Victim of sexual abuse or assault, either as a child or an adult, have the right to bring a civil lawsuit against both your 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.

Jury Verdict Research conducted a study of Alabama jury trials and found that the average personal injury verdict was $309,062.

As always, the high verdicts stretch the average, including a $12,000,000 verdict. The median compensatory award for personal injury trials in Alabama is $25,771. Plaintiff’s win – winning is defined as recovering some money damages – 47 percent of cases that go to trial in Alabama.

Putting those numbers in context, the national median is $40,000, and the nationwide plaintiff recovery probability is 48 percent.

This page examines Suboxone, its associated dental complications, and the subsequent Suboxone tooth decay lawsuits that occurred in 2025. 

What is the Suboxone lawsuit about? The lawsuit is about what Suboxone does to your teeth. The core of every Suboxone lawsuit is that the defendants knew of the risk of severe tooth decay and other dental injuries. They did not convey that risk to prescribing doctors or patients because they chose profits over people.

Unfortunately, our lawyers are no longer taking on new Suboxone cases in 2026.

Dupixent (dupilumab) is a biologic medication used to treat atopic dermatitis, asthma, and other inflammatory conditions. It works by targeting specific immune pathways involved in allergic inflammation. For many patients with moderate to severe eczema, Dupixent has provided relief where topical medications failed. As a result, it has become one of the most widely prescribed biologic drugs for skin and respiratory conditions.

But for a growing number of patients, the experience with Dupixent has been very different. Over the past several years, doctors and researchers have reported cases in which patients treated with Dupixent were later diagnosed with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that primarily affects the skin. These reports have led to increasing scrutiny of whether Dupixent can worsen, accelerate, or mask CTCL in certain patients.

Lawyers across the country are now reviewing Dupixent lawsuits on behalf of patients who developed CTCL, mycosis fungoides, or Sézary syndrome after receiving Dupixent injections.

The Cartiva toe implant is a synthetic cartilage device used to treat arthritis in the big toe. New evidence suggests that these implants are defectively designed and prone to failures that can result in pain, further surgery, and other injuries. Cartiva toe implant lawsuits are now being filed by individuals who experienced a premature failure of their implant.

We hoped to see Cartiva settlement payouts by 2025 as part of a global settlement. That has not happened. Unfortunately, this litigation is dragging on. But these lawsuits could reach a settlement at any time. You want to submit a case before that happens. So, if you have a claim, call us or another lawyer sooner rather than later.

Not many of these lawsuits have been filed.   But there are many more cases out there, and that is likely to change if there is no settlement soon. If you have a potential claim, call us today at 800-553-8082 or get a free consultation online.

This page provides the most recent news and updates on the AFFF firefighting foam class action lawsuit and our prediction of the settlement amounts that plaintiffs with AFFF cancer lawsuits can expect to receive. You will not get more updated news on the AFFF litigation anywhere else.

Our AFFF firefighting foam lawyers believe the defendants will settle most of these lawsuits this year (2026) before a single trial.  Why? They will follow the same pattern as the water contamination lawsuits they settled for billions of dollars.  In those cases, we saw the defendants’ apparent preference for settlement over the uncertainties of a trial.  This makes sense; the AFFF lawsuits are strong cases.
