Spinal cord stimulator lawsuits are being filed by patients who say their implanted pain device caused new injuries instead of relief. Our lawyers are handling these claims.

These cases involve devices made by Boston Scientific, Abbott, Medtronic, Nevro, and other neuromodulation companies. The core claims are that the device migrated, malfunctioned, shocked the patient, burned, failed to control pain, caused neurological problems, required revision surgery, or had to be removed entirely.

A spinal cord stimulator is a surgically implanted device near the spinal cord. The leads sit in the epidural space, and the implanted pulse generator sends electrical stimulation intended to interfere with pain signals. When the device works, it helps patients with chronic pain. When it fails, the patient is often left with worse pain, additional surgery, nerve injury, infection, paralysis, or permanent limitations that did not exist before the implant.

From the early 1950s to the late 1980s, the Marine Corps base at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina provided residents and employees with drinking water heavily contaminated with toxic chemicals.

Extensive scientific research has revealed that the poisoned water supply at Camp Lejeune had a devastating impact on the long-term health of base residents, who have suffered significantly higher rates of birth defects, cancer, and neurological conditions.

Our lawyers are not taking new clients in this litigation. This page provides the latest updates on the Camp Lejeune litigation and addresses some of your key questions as this litigation drags on.

Grok sexual deepfake lawsuits are being filed against xAI over claims that Grok and related image-generation tools were used to create and spread nonconsensual sexual images of real people. The lawsuits focus on a simple question with serious consequences: Did XAI release and promote a tool that could turn ordinary photos of women, girls, and other real people into sexualized deepfakes without meaningful safeguards?

These are not ordinary internet defamation cases. A sexual deepfake can look real, spread fast, attach itself to a victim’s name, and keep resurfacing after the original post is removed. Survivors describe fear, humiliation, anxiety, depression, loss of privacy, reputational harm, school disruption, work disruption, and the awful feeling that strangers may have saved, shared, or traded fake intimate images of them.

The strongest Grok deepfake cases will be built on proof: the prompt history, the source photo, the generated image or link, the account that posted it, takedown requests, platform responses, police reports, school reports, therapy records, witness statements, and evidence that xAI knew this kind of misuse was foreseeable before more people were harmed.

Roundup lawsuit have been going on for over eight years now. This is the story of the Roundup litigation, what plaintiffs can do in 2025, and an update on the latest spate of Roundup NHL verdicts nationwide.

Lawsuits regarding the Roundup weed killer allege that Monsanto’s herbicide led to the development of non-Hodgkin lymphoma or similar cancers in individuals. Plaintiffs claim that Monsanto and its parent company, Bayer, failed to disclose the potential cancer risks associated with the product to the public. Moreover, these legal actions assert that the company deliberately misled the public about Roundup’s safety.

Referred to in litigation as the “Monsanto Papers,” internal communications from Monsanto revealed potential concealment of Roundup’s cancer connection over an extended period. These documents purportedly displayed evidence of the company’s amicable relationships with regulators and tactics employed to suppress scientific evidence linking glyphosate to cancer.

Our lawyers are reviewing claims online gambling addiction lawsuits against major sportsbook and casino app companies, including DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, ESPN Bet, Bet365, Fanatics Sportsbook, Hard Rock Bet, and other mobile betting platforms.

These claims are not built on the idea that every losing bet should be refunded. Our question is did the betting company use its data, app design, promotions, and customer targeting to keep a vulnerable person gambling after the warning signs were obvious?  The evidence is showing our attorneys that they did.

The strongest cases show more than losses. They show escalating deposits, late-night betting, loss chasing, repeated promotions, VIP contact, failed self-exclusion, ignored limits, mental health harm, family intervention, treatment records, and a platform that kept pushing instead of slowing the user down.

Sexual abuse inside a women’s prison is not a relationship, a misunderstanding, or a gray area. It is an abuse of custody and control by someone who has power over where a woman lives, works, receives medical care, and whether she is punished for speaking up.

