The promise of guidance and rehabilitation at Camp Joseph Scott was not fulfilled for some of the vulnerable youth placed in its care. Instead of safety, they encountered a culture of silence and systemic abuse that has left deep, enduring scars. If you or a loved one endured sexual assault while detained at Camp Joseph Scott in Santa Clarita, California, you need to know it was not your fault, and you deserve justice.

The path to healing is uniquely your own, but you do not have to walk it alone. Our firm can help represent survivors in their pursuit of long-denied justice and accountability for sexual abuse in California juvenile detention facilities.

We understand that the trauma of institutional sexual abuse is not a relic of the past; it echoes through lives and impacts mental health, relationships, and the very sense of self for far too many people who faced abuse. We are here to listen to your story with compassion, to believe you, and to champion your right to reclaim your power through legal recourse.

Pursuing Justice for Camp Joseph Scott Sex Abuse

We approach each Camp Joseph Scott sexual abuse lawsuit with respect, discretion, and a dedication to seeing justice served for survivors. Our investigation goes beyond the individual perpetrators to examine the institutional failures and negligent oversight that allowed such abuse to persist.

At Phillips Law Group, we seek to hold all responsible parties accountable. From abusive staff members to the administrators who may have turned a blind eye, we will go after whoever may be held liable for causing you or your loved one harm at this facility or any other youth detention center in California.

While no legal action can ever erase the pain you have endured, a successful Camp Joseph Scott sexual abuse claim can provide critical resources for your healing journey, including compensation for therapy, medical expenses, and the deep emotional distress inflicted. More importantly, it forces the system to acknowledge its failings and can help prevent future harm to others in the care of the youth correctional system in the Golden State.

I felt they were more my friends than my personal injury lawyer and that isn't something you're taught it's something you have inside. If I ever needed a lawyer again Phillips Law Group Injury Lawyers would be my only choice. I can't recommend them enough. They are professional on every level and compassionate throughout. Thank you for everything.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group. I decided to give them a call about my accident, and they were very respectful and took in my case immediately. They assigned me Tim LeDuc to represent me. From the beginning, he was very responsive and made sure to give me the proper care I deserved from this accident. Him and his team fought tooth and nail to give me the best settlement I deserved. I am so thankful, and I highly recommend Phillips Law Group to represent anyone who has been in any accident and...

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...

Just would like to share my experience with Phillips And Associates. Ever since my accident in the first of the year, it was a life changing event for me and I finally decided to go with a personal injury attorney. I contacted Phillips And Associates and they made me feel like I was an actual person instead of a lot of other firms try to go with me like a number, Phillips And Associates has reached out to me in a kind, courteous and caring way they fully understand on the circumstances of the accident So far, Phillips And Associates has been absolutely wonderful. I truly recommend going with Phillips And Associates. Thanks (RuthAnn), your the Best!!! And Thank you...
