Civil Litigation on Behalf of Victims of Human Trafficking Report Available

Friday, July 15, 2005 4:40 PM

The Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles recently published a legal manual entitled, “Civil Litigation on Behalf of Victims of Human Trafficking,” geared towards legal advocates wanting to seek civil relief for trafficked persons. The manual includes sample pleadings and details the procedure for filing a civil trafficking claim. The authors, Kathleen Kim of the Lawyer’s Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area and Daniel Werner of the Worker’s Rights Law Center of New York, intend to provide legislative updates and cases addressing human trafficking in civil court.
