Is there also a civil lawsuit for sexual molestation?

I understand that you are inquiring about whether a civil lawsuit for sexual molestation can proceed.

In addition to criminal punishment, a perpetrator of sexual molestation bears civil liability for damages arising from the sexual molestation.

Accordingly, if you can prove the perpetrator's act and the damage that occurred, you can claim damages through a civil lawsuit for sexual molestation.

To receive compensation, you must first be able to prove the mental and physical harm suffered from the sexual molestation.

To prove mental harm, items such as psychiatric treatment records, counseling records, and an expert's diagnosis may be necessary.

If physical harm resulted from the sexual molestation, medical records or treatment records can be used as evidence.

In addition, you must clearly organize and prove the relationship with the perpetrator and the circumstances of the incident.

This is because you must be able to prove the perpetrator's liability for compensation.

As in your case, where the perpetrator has already been criminally punished, a civil lawsuit for sexual molestation can proceed relatively easily.

However, since proving the resulting mental harm is a very complex process, it is advisable to proceed with the help of an attorney specializing in civil matters.

This is because an attorney can help gather the evidence needed for the litigation and lead it effectively.
