Doctors sometimes take advantage of patients for their own sexual gratification. If you have been the victim of sexual abuse, assault or misconduct committed by a doctor or healthcare professional, you have the right to file civil lawsuit against that doctor and the hospital or healthcare company that they work for. Bringing a civil lawsuit is separate from pressing criminal charges and successful plaintiffs can get significant financial compensation.

A lawsuit for sexual abuse or assault can be filed against the doctor who committed the act, as well as the hospital or institution that employs them. Filing a civil claim is a separate legal procedure from bringing criminal charges. Whereas a criminal case can lead to prison for the offender, only through a civil case can a survivor exact compensation for the traumatic harm that was done to them.

Virginia Sex Abuse Lawsuit Updates

Our lawyers are handling Similac and Enfamil infant formula lawsuits for families whose premature babies suffered or died from necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after taking one of these formulas.  Our law firm is reviewing NEC lawsuits in all 50 states.

Medical research links cow milk-based infant formulas such as Similac and Enfamil to a dangerous neonatal medical condition known as necrotizing enterocolitis.  These newborn NEC formula lawsuits make a lot of allegations.  But at their core, they allege that the makers of these formulas knew of the risk of NEC and did nothing to warn families and give them a choice.

If your premature baby was diagnosed with NEC after being given Similac or Enfamil formula, you may be able to participate in a class action lawsuit against the formula companies and receive financial compensation for the harm that was done to your child.

The Polinsky Children’s Center, a temporary shelter for children in San Diego County, is now at the center of over 100 lawsuits alleging decades of sexual abuse. The facility, which was meant to provide a safe haven for children removed from their homes due to neglect or abuse, is now accused of failing to protect them from horrific mistreatment within its own walls.

Survivors who lived at the facility between 1994 and 2020 have come forward with allegations that staff members, older residents, and others repeatedly sexually abused them while they were in custody. The lawsuits describe a range of abuse, from molestation and groping to violent sexual assault. Many survivors say that their reports were ignored or dismissed by those in charge, and some claim they were threatened with further abuse if they spoke up.

The lawsuits argue that the County of San Diego, which operates the facility, failed in its responsibility to protect the children in its care. Allegations include the failure to conduct thorough background checks on employees, a lack of supervision that allowed abuse to go unchecked, and a culture of silence that discouraged victims from coming forward. In some cases, survivors claim that known abusers continued working at the facility even after concerns were raised about their behavior.
