Speaking Up to Create Change: Inside Sexual Abuse Litigation with Cindy Morgan & Michael Saile | The Injury Pros Podcast
Episode 34 | About This Episode
In this episode of the Injury Pros Podcast, host Michael Saile of Cordisco & Saile Injury Law Firm sits down with Cindy Morgan, co-founder of Medina Morgan — a boutique catastrophic personal injury firm based in Center City Philadelphia. Cindy brings a unique background to civil litigation: a Temple Law graduate who went straight from insurance defense work to the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office before transitioning to plaintiff-side civil litigation specializing in institutional sexual abuse cases.
Cindy and Mike dig into what it really means to hold institutions — schools, churches, sports organizations, hospitals — legally accountable when they fail to protect survivors of sexual abuse. Cindy explains the critical difference between criminal prosecution (which targets the individual offender) and civil litigation (which targets the institution that enabled or ignored the abuse). She walks through how her firm investigates cases, builds notice evidence, uses expert witnesses, and balances aggressive litigation with protecting clients from further trauma.
The conversation also covers Pennsylvania’s long-awaited “look back window” legislation — a proposed law that would give adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse a two-year window to file claims regardless of when the abuse occurred, similar to laws already passed in New York, New Jersey, and Maryland. Cindy urges survivors not to wait, as a free consultation can determine whether a claim already exists under current law.
Whether you’re a survivor, a concerned parent, or just someone who wants to understand how the civil justice system creates real change, this episode is a must-watch.
