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.

Dupixent lawsuits are now moving forward in federal court for patients who allege the drug caused, accelerated, or unmasked cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and related T-cell lymphomas.

On June 4, 2026, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation centralized the federal Dupixent cases in MDL No. 3180, In re: Dupixent (Dupilumab) Products Liability Litigation, in the District of New Jersey before Judge Zahid N. Quraishi.

Dupixent, also known as dupilumab, is a biologic medication used to treat atopic dermatitis, asthma, COPD, and a host of other inflammatory conditions. For many patients, Dupixent has provided real relief where other treatments failed. But for some patients, the story has been very different and not one they could have expected.

Victims of sexual abuse or assault, either as a child or an adult, have the right to bring a civil lawsuit against both their abuser and any school, company, or organization that might be liable for the abuse.

For decades, schools, churches, and treatment centers have used a playbook to silence victims, destroying records, intimidating survivors, and using legal loopholes to dodge responsibility. But courts are catching up, and new laws in New York are forcing these institutions to pay for the harm they caused.

In this post, we will provide a brief overview of sexual abuse lawsuits in New York. We will explain the applicable statute of limitations for sex abuse civil cases in New York and how settlement amounts are calculated in these cases.

Our lawyers are investigating Ozempic lawsuits for patients with NAION, gastroparesis, or gastrointestinal conditions, including bowel obstruction or cyclic vomiting syndrome.

Ozempic is the popular brand name for semaglutide, a prescription drug approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. As we all know, Ozempic is also commonly used as a weight management drug. Recent scientific studies have shown that taking Ozempic, particularly at higher doses, can cause gastroparesis.

Our lawyers are reviewing hair relaxer cancer lawsuits on behalf of women throughout the United States. These claims involve women who used chemical hair relaxers or hair straighteners for years and were later diagnosed with uterine cancer, including endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, or serious uterine fibroids that led to a hysterectomy.

The federal hair relaxer litigation now includes nearly 12,000 plaintiffs. The cases are moving through expert discovery and bellwether preparation in the Northern District of Illinois. No hair relaxer settlement has been announced, and no plaintiff has received a settlement payout through the federal MDL. The latest hair relaxer lawsuit update is that Judge Mary Rowland has lifted a discovery stay for a group of defendants after concluding that settlement discussions had not produced enough progress to justify keeping those cases frozen.

The strongest cases generally involve frequent, long-term use followed by uterine or ovarian cancer, a clear product history, and substantial treatment or reproductive injury.

Our lawyers are handling baby powder lawsuits in all 50 states in 2026. The talcum powder lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson have been ongoing for years. The lawsuits allege that prolonged use of talcum powder (or “talc”), the active ingredient in products such as Baby Powder and Shower to Shower, can cause ovarian cancer in some women.

This page provides an update on J&J talc powder litigation and discusses the settlement amounts in ovarian cancer lawsuits for victims.

Our lawyers are handling Paragard IUD lawsuits for women throughout the United States. These cases allege that the copper IUD can fracture during removal, leaving one or both plastic arms inside the uterus and sometimes forcing the patient to undergo another procedure or surgery.

The federal litigation now includes more than 4,000 filed cases. The first bellwether trial ended in a defense verdict in February 2026. That was a real loss for plaintiffs, and it changed the settlement calculus maybe a bit. But it is just one case, and we can turn it around with a win in September 2026 at the next trial.

So there is no Paragard settlement deal as of September 2026. Our lawyers still believe these claims will eventually be resolved through a negotiated settlement, but the first defense verdict makes it harder to predict when that could happen or what defendants will be willing to pay. We discuss our estimated Paragard settlement values below.

A Los Angeles school sexual abuse case usually begins with the person who committed the abuse. The next step is figuring out what the adults in charge knew (or should have known).

Most predators in a school setting do much of their legwork in plain sight. A teacher or coach who texts students privately, drives them places, often that are not home, or has one-on-one meetings behind a closed door. One principal may have known about a boundary violation while the district office held a separate complaint from another campus.

Sometimes this is innocent. Teachers do take a strong interest in their students and can show signs of being a predator when they are not. So what is a school to do? Pay attention. See what is there to be seen and follow up on it. What our lawyers see way too often in these cases is, “That’s Joe, he is just like that,” without any further review and without taking signs of predator behavior to higher authority.
