We generally are able to give you preliminary advice within 48 hours and we assist with claims in any State or Territory in Australia.
We have represented for over 2,500 survivors of sexual abuse over the past 15 years, many of whom were at or under the care of a school. We have acted for people what attended the following schools:
and many other private and State Schools throughout Australia.
We have a proud history of fighting for those people and getting them justice.
We understand sexual abuse claims and so we know how to get you justice. Justice looks difference to most people and we listen to what justice means to you.
We focus on your story and give you a voice on something that may have happened a long time ago. There is often power and healing in being heard and in getting justice for what happened to you as a child.
Its often not all about the money but we pride ourselves on getting the institution to pay for the harm they caused you.
We believe that survivors of child sexual abuse should not be denied access to justice because of their financial situation. That is why Moody Law offers a No-Win-No-Fee* service.
We get results for you. We have acted for many hundreds of survivors of sexual abuse since 2000 and many thousands of survivors of violence.
Sexual abuse claims are private and confidential unless you want publicity. Usually, there is no need to include your family members or others in your life.
Sadly, some particular schools have a poor history of looking after children. Below are some of the main schools identified by the Royal Commission recently where sexual abuse of children was found.

“I would like to express my thanks to you and the rest of the Artemis team for not giving up on my case. No matter the outcome I cannot tell you how much it has meant to me for someone to not only believe me but to also fight for me. It has never occurred to me that my case was very important or significant. ”
“For me, I walk away from this experience with a genuine sense of optimism and resilience. I now have hope and a purpose that I have not ever felt before in my lifetime. Whilst therapy and professional assistance is assisting greatly, it is because of your determination to see justice for me and that fact that I felt that I had your support “in my corner”, enabled me to have the courage to pursue this case to its end. ”
