A new non-profit group, made up of prominent Buckhead attorneys, and other activists, is hoping to curb sex trafficking by suing the venues, and the customers that are part of the problem.

The founders of Civil Lawyers Against World Sex-Slavery, or CLAWS, noticed that there was a void.

“Nothing that was bringing, civil lawsuits aggressively against the customers, against the venues, against the boyfriends and handlers in order to try to eradicate the problem,” said David Boone, a longtime Buckhead attorney.

“There is a gap, there is a whole aspect of the courthouse that we can use for social change,” Boone said.
