Milwaukee Clergy Abuse Lawyer

Wisconsin Priest Abuse Attorneys Pursuing Healing and Justice for Victims

Paul Scoptur of Aiken & Scoptur, S.C., has been working closely with Jeff Anderson of Jeff Anderson & Associates to help dozens of survivors who have been sexually abused by clergy of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. Many of these survivors were abused by Father Murphy (at St. John's School for the Deaf in St. Francis, Wisconsin) and Father Widera (at Saint Mary's in Port Washington and St. Andrew Parish in Delavan). However, we have also discovered there were other clergy who were abusing children.

St. Francis and Delavan Clergy Abuse Attorneys

Our law firm is pursuing healing and justice on behalf of victims of molestation in church environments, even in cases of abuse that occurred many years ago.

Because the Archdiocese of Milwaukee has declared bankruptcy, anyone who was sexually abused by a priest or employee of the archdiocese may now be able to bring a claim — even if in the past he or she was told they could not. However, because there will be a limited amount of time during which the bankruptcy court will allow you to bring a claim, if you don't act now you may be forever prohibited from doing so.

If you are a victim of Milwaukee clergy abuse, Paul Scoptur and Jeff Anderson would like to help you on your journey to seek justice for the abuse that you endured. We are currently handling cases for dozens of individuals who were sexually abused by clergy in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. Be assured that your privacy will be respected and your identity can remain confidential, but you must act now.
