Apartment Negligent Security Lawsuits

An apartment shooting, rape, or assault becomes a negligent security case when the property owner or another responsible company had reason to anticipate the danger and failed to take reasonable precautions that could have prevented it. These lawsuits rarely involve minor harm. Our lawyers usually see death, paralysis, gunshot wounds, sexual assault, and severe psychological injuries.

Our lawyers bring negligent security apartment complex lawsuits around the country. The basic claim is straightforward. A landlord invited people to live on the property, collected rent, controlled the common areas, and failed to respond to a serious security risk. Proving that claim requires much more than showing that a crime happened on the premises.

If you have a potential negligent security lawsuit against an apartment complex or condominium association, call us at 800-553-8082 or contact us online for a free consultation.

Twin Pines Ranch Sex Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Twin Pines Ranch in Riverside County was a juvenile detention facility that operated for nearly seven decades before closing in 2014. Thousands of boys between ages 14 and 18 were sent there under the authority of the Riverside County Probation Department. For many, the Ranch was not a place of rehabilitation but a site of sexual abuse and exploitation by staff who were supposed to protect them.

Today, survivors are filing lawsuits against Riverside County and others responsible for the abuse at Twin Pines Ranch. These claims seek compensation and accountability for decades of misconduct and neglect inside one of California’s most notorious “boys ranch” facilities.

Nurse Wilfredo Figueroa-Berrios Sexual Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Wilfredo Figueroa-Berrios was a nurse at Sinai-Grace Hospital in Detroit, Michigan. For years, he held a position of trust in the emergency department, treating patients who came in vulnerable and often unable to protect themselves. In 2025, Figueroa-Berrios was criminally charged with multiple counts of sexual assault. The allegations are disturbing: he is accused of assaulting a patient inside Sinai-Grace Hospital and another woman outside the hospital, among other pending cases.

Our sex abuse lawyers place the blame squarely on Figueroa-Berrios and on the hospital system that allowed him to work unchecked. Sinai-Grace Hospital and its corporate parent, Tenet Healthcare, should never have allowed this to happen.

This page talks about these lawsuits and the settlement amounts we expect victims to see if the litigation is as successful as our attorneys expect at this early stage.

Audy Juvenile Detention Center Sex Abuse Lawsuit (Cook County)

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

This page looks at sexual abuse lawsuits involving juvenile inmates at the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center (commonly known as the Audy Center or Audy Home).

Like many juvenile detention facilities across Illinois, rampant sexual abuse, violence, and mistreatment plagued the Audy Center for decades. For too long, Cook County officials and detention leadership failed to protect the vulnerable youth in their custody, allowing widespread abuse to occur behind locked doors. Staff misconduct, systemic negligence, and an entrenched culture of silence turned the facility into a breeding ground for trauma rather than rehabilitation. As a result, survivors are now stepping forward to file lawsuits, seeking not only compensation for their suffering but also accountability for a system that betrayed them.

If you believe you have a potential sex abuse lawsuit involving the Audy Center in Cook County, contact our sex abuse lawyers today at 800-553-8082 or get a free online consultation. We are committed to fighting for survivors and holding Cook County and its officials accountable for the harm they allowed to happen.

New Hampshire Juvenile Detention Center Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Over the past several years, numerous lawsuits have been filed against New Hampshire’s juvenile detention facilities, particularly the Sununu Youth Services Center (formerly known as the Youth Development Center), alleging decades of physical and sexual abuse by staff members. These allegations have led to criminal charges, civil lawsuits, and significant settlements.

Since 2020, nearly 1,300 survivors have come forward with harrowing accounts of abuse inside YDC. These allegations include rape, violent beatings, and emotional torture spanning from the 1960s through the 2010s. Lawsuits claim that state employees not only committed these crimes but operated with impunity for decades, protected by a system designed to hide abuse rather than stop it.

Our sex abuse lawyers are helping victims of juvenile detention center sex abuse get the compensation they deserve. Contact us at 800-553-8082 or reach out to us online for a free case evaluation.

Chances of Success in a Disability Claim

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a government program that is supposed to provide financial support to anyone who is unable to work because they have become permanently disabled due to an illness or injury. To qualify for SSDI benefits you have to file a disability claim with the Social Security Administration (SSA) and your claim must be approved.

Each year, the SSA received over 2 million claims for disability benefits. The odds of getting a claim approved are not very good. Only about 35% of all SSDI claims are ultimately approved, and only 30% of disability applications are approved at the initial stage. In some cases, disability claims are properly denied because the applicant is not truly disabled and simply does not meet the eligibility requirements. In many other cases, however, claims are denied for technical reasons, usually involving an incomplete application or insufficient medical documentation.
