I'm so sorry this happened to your daughter.
Depending on the specific circumstances, you may be able to sue both the perpetrator and the employer for damages. Practically speaking, a lawyer would probably file a lawsuit against the perpetrator and attempt to negotiate a settlement with the employer's insurance company.
I would recommend meeting with a personal injury attorney in your area. Most initial consultations are free. You can find an attorney using our free online directory. If you think you may qualify for free legal help, you can contact the State Bar of Texas Lawyer Referral Information Service.
Finally, the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network (RAINN) is the nation's largest anti-sexual assault organization. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline and carries out programs to prevent sexual assault, help victims, and ensure that rapists are brought to justice. Call them toll-free at (800) 656-HOPE (4673).
