Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall Sex Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

It is difficult to pick which Los Angeles juvenile hall failed kids the most, but if our lawyers had to choose, it would be Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall.

Our attorneys are hearing from more survivors of sexual abuse at Los Padrinos than from any other LA County juvenile detention center. That volume of calls reflects what the lawsuits now make clear: Los Padrinos was one of the worst facilities in the system when it came to protecting children from sexual abuse.

Survivors are filing Los Padrinos juvenile hall lawsuits that seek both accountability and a fair settlement amount. This page explains how the litigation works, what the expected settlement payouts may look like, and why Los Padrinos has become the focus of so many claims. For victims, these cases are about getting the settlement compensation they more than deserve. But they are also about justice, acknowledgment, and forcing the County to pay for decades of systemic neglect.

Washington Sex Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

If you were the victim of sexual abuse or assault in Seattle or anywhere in Washington, either as a child or an adult, you may have the right to bring a civil lawsuit. The lawsuit may name not only the abuser but also a school, facility, company, government agency, church, or other organization that enabled the abuse or failed to protect you. Our sex abuse attorneys help survivors hold these institutions accountable.

This page looks at sexual abuse lawsuits in Washington, including recent cases, settlement amounts, the statute of limitations, and what you actually have to prove to bring a claim.

Washington has also changed its statute of limitations for childhood sexual abuse. For qualifying abuse occurring on or after June 6, 2024, there is no civil statute of limitations. Older claims are different. We explain those rules below because, unfortunately, the answer for an older survivor is not nearly as simple.

Apple AirTag Stalking Lawsuit: MDL 3199 Updates and Settlement Value

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

The Apple AirTag litigation now includes a federal MDL for people who allege that Apple AirTags were used to stalk, track, threaten, or harm them. On October 2, 2026, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation consolidated the federal AirTag stalking lawsuits into MDL No. 3199 in the Northern District of California, transferring 17 lawsuits from 13 federal districts to one judge.

There is no AirTag settlement for all victims. Not yet. But Apple says it has already settled a number of individual AirTag stalking claims. The Apple AirTag MDL gives us a chance to screen these cases and put them on an organized path forward. It is rare to be talking settlement this early in an MDL. But Apple has already shown that it is willing to resolve at least some of these claims.

What are these cases about? The core allegation is simple. Apple created a small, inexpensive, remarkably effective tracking device that could be hidden in a car, purse, backpack, or other personal property. For most uses, it is a fantastic device. The problem is Apple knew before AirTag was released that the device could be abused for stalking. Of course, Apple did not want this and built anti-stalking protections. The claim in these lawsuits is that those protections were not nearly enough to protect some victims.

Massage Sexual Assault Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Massage therapy is meant to offer healing, comfort, and stress relief, not fear or trauma. But in recent years, a disturbing number of sexual assault lawsuits against massage therapists have been filed across the United States. Women and men alike have come forward to report abuse during massage sessions at both independent practices and national spa franchises, including Massage Envy, MassageLuXe, Hand & Stone, Elements Massage, Spavia, and Woodhouse Spa. Our lawyers handle these cases nationally.

Many of these cases raise the same ugly question. Did the spa know, or should it have known, that the therapist presented a danger to customers? Lawsuits allege failures in hiring practices, background checks, supervision, and the handling of prior complaints. Some of the most troubling cases involve therapists who allegedly continued working after someone had already reported misconduct.

At the heart of these claims is the violation of a deeply personal boundary. Victims often report feeling trapped, exposed, and powerless, assaulted under the guise of treatment. And when spas fail to take swift action or try to silence or dismiss complaints, the trauma deepens.

Medtronic Bravo Capsule Lawsuit (2026 FDA Recall)

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Our lawyers are now focusing our attention on the Medtronic Bravo CF capsule recall.

This device is used to diagnose acid reflux and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In September 2026, the FDA classified a major recall of these devices as Class I, the agency’s most serious recall category.

This should be a simple no-frills test. A doctor attaches a small capsule to the lining of the patient’s esophagus. The capsule measures acidity and transmits readings to a receiver the patient wears. The goal is to determine whether the patient has acid reflux.
