About the Women’s Rights Group
As one of the leading women’s rights groups in California, the Women’s Rights Group works tirelessly to provide support and empowerment to victims of sex trafficking. Through its various outreach and advocacy initiatives, this non-government organization aims to help survivors obtain the compensation and justice they deserve for the suffering that they have endured.
One important piece of legislation that is critical to this process is the Trafficking Victim Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA). This law provides a legal framework that supports victims in bringing civil claims against third-party institutions that have either directly or indirectly allowed their exploitation and human trafficking to continue.
The TVPRA is especially crucial given that many of these institutions are high-profile and legitimate businesses. These organizations may be aware of their legal obligations toward victims under the law, but too often choose to ignore or even actively benefit from the continued trafficking and abuse taking place within their midst.
By providing these victims with a strong foundation to hold these institutions accountable, the TVPRA enables survivors to reclaim their dignity and begin the journey toward healing and recovery. Ultimately, it is our hope that through organizations like Women’s Rights Group, more survivors will get the assistance they need and ultimately achieve justice for all that they have endured.

Sex Trafficking In Hotels, Motels, & Commercial Establishments
If you were sexually trafficked in a hotel, motel, or commercial establishment, you may be able to bring a claim against the business for their failure to take action or prevent trafficking from happening on their premises.
Negligent Security
Not all sex trafficking victims are abducted or held against their will — many are lured into the trade through false promises of a better life or employment opportunities. In these cases, the business may be held liable for negligent security if they did not take proper precautions to ensure that their premises were safe and free from trafficking activity.
Nuisance Claims
Another avenue for relief is filing a nuisance claim against businesses that knowingly allow sex trafficking to take place on their premises. This type of claim alleges that the business is creating an unsafe and dangerous environment for both employees and customers, and can help survivors obtain punitive damages in addition to any compensation for their injuries.
If you have been the victim of sex trafficking, it is important to know that you have legal options available to you. At Women’s Rights Group, our experienced team of attorneys can help you understand your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve.
Your Rights As A Victim of Sex Trafficking
Under the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act, victims of sex trafficking have certain rights that must be respected by U.S. law enforcement, service providers, and other officials. These rights include:
- The right to be treated with dignity and respect
- The right to be free from violence, threats of violence, coercion, and discrimination
- The right to be informed of your rights in a language that you understand
- The right to access government-funded or provided services and benefits (including medical care, mental health services, housing assistance, and legal representation)
- The right to have your privacy protected throughout the criminal justice process
It is important to note that these rights apply regardless of your immigration status and that you can file a civil claim against any business or institution that violated your rights under the TVPRA. If you have been the victim of sex trafficking, do not hesitate to contact the Women’s Rights Group for help.
Recoverable Damages vs. Commercial
Establishments That Condone Sex Trafficking
When a victim of sex trafficking files a civil claim against a business or other third party, they may be able to recover a number of different types of damages. These can include:
- Physical injuries
- Emotional distress
- Lost wages and earnings
- Loss of future earnings and earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Punitive damages
If you are in this unfortunate situation, know that help and protection are available. The first step is to contact the Women’s Rights Group — we can help you understand your legal options and what type of compensation may be available in your case.
Claims of this nature may be worth millions of dollars. While this will in no way erase the trauma of what you have been through, it can help you get your life back on track and hold those responsible for their actions.
