Medtronic Bravo Capsule Lawsuit (2026 FDA Recall)

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.

Social Media Addiction Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

This page is about social media addiction lawsuits and who is eligible to bring a claim. Our lawyers also provide the latest news on social media lawsuits, including the upcoming trial in California and the federal social media addiction MDL.

The problem that led to social media lawsuits is that millions of people, too many of whom are children, are addicted to social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, and YouTube. For these vulnerable users, social media addiction can be very harmful and lead to things like eating disorders, depression, self-harm, and, in some cases, suicide.

Now, these companies are facing a wave of lawsuits alleging that they knowingly designed the algorithms of their platforms to lure young people into harmful addictions.

Hernia Mesh Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Thousands of hernia mesh lawsuits are pending in courts across the country. Our hernia mesh lawyers are handling these cases in all 50 states.

The plaintiffs in these lawsuits are individuals with defective hernia mesh implanted during surgery, causing them to suffer severe post-surgical complications and injuries.

The hernia mesh lawsuits involve multiple hernia mesh products made by four medical device companies that are in (or were in) the litigation: Ethicon (a Johnson & Johnson subsidiary that has reached a settlement in most of its lawsuits), C.R. Bard (now part of Becton Dickinson), Covidien, and Atrium Medical Corp.

Suboxone Tooth Decay Lawsuit Update

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

This page explains the Suboxone tooth decay lawsuits, the dental injuries linked to Suboxone film, and where the federal MDL stands in 2026.

The core claim in the Suboxone litigation is straightforward: plaintiffs allege that Indivior and related defendants knew, or should have known, that Suboxone film could cause severe dental damage, including tooth decay, enamel erosion, broken teeth, tooth loss, and expensive dental reconstruction. Plaintiffs contend the companies failed to warn patients and prescribing doctors until the FDA required a dental warning in 2022.

Our lawyers are still taking selected Suboxone tooth decay lawsuits in 2026. We are screening these cases more carefully than we did earlier in the litigation. We know more now and, from seeing literally thousands of cases, we have a tighter handle on what we think will generate a Suboxone settlement.

Chlorpyrifos Parkinson’s Disease Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Chlorpyrifos lawsuits allege that repeated exposure to this widely used insecticide can contribute to Parkinson’s disease. The people most likely to bring these claims are farmers, pesticide applicators, pest control workers, groundskeepers, greenhouse employees, and others who personally mixed, loaded, sprayed, or cleaned up chlorpyrifos products over months or years.

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) was sold under trade names that include Dursban, Lorsban, Cobalt, Nufos, Bolton, Stallion, Pilot, Warhawk, and Hatchet. It was used on farms, golf courses, ornamental plants, and residential and commercial properties. Many workers remember the trade name but not the active ingredient. Product identification is therefore one of the first and most important parts of investigating a claim.

Uber Sexual Assault Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Uber is defending thousands of sexual assault lawsuits brought by passengers who say they were sexually assaulted by Uber drivers. Plaintiffs are asking what Uber knew about the risk of sexual assault, how it screened drivers, what happened when complaints came in, and whether the company could have done more to keep dangerous drivers off the platform. In the $8.5 million verdict, jurors confirmed what we have been saying all along.

Federal cases have been consolidated in In re: Uber Technologies Inc., Passenger Sexual Assault Litigation, MDL No. 3084, in the Northern District of California. In an MDL, each survivor still has her own lawsuit and her own damages.

By October 2026, 4,916 cases were pending in the federal MDL, with additional claims proceeding in California state court. A federal bellwether case scheduled for October was settled before opening statements. We expect another trial to be scheduled soon.

Spinal Cord Stimulator Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

A spinal cord stimulator is an implantable medical device used to manage chronic pain, most often involving the back or spine. These systems are marketed as a way to reduce pain by interrupting nerve signals before they reach the brain. But for a growing number of patients, the device fails to help. It introduces new and sometimes permanent problems, including electrical shocks, burning pain, infections, lead migration, hardware failure, and repeat surgeries to reposition or remove equipment that was supposed to improve quality of life.

This page explains spinal cord stimulator lawsuits and why they are being filed nationwide. It focuses on what patients are alleging, how these devices have failed in real-world use, and why many of these cases go beyond ordinary medical malpractice claims. The most serious lawsuits do not center on a single surgical mistake. They examine how modern spinal cord stimulators were designed, tested, and approved, and whether patients were ever adequately warned about the risks that now recur repeatedly in medical records and FDA reports.

Many victims want to know what spinal cord stimulator settlement amounts will look like and how we think compensation will be calculated, assuming an ultimate settlement. Settlement amounts and payouts in these cases will depend on several factors, which we dig into more fully below.

Camp Lejeune Lawsuit News and Updates

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

This page provides updates on Camp Lejeune lawsuits.

Our lawyers are still working to give the latest update on the litigation, even though we are no longer taking new cases. Why? Because there is little information out there, and we are staying with victims, including those we do not represent, until the end.

We recently reopened the comments below on October 19 to give you a chance to share your thoughts.

Roblox Child Sexual Abuse Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Roblox lawsuits are being filed by families who allege predators used the platform to groom, manipulate, exploit, or gain access to minors. These child sexual abuse and exploitation cases challenge years of Roblox branding itself as a safe place for children to create and play. Plaintiffs contend that its safety systems did not match that promise.

Federal lawsuits filed around the country allege that Roblox failed to protect minors from foreseeable exploitation and grooming risks. Most of these individual cases are now coordinated in the Roblox MDL in the Northern District of California, Case No. 25-md-03166-RS, before Chief Judge Richard Seeborg.

The core allegations are straightforward. Families claim Roblox failed to enforce meaningful barriers between adults and children and profited from design choices that kept young users engaged while leaving them vulnerable. Many complaints describe the same pattern: a predator initiates contact through in-game chat or messaging, builds trust, and then moves the conversation to Discord, Snapchat, or another outside service where the exploitation escalates.

Hair Relaxer Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Our lawyers are reviewing hair relaxer cancer lawsuits for women across the United States. These claims involve women who used chemical hair relaxers or hair straighteners for years and were later diagnosed with uterine cancer, including endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, or serious uterine fibroids that led to a hysterectomy.

The federal hair relaxer litigation included 12,381 pending lawsuits as of October 1, 2026. The cases are moving through expert discovery and bellwether preparation in the Northern District of Illinois. This litigation has been going on for years, but there is still no global hair relaxer settlement or MDL payout program. That does not mean our lawyers are not bullish on these cases. We are. It is just moving slowly, which is how it goes sometimes in the MDL mass torts. We still expect a favorable global settlement when all is said and done.

The strongest cases generally involve frequent, long-term use followed by uterine or ovarian cancer, a clear product history, and substantial treatment or reproductive injury.
