A growing number of families are suing Roblox after learning their children were groomed, exploited, or exposed to sexually explicit content through the platform. Roblox spent years branding itself as a safe, kid-focused place to create and play. These lawsuits say that the promise did not match reality, and too many children have been exploited as a result.

Several high-profile cases, including federal lawsuits filed around the country and consumer class action claims over marketing and monetization practices, allege that Roblox failed to protect minors from foreseeable risks. In federal court, most of the child exploitation and grooming cases are now coordinated in the Roblox MDL in the Northern District of California, Case No. 25-md-03166-RS, before Chief Judge Richard Seeborg.

The core allegations are straightforward. Families claim Roblox allowed predators and explicit content to circulate, failed to enforce meaningful safety barriers, and profited from design choices that kept kids engaged while leaving them vulnerable. Many complaints describe the same pattern: predators initiate contact through in-game chat or messaging, build trust, and then push children to move conversations to third-party apps like Discord or Snapchat, where monitoring is weaker, and the harm escalates.

Uber is facing one of the largest waves of passenger sexual assault lawsuits in U.S. history. Survivors across the country allege that Uber drivers sexually assaulted them and that the company is legally responsible because it failed to screen drivers properly, ignored prior complaints, and did not implement basic safety measures.

These claims are now consolidated in In re: Uber Technologies Inc., Passenger Sexual Assault Litigation, MDL No. 3084, in the Northern District of California. The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation centralized these lawsuits because they share common factual questions about Uber’s knowledge of sexual assault reports, driver screening, driver training, and safety measures.  This is not technically a class action lawsuit. It is an MDL where the cases are consolidated for discovery, but each victim maintains her own claim.

As of June 2026, more than 3,000 plaintiffs have joined the federal MDL, with hundreds more cases still pending in the California coordinated proceeding. The first MDL trial began in January 2026, and the jury returned an $8.5 million verdict in early February. Our lawyers believe these are exceptionally strong cases. The evidence points to a pattern: repeated warnings about dangerous drivers, no action from Uber, and preventable assaults that followed.
