A Woman Accused Priest Of Abuse. A woman accused priest of abuse at a Roman Catholic high school three decades ago has won a $220,000 settlement from the Archdiocese of Miami.

The woman has been identified only as “Jane Doe” in court papers. She claimed the Rev. Charles Casetta sexually assaulted her 10 times when she was a student at Cardinal Newman High School in the early 1970s. The school was under the control of Miami’s archdiocese at that time.

I had a friend who recommended Parker Waichman and I have to say I am so thankful that he suggested them. I found them to be very professional. Whenever I had an issue, I always spoke to Tina Morace. She was always prompt in returning my calls, and never to busy to answer any of my questions. She played an integral part in making the whole process stress free for me. Tina and the firm never kept me in the dark on what was going on. I will definitely use them again, and I highly recommend them.
