Recent reports and investigations have shown that detainees at Maryland juvenile detention centers (the Hickey School, Cheltenham,  and Waxter, in particular) were often subjected to sexual abuse and assault by staff and other inmates.

Thanks to a new law in Maryland, victims of child sexual abuse at Maryland juvenile detention schools can now bring civil lawsuits against the state and get financial compensation. This page will look at sex abuse lawsuits against juvenile facilities in Maryland.

Our Maryland sex abuse lawyers are helping victims of juvenile detention center sex abuse get the compensation they deserve.

Were you or a loved one diagnosed with Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) after taking Dupixent (dupilumab)? Our firm is reviewing potential lawsuits for patients who developed lymphoma and other serious side effects linked to this widely prescribed biologic. These cases allege that Dupixent can trigger or accelerate rare blood cancers, including CTCL, and that the drug manufacturers failed to provide adequate warnings about those risks.

Over the last several years, dermatologists and immunologists have reported a pattern that should give any responsible manufacturer pause.  A subset of patients started Dupixent for what everyone thought was routine atopic dermatitis, only to be diagnosed with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

What follows is a clear-eyed examination of the medical literature, the regulatory record, and the litigation posture, written for victims and lawyers who seek analysis (rather than a law firm telling you how great they are). So our goal here is to explain how our lawyers evaluate these cases, where the science is moving, which defenses you can expect, and what it will take to prove causation and damages in a courtroom. We also talk about potential Deupxient settlement amounts if this litigation is as successful as we predict.

This page provides Camp Lejeune lawsuit updates. Our lawyers are still working to give the latest update on the litigation, even though we are no longer taking new cases. Why? Because there is little information out there, and we are staying with victims, including those we do not represent, until the end.

We have also recently reopened the comments below to answer any questions you may have or simply give you a chance to share your thoughts.

What was once a novelty or culinary product has become a common recreational inhalant, especially among young people. The health consequences of repeated use are now well-documented: neurological injuries, psychiatric damage, spinal cord dysfunction, and in some tragic cases, death.

Litigation is emerging in multiple states as more people come forward, alleging that manufacturers, distributors, and retailers failed to provide sufficient warnings, marketed products in ways that promoted abuse, and ignored clear patterns of harm. These cases span from wrongful death and permanent disability to class actions based on deceptive labeling and distribution practices. There is also a class action lawsuit and the possibility of an MDL.

Video game addiction lawsuits are gaining momentum as families and individuals come forward to seek accountability from gaming companies for the harm caused by gaming addiction. These cases focus on holding video game manufacturers accountable for exploiting vulnerable players, particularly minors and young adults, through intentionally addictive game designs. Gaming addiction has caused significant harm, including mental health struggles, social isolation, and financial strain, as companies prioritize profit over user safety.

Our attorneys examine the rise of video game addiction lawsuits and delve into key aspects such as the alleged failure to warn and the intentional design defects that make games like Fortnite, Roblox, Minecraft, and Call of Duty so addictive.

While these lawsuits are still in their early stages, we focus on the heart of these cases: the significant injuries sustained by individuals and the potential settlement payouts, as financial compensation is central to resolving these civil claims. Below, we also explore updates on specific lawsuits, recent litigation trends, and eligibility criteria for filing a video game addiction lawsuit. We also look at the potential settlement value of these lawsuits if they play out as our lawyers expect.
