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.

What happened inside the Central California Women’s Facility, known to most as Chowchilla Women’s Prison, is not a story of isolated misconduct. It is a record of sustained institutional failure. For years, correctional officers at Chowchilla used their authority to coerce, manipulate, and abuse incarcerated women. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation received warnings. Complaints were filed. Those in charge did not act.
Hundreds of survivors have now come forward. Their lawsuits describe repeated sexual assaults, unwanted touching, threats of retaliation, and an entrenched system that protected the abusers. These women were not protected by the state. They were targeted by it.
If you or someone you care about was abused at Chowchilla, you do not have to remain silent. Survivors are filing lawsuits to hold the system accountable. You have the right to pursue justice.

Millions of women use chemical hair relaxers on a regular basis. New scientific research three years ago revealed that chronic exposure to the chemicals in hair relaxer products can cause uterine and ovarian cancer.

These cases are moving forward. The MDL judge has scheduled the first bellwether trial for 2early 2027. These trials are intended to help both sides gauge how juries might respond to the evidence and could influence settlement discussions…if there is not a global settlement before the first trial, as many, including our lawyers, suspect.
