You may be here because you or someone in your family is dealing with a diagnosis like acute myeloid leukemia or another blood cancer. These conditions are devastating on their own. When they are linked to toxic chemicals like benzene, the frustration is even greater.

Benzene has been tied to cancer for decades. The research is clear. Workers have brought benzene exposure lawsuits across the country, and juries have awarded significant verdicts in many cases. Families have negotiated benzene lawsuit settlements after showing that their exposure on the job or in the community caused leukemia, multiple myeloma, or other blood-related diseases.

If you are considering a benzene lawsuit, you are likely wondering how the process works, whether your case qualifies, and what kind of compensation is possible. The answers are specific to your situation, but the starting point is always the same: understanding how exposure happens and how the law allows victims to bring claims.

Our lawyers are helping victims who want to bring a Gardasil HVP vaccine lawsuit throughout the United States.  Our law firm is particularly focused on ovarian failure cases that lead to infertility in women who have taken Gardasil in the last few years.

Gardasil is a vaccine intended to prevent human papillomavirus (HPV), which can sometimes lead to cervical cancer in women. Gardasil was developed by the embattled pharmaceutical company Merck & Co.

Merck obtained FDA approval for Gardasil in 2006 based on deceptive research and clinical trials that misrepresented the vaccine’s efficacy while concealing its safety risks and side effects. Merck then launched an aggressive and highly misleading marketing campaign to include millions of parents vaccinating their pre-teen daughters with Gardasil.

Our lawyers are handling Similac and Enfamil infant formula lawsuits for families whose premature babies suffered or died from necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after taking one of these formulas.  Our law firm is reviewing NEC lawsuits in all 50 states.

Medical research links cow milk-based infant formulas such as Similac and Enfamil to a dangerous neonatal medical condition known as necrotizing enterocolitis.  These newborn NEC formula lawsuits make a lot of allegations.  But at their core, they allege that the makers of these formulas knew of the risk of NEC and did nothing to warn families and give them a choice.

If your premature baby was diagnosed with NEC after being given Similac or Enfamil formula, you may be able to participate in a class action lawsuit against the formula companies and receive financial compensation for the harm that was done to your child.

Victims of sexual abuse or sexual assault have the right to file civil lawsuits and get financial compensation. Recent changes in the law are now making it easier for abuse victims to seek justice in the civil courts. This post will discuss how sex abuse victims can file civil lawsuits in Indiana and look at the potential settlement value of these cases.

Survivors of the Central California Women’s Facility (often referred to as the Chowchilla Women’s Prison) have filed civil lawsuits alleging pervasive sexual abuse by correctional staff, detailing coercion, unwanted physical contact, and retaliation for reporting misconduct.

These claims underpin a growing wave of litigation holding the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) accountable. The lawsuits reveal an enduring pattern of institutional neglect, guards exploiting their authority and administrators turning a blind eye to repeated pleas for protection and justice.

Our lawyers will continue to report on every major Chowchilla lawsuit update as discovery progresses and more survivors come forward. If this follows the pattern of other institutional sex abuse cases in California, the Chowchilla women’s prison lawsuit could result in one of the largest prison-related abuse settlements in U.S. history.

Los Angeles County is at the center of one of the largest institutional child sexual abuse scandals in American history. Survivors of horrific abuse in juvenile halls and foster homes operated by the county have finally begun to see long-overdue justice after decades of silence, retaliation, and systemic neglect.

On April 29, 2025, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a $4 billion settlement to resolve more than 6,800 claims of child sexual abuse spanning a period of over 60 years. This settlement is the largest of its kind in U.S. history, surpassing even the Catholic Church and Boy Scouts of America in total payout.

The lawsuits primarily center on abuse committed by county employees, probation officers, and foster care workers. Many of these acts occurred at juvenile detention centers such as Barry J. Nidorf, Central Juvenile Hall, Los Padrinos, and various probation camps. Thousands of survivors suffered in silence, only recently able to come forward due to new legal reforms in California.

On this page, we will look at Los Angeles Central Juvenile Hall sex abuse lawsuits. Juvenile inmates at Central Juvenile Hall in LA who were the victims of sexual abuse may be able to bring civil lawsuits against LA County for negligently failing to protect them. Significant financial compensation is now available to successful plaintiffs.

If you have a potential lawsuit for sexual abuse at Central Juvenile Hall, call our California sex abuse lawyers today at 800-553-8082 or contact us online.

The Bair Hugger is a medical device that is used to keep patients warm and regulate body temperature during surgery. New research has shown, however, that the Bair Hugger increases the risk of infections by pushing bacteria into the body during surgery. This has prompted thousands of Bair Hugger infection lawsuits, which have been consolidated into a class action MDL. Continue reading
