Uber is defending a growing wave of lawsuits brought by passengers claiming that they were sexually abused or assaulted by an Uber driver. The lawsuits assert that Uber was negligent in failing to adequately screen its Uber drivers before hiring them, allowing sexual predators to become drivers.

We will tell you right up front: our lawyers believe there are many strong claims in this litigation, and we think there is a real chance this MDL will have the higher average settlement amounts of any MDL class action in U.S. history.

The Uber driver sex abuse lawsuits have steadily grown over the last two years and have now been consolidated into a “class action lawsuit” MDL in the Northern District of California.

In recent years, churches and religious organizations have faced mounting liabilities related to civil sex abuse lawsuits.

If you think you may have a potential sex abuse lawsuit against the LDS Church, contact sexual abuse lawyers today (even if you fear the deadline to file has passed).  Call us at 888-322-3010 or contact us online.

If you were sexually abused in a California juvenile detention center, you are not alone… and it is not too late to come forward.

Thousands of survivors have already filed lawsuits against the state and its juvenile facilities, exposing a history of widespread abuse, cover-ups, and institutional failure. A $4 billion settlement in Los Angeles County confirmed what so many victims have known for years: this was not isolated misconduct. It was a system that failed to protect the very youth it was supposed to rehabilitate.

Even after that settlement, new claims continue to be filed. Not just in Los Angeles, but in San Diego, San Bernardino, Riverside, Alameda, and other counties across California. More survivors are stepping forward every day.

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 California and look at the potential settlement compensation in cases.

Growing scrutiny surrounds Dr. Mark E. Mulholland, an obstetrician-gynecologist who practiced in Washington’s Tri-Cities region for more than 20 years, as a wave of women continue to come forward with disturbing accounts of sexual abuse and harassment that allegedly occurred under the guise of routine medical care.

Mulholland served patients at Kadlec Regional Medical Center and affiliated Providence clinics, where former patients say he routinely crossed professional boundaries, made sexual remarks, and performed painful and invasive procedures without consent. Despite receiving numerous complaints dating back to at least 2003, the hospitals reportedly failed to intervene, allowing his conduct to continue unchecked for decades.

Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center was supposed to be a safe place. For years, families entrusted Timberline Knolls in Lemont, Illinois, with their daughters, sisters, and loved ones. The facility promised compassionate care and evidence-based treatment for mental health issues like trauma, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, and borderline personality disorder.

Instead, many survivors say they found something else: a dangerous environment, a culture of silence, and employees who exploited residents. As word spread, the Timberline Knolls scandal came into public view, sparking multiple Timberline Knolls lawsuits and eventually leading to Timberline Knolls closing.

Today, survivors and families are stepping forward to share their stories. If you or someone you love was harmed at Timberline Knolls, you have legal options. A Timberline Knolls lawsuit can help you seek accountability and compensation for the harm you suffered.
