This page will look at sex abuse lawsuits involving inmates at California juvenile detention center facilities and the potential settlement value for your abuse claim.  The sad reality is that child inmates in California’s juvenile detention centers are often victims of sexual abuse and assault by staff and other inmates, and now is the time for justice and compensation.

Thanks to new laws in California, victims of sexual assault and abuse at juvenile facilities in California are now able to file civil sex abuse lawsuits against the state, counties, and other responsible public entities for failing to protect them. Our firm is currently accepting California juvenile detention center sex abuse lawsuits.  Los Angeles County has already agreed to more than $4.8 billion in major childhood sexual abuse settlements, but there is no single statewide global settlement covering every California juvenile detention claim. Claims against other counties and former state facilities remain separate.  You do not want to be left out. Call us at 800-553-8082 or contact us online.

Bard PowerPort lawsuits allege that defects in implanted port catheters can cause fractures, migration, blood clots, infections, embolisms, and other serious complications. Thousands of product liability lawsuits are now pending against Bard and its parent company, Becton Dickinson, in a federal multidistrict litigation in Arizona.  After a long slog, these cases are now moving forward.

The first bellwether trial ended with a partial defense verdict and a deadlocked jury on the central design defect claim. The most recent trial, Divelbliss v. C.R. Bard, led to a $40 million verdict. It involved an alleged fracture of a silicone Groshong catheter. Five bellwether trials are now expected to run through February 2027.  So far, we are 1-1, with the third trial now getting underway. Our lawyers remain bullish on well-documented fracture, migration, and embolization cases.

This page provides the latest Bard PowerPort lawsuit updates, projected settlement amounts, and information about who may qualify to file a claim.

This page looks at civil lawsuits for victims of sexual abuse at San Diego juvenile detention centers, the growing number of claims against the county, and what our lawyers expect to see in settlement compensation.

San Diego juvenile halls are at the center of a troubling investigation into allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct against minors who were detained at these facilities. Survivors have come forward with reports of sexual exploitation, misconduct by staff members, and a pervasive culture of sexual abuse that was allegedly ignored or covered up by those in power. These allegations are part of a larger pattern of sexual abuse within the juvenile justice system, where vulnerable youth are too often subjected to harm by the very individuals entrusted with their care.

More than 300 former wards have now brought childhood sexual abuse claims against San Diego County involving juvenile detention centers, temporary shelters, and foster care placements. The county is defending these lawsuits. There has been no announced global settlement.