California women’s prison sexual abuse lawsuits now include claims tied to Central California Women’s Facility in Chowchilla,  California Institution for Women in Chino, and the Folsom Women’s Facility. Some cases involve named officers who were criminally charged or convicted. Others involve medical abuse, kitchen or work assignment abuse, retaliation after reporting, ignored grievances, failed PREA investigations, abusive doctors, and institutional decisions that allegedly let dangerous staff stay around women in custody.

This page is written for survivors and families who are trying to understand whether they have a civil case. The answer depends on the facility, dates, perpetrator, proof, injuries, reporting history, and deadline rules. You do not need a criminal conviction to bring a civil sexual abuse lawsuit. You do need a careful timeline, the right defendant theory, and a lawyer who understands prison abuse cases against the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR).

Parents buy children’s toothpaste because they are trying to do the right thing. You read the label, look for the safer choice, and trust that a product marketed as kid-friendly, natural, and clean is not hiding something you would never knowingly put in your child’s mouth.

That trust is now at the center of the Hello toothpaste lawsuits. Hello Products, now owned by Colgate-Palmolive, is facing lawsuits over several different issues:

The California Institution for Women, commonly called CIW, is one of California’s primary women’s prisons and one of the state’s prison facilities now facing serious sexual abuse allegations.
This page is about civil lawsuits for women who were sexually abused, sexually assaulted, coerced, harassed, or subjected to abusive medical treatment while incarcerated at CIW. The allegations involve correctional officers, prison staff, medical staff, and Dr. Scott Lee, the former CIW gynecologist accused in federal litigation of abusing incarcerated women under the pretense of medical care.
If you were abused at CIW, the first thing to understand is this: being incarcerated did not take away your right to bodily safety. A prison sentence is not permission for a guard, doctor, cook, nurse, counselor, supervisor, or anyone else with authority to use your body.
California law and California jurors now recognize the obvious power imbalance inside detention facilities. In a prison setting, sexual contact by staff is not treated like ordinary adult contact because the staff member holds the keys, controls movement, controls write-ups, controls access to medical care, and can make daily life unbearable.
Women are now filing CIW sexual abuse lawsuits because they allege CDCR and CIW officials failed to stop abuse, failed to respond to complaints, failed to supervise staff, and allowed known risks to continue. These cases are not just about one employee. The strongest lawsuits focus on the institution’s knowledge, warnings, ignored complaints, retaliation, and failure to protect women in custody.
Our firm is currently reviewing CIW sex abuse cases involving correctional officers, prison employees, Dr. Scott Lee, medical staff, and other personnel. You can call 888-322-3010 or contact us online.

Samsung is one of the most trusted names in consumer electronics. Most consumers willingly pay more for the Samsung name and it is why so many people bought Samsung refrigerators with high expectations. These refrigerators looked modern, offered premium features, and promised the kind of convenience consumers expect from a major appliance that often costs thousands of dollars.

But for many Samsung refrigerator owners, the built-in ice maker became the most frustrating part of the appliance. Consumers reported ice makers freezing over, water leaking from the refrigerator, loud fan noises, slush buildup, cracked ice buckets, and repeated repair attempts that did not permanently fix the problem.

Those complaints eventually led to the Samsung refrigerator ice maker lawsuit, including the Bianchi v. Samsung Electronics America case filed in federal court in New Jersey. That lawsuit alleged that certain Samsung French door refrigerators had defective ice makers and that Samsung failed to provide a meaningful fix to consumers who kept dealing with the same problems.

If you were sexually abused in Michigan, whether it happened recently or years ago, this page explains your legal options. A civil lawsuit can seek compensation from the abuser, but in many cases, the stronger claim is against the institution that gave the abuser access and failed to protect you.

Michigan sex abuse lawsuits may involve schools, churches, hospitals, doctors, nurses, juvenile detention centers, residential treatment facilities, foster care placements, youth programs, employers, coaches, counselors, transportation companies, or public institutions. These cases are not all the same. But the core question is often similar: who had the power to stop the abuse, what warning signs existed, and why did no one act in time?

Michigan law gives some survivors more time than ordinary injury victims. But the state still has one of the more restrictive civil deadline systems compared to states that have opened broad revival windows for older childhood sexual abuse claims. That may change. The Justice for Survivors bills have moved farther than past reform efforts. But until the Legislature acts, survivors must still work within current Michigan law.
