Schools Are Supposed to Protect Your Child. When They Don’t, There Must Be Accountability.

Moser Law PLLC represents survivors of school-based sexual misconduct, grooming, and institutional cover-up in Jacksonville, Duval County, and across Northeast Florida.

Institutional abuse isn't just about one bad teacher.

When a teacher, coach, or staff member abuses a student, schools don’t always call the police. They misclassify incidents. They code reports as “0 Victims.” They quietly transfer the employee or let them resign, and the next school never knows.

Duval County Public Schools has a documented history of underreporting criminal incidents to law enforcement. That history is public record. And it creates liability.

Moser Law PLLC doesn’t stop at the individual abuser. I pursue the institution that allowed it to happen, and the administrators who looked the other way.

Your child was failed twice….Once by the abuser, and once by the school that should have stopped it.

I bring claims under:

  • Title IX: federal law requiring schools to respond to and prevent sexual harassment and abuse

  • 42 U.S.C. § 1983: civil rights violations by school officials who knew and did nothing

  • Florida negligence law: schools have a legal duty to supervise staff and protect students

  • Florida § 1006.061: mandatory reporting requirements school employees violated

I handle these cases on contingency. You pay nothing unless money is recovered for you.

Does it cost anything to find out if I have a case? No. Your initial consultation is free. Christina reviews every inquiry personally.

We already reported it to the school and nothing happened. Can we still sue? Yes. And that non-response may be part of your case. A school's failure to act after notice is a core element of deliberate indifference under Title IX.

Is there a time limit? Yes. Florida's statute of limitations can bar claims if you wait too long. There is no Florida lookback window for adult survivors of childhood abuse. If you're unsure whether your time has passed, call now. Don't assume it's too late without asking.

What if the school or district denies everything? They almost always do. I build cases through public records requests, incident reports, personnel files, and law enforcement records, not just what the school is willing to admit.

What if the abuser was never criminally charged? A civil case has a lower burden of proof than a criminal case. You do not need a criminal conviction to pursue a civil claim.

Can we remain anonymous? In many circumstances yes. Federal courts allow plaintiffs in sensitive cases to proceed under a pseudonym. I evaluate this case by case.
