NEC Baby Formula Lawsuit

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 many 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.

Uber Sexual Assault Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Uber is facing the largest wave of passenger sexual assault lawsuits in U.S. history. Survivors across the country allege that Uber drivers sexually assaulted them and that the company is legally responsible because it failed to screen drivers properly, ignored prior complaints, and did not implement basic safety measures.

These claims are now consolidated in In re: Uber Technologies Inc., Passenger Sexual Assault Litigation, MDL No. 3084, in the Northern District of California. The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation centralized these lawsuits because they share common factual questions about Uber’s knowledge of sexual assault reports, driver screening, driver training, and safety measures. This is not technically a class action lawsuit. It is an MDL where the cases are consolidated for discovery, but each victim maintains her own claim.

As of June 2026, more than 3,000 plaintiffs have joined the federal MDL, with hundreds more cases still pending in the California coordinated proceeding. The first MDL trial began in January 2026, and the jury returned an $8.5 million verdict in early February. Our lawyers believe these are exceptionally strong cases. The evidence points to a pattern: repeated warnings about dangerous drivers, no action from Uber, and preventable assaults that followed.

Hair Relaxer Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Our lawyers are reviewing hair relaxer cancer lawsuits for women throughout 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 now includes nearly 12,000 plaintiffs. The cases are moving through expert discovery and bellwether preparation in the Northern District of Illinois. No hair relaxer settlement has been announced, and no plaintiff has received a settlement payout through the federal MDL. The latest hair relaxer lawsuit update is that Judge Mary Rowland has lifted a discovery stay for a group of defendants after concluding that settlement discussions had not produced enough progress to justify keeping those cases frozen.

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.

Paragard IUD Lawsuit Settlement Amounts

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Our lawyers are handling Paragard IUD lawsuits for women throughout the United States. These cases allege that the copper IUD can fracture during removal, leaving one or both plastic arms inside the uterus and sometimes forcing the patient to undergo another procedure or surgery.

The federal litigation now includes more than 4,000 filed cases. The first bellwether trial ended in a defense verdict in February 2026. That was a real loss for plaintiffs, and it changed the settlement calculus maybe a bit. But it is just one case, and all that can be turned around with a win in September 2026 when we have the next trial.

So there is no Paragard settlement program or average payout in July 2026. Our lawyers still believe these claims may eventually be resolved through a negotiated settlement, but the first defense verdict makes it harder to predict when that could happen or what defendants will be willing to pay. We discuss our estimated Paragard settlement values below.

Chlorpyrifos 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 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.

If you have Parkinson’s disease after years of working with pesticides, you may have wondered whether that exposure played a role. A December 2025 study gives lawyers and scientists a serious reason to investigate chlorpyrifos. Researchers associated estimated long-term residential exposure near agricultural applications with more than 2.5 times the risk of Parkinson’s disease. They also found Parkinson’s-related brain damage in mice that inhaled chlorpyrifos.

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 people arrive here with a practical question in mind: what do spinal cord stimulator settlement amounts look like, and how does compensation get calculated when a device causes lasting harm? That question cannot be answered in isolation. Settlement amounts and payouts are driven by the full medical timeline, including the costs of repeat surgeries, explantation, and permanent loss of function, as well as the downstream consequences when a pain-management device leaves someone worse off than before it was implanted.

Gambling Addiction Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Our lawyers are investigating gambling addiction lawsuits involving DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, ESPN Bet, Bet365, Fanatics Sportsbook, Hard Rock Bet, and other online betting platforms. The central allegation is that these companies had the data to recognize compulsive gambling behavior and, instead of slowing vulnerable users down, continued pushing bonus bets, deposit matches, notifications, VIP offers, profit boosts, parlays, microbets, and personalized promotions.

If you or your child suffered serious harm from online sports betting addiction, the first question is not whether gambling was legal. The first question is whether the platform used design, data, and marketing to keep a vulnerable user betting when a responsible operator should have stepped in.

If you or someone you love has suffered severe financial and emotional harm because of addiction to online gambling or sports betting, contact our lawyers at 800-553-8082 or get a free, no-obligation online consultation.

New York Sex Abuse Lawsuits and Settlements

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Victims of sexual abuse or assault, either as a child or an adult, have the right to bring a civil lawsuit against both their abuser and any school, company, or organization that might be liable for the abuse.

For decades, schools, churches, and treatment centers have used a playbook to silence victims, destroying records, intimidating survivors, and using legal loopholes to dodge responsibility. But courts are catching up, and new laws in New York are forcing these institutions to pay for the harm they caused.

In this post, we will provide a brief overview of sexual abuse lawsuits in New York. We will explain the applicable statute of limitations for sex abuse civil cases in New York and how settlement amounts are calculated in these cases.
