A Los Angeles school sexual abuse case begins with the person who committed the abuse. We quickly jump to the next step of figuring out what the adults in charge knew (or should have known).

Why? To get compensation in a school sex abuse lawsuit, you need to find a defendant who can pay compensation to the victim. The perpetrator, particularly in a school setting, is unlikely to have the assets to fund a settlement or verdict. So we look at the school’s negligence to find compensation.

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 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.

Our lawyers stopped accepting new Tylenol autism and ADHD cases after Judge Denise Cote excluded the plaintiffs’ causation experts, a ruling that led to the dismissal of the federal lawsuits.

There is now real reason for renewed optimism. In July 2026, the Second Circuit overturned the judgments resulting from Judge Cote’s expert testimony rulings. The defendants then asked the appeals court to reconsider, and, as we discuss below, that request has now been denied.

But our firm has not yet resumed accepting new Tylenol autism or ADHD claims. The appeals court did not decide that Tylenol causes autism or ADHD, and important questions about the expert evidence still have to be addressed on remand. We will continue following the litigation and reassess our position as the next steps become clearer.

Between 2013 and 2024, contaminated Olympus duodenoscopes infected hundreds of patients at hospitals across the United States. At least 35 people died from these medical scopes.

What happened?  These awful infections were caused by dangerous, drug-resistant bacteria that were extremely difficult to treat.

So you had patients who went to the hospital, often getting diagnostic or therapeutic procedures that they did not think would be a big deal, only to come out with infections that damaged organs, required months of intensive care, or, tragically, proved fatal.

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.

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.

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.

If you were sexually abused at a residential treatment facility in Illinois, you may have a civil claim against the people and organizations that failed to protect you. This page covers residential treatment centers, psychiatric hospitals, and youth behavioral health programs, including placements arranged by families and state agencies.

Recent reports and our investigations make clear that sexual abuse of residents is a major problem at these facilities. Survivors can seek compensation for the harm they suffered when the evidence supports institutional responsibility and the claim meets the applicable filing rules.

You do not need to know the name of the corporation behind the facility before contacting us. Start with where you stayed, approximately when you were there, and what happened.
