Were You Sexually Abused By A Catholic Priest Of The Diocese Of Santa Rosa?

We Can Help.

If you have been sexually abused by a Catholic priest – or anyone else working in the Diocese of Santa Rosa – you may have an opportunity to seek justice and compensation due to a recent bankruptcy filing by the Diocese of Santa Rosa in California. Horowitz Law is now evaluating legal claims for anyone sexually abused by anyone associated with the Diocese of Santa Rosa. Contact us today at 954-641-2100 or use the online contact form to learn more.

In March 2023, the Diocese of Santa Rosa filed for Chapter 11 federal bankruptcy protection.  As part of its bankruptcy, the Diocese of Santa Rosa will be reviewing and paying claims for anyone sexually abused by diocesan priests and lay employees. This will likely include claims filed on behalf of anyone whose case may be beyond the statute of limitations. Strict filing deadlines will apply once they are set by the bankruptcy court, and if you fail to take action before that date, you may never be allowed to take action against the Diocese of Santa Rosa again, even if the statute of limitations changes. So please contact us today.

Through our own investigation, our team has identified 94 clergy and lay employees in the Diocese of Santa Rosa who have been publicly accused of sexually abusing minors.
