Dedicated To Protecting Victims’ Rights

When Trusted Professionals Cause Harm

Professionals serve an essential and noble function in society. They fill a vital role in improving the lives of individuals and families. However, because their clients are often in the vulnerable circumstance of seeking help and guidance, professionals also have the unique power to exploit their position of authority for harm rather than good.

All too often, professionals violate the fiduciary or trust-based relationship that exists between them and their clients. Abuse can take many forms — sexual and financial exploitation, invasions of privacy, and violations of trust and loyalty take place in all types of fiduciary relationships.
