What is the Standard of Proof in a Sexual Abuse Civil Claim? | Valent Legal

Many survivors of sexual abuse hesitate to come forward, fearing they won’t be believed. Unlike criminal cases, where abuse must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, civil cases have a much lower standard of proof. In a civil lawsuit, you only need to prove that the abuse occurred on a balance of probabilities—meaning it’s more likely than not that you’re telling the truth. This lower standard makes civil claims a more accessible path to justice for many survivors. At Valent Legal, we’ve helped countless survivors of sexual abuse get the compensation they deserve for the harm they’ve suffered. If you have questions about your potential claim, we’re here to listen and support you—at no cost to you. Get in touch with us: https://valentlegal.ca/contact-us/?ut...
