When a child goes to school, he or she should feel safe and protected from torment and anxiety. In fact, it is often assumed that they will be left alone and free from any type of ridicule or harassment while under the care of their school and its staff. Bullying and peer abuse are no longer viewed or accepted as an inevitability or rite of passage. We now know that the effects of sexual harassment, verbal assault, physical abuse, and emotional bullying can harm children, driving many students to injure themselves, and sometimes even attempt suicide. The emotional and psychological trauma that can be induced due to bullying, peer abuse, and teasing can last many years and follow the child into adulthood.
At The Cifarelli Law Firm, our child abuse attorneys work to hold individuals, including students, teachers, administrators, schools, and school districts accountable for bullying and mistreatment from which your child should be protected. We represent clients throughout Southern California and across the United States from our offices in Irvine, California.

“Tom and his team at the Cifarelli Law Firm are upstanding, professional people who have treated my case with the utmost dignity and care. The case has been long and involved, but Tom has worked tirelessly throughout. Whenever I’ve spoken to him on the phone, he has been kind, honest, understanding of the harm that I experienced, and happy to explain and walk me through things. The people at the Cifarelli office are also clear, prompt, easy to get in touch with, and organized.
Tom’s thoughtfulness, as well as his commitment to getting a resolution for my case, has made the unpleasant process of going through a lawsuit much more bearable. He is highly experienced and it shows in his care for his clients and his success with difficult and delicate cases. I obviously would not wish the circumstances that led to my case on anyone else, but I would wholeheartedly recommend the Cifarelli Law Firm to anyone else in my position.” – A.E.
