy rules.
Ask whether the records you seek are clinical records, exam documentation or another category. Discuss the scope of any authorization before signing. An adult helping a minor should not assume access to every file.
Tell the lawyer which records you know exist. A civil case can involve requests for records. Ask which files matter and how to seek them lawfully.
Tell the lawyer if no exam occurred or if you do not know where records are held. Ask about other material you already have. A missing exam should lead to a careful question, not a conclusion invented by this page.
Ask the care team which exam records you may request. Let the lawyer explain which copies matter to the claim.
Ask who would receive exam records and why. Review the release and costs before sharing more care details.
The review is free and private. Asking for it doesn’t commit you to anything.
