Not such a bad influence :wink:

I thought maybe someone ought to note that the contact info for the law office in the above [page three] post is now out dated.

If anyone wants the current info, write or call me and I can give you the new numbers.

What is statute of limitations for WWASPS kids?

There are kids who were in Paradise Cove when it was relatively new ... 1998-2000

OK - not a legal beagle here - but I do know it varies depending on circumstances. Anyone who wonders should call the lawyers office and ask about their specific case.

What about kids who are in professions (e.g. military) who don't want their employers to know they were sent to a rehab program for drug issues as minor?

Well - why would this be a problem?
They are under no obligation to disclose they are party to a legal action are they?

Are there are kids from Morava Academy or Paradise Cove in the lawsuit?  What about the child who killed herself at SCL, are her parents suing?

Wasn't it because of the WWASPS v. PURE lawsuit that we learned which programs pay finder's fees to Sue Scheff/PURE?

Seems to me that's a good thing since one could argue that there is a serious conflict of interest in referring parents to a program that pays a fee for referrals that result in a placement.

No different than WWASPS offering tuition credits, except that it's cold, hard cash, if ya ask me.

Be nice to know how much a placement is worth to these programs, wouldn't it?

It depends on the state. For assault or child abuse, it's usually 3 - 5 years w/ conditions. Conditions might be the clock doesn't start till the kid is 18, after the person realized they were abused or others. W/ these overseas places, I would imagine it's extremely complicated. But, even if you can't take or join an action, but want to help out on principle, you might offer to send an affidavit.

On SLC

Also, Ginger are you sure about that statute?  It takes some time to understand not only that these places were abuses, but to gain calrity on how they were if it's not as blatant as physical abuse or sexual abuse...

Does 10% per kid sound right?
