Seeking Justice For Sexual Assault And Domestic Violence Survivors

Last updated on May 4, 2026

Those who experience sexual assault in intimate partnerships or sexual assault in marriage are not alone. I understand your pain and fear.

At Kircher Law, LLC, I provide compassionate support for survivors throughout Ohio, including Cincinnati. I can help you reclaim your voice and pursue relief through every available channel.

What Is Covered Under Ohio Law?

Ohio recognizes that nonconsensual sexual contact and intimate partner violence occur within marriages and relationships. Survivors deserve protection, dignity and justice, regardless of the relationship to the perpetrator.

Sexual Assault In Marriage And Intimate Partnerships

Marital rape is illegal in Ohio. The law does not excuse sexual assault in marriage or intimate partnerships because of a legal or romantic bond. As an experienced lawyer, I can explain your rights and help you file a criminal or civil lawsuit.

Sexual Battery As Domestic Violence

Sexual battery is a crime and often part of broader patterns of domestic abuse. Survivors may face threats, manipulation or abuse of power. I offer trauma-informed legal support to hold perpetrators accountable and seek compensation.

Revenge Porn

Ohio’s revenge porn law protects individuals from the unauthorized sharing of intimate images. If someone has violated your consent and privacy, I can help you take steps to stop the abuse and seek damages.

Pimping And Prostitution

Survivors of human trafficking and forced prostitution deserve justice. Ohio provides avenues for protection and restitution. I advocate for survivors who’ve faced exploitation, helping them rebuild with dignity.
