This page is for women considering filing a Depo-Provera lawsuit. Our lawyers provide the latest updates, explain the litigation and settlement process, and offer our assessment of potential Depo-Provera settlement amounts.

Scientific research has found a strong association between prolonged use of injectable medroxyprogesterone acetate, the active drug in Depo-Provera, and intracranial meningioma. Women who received Depo-Provera injections and were later diagnosed with a meningioma are filing lawsuits alleging that Pfizer and related companies failed to provide an adequate warning.

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.

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 identify compulsive gambling behavior and, instead of slowing vulnerable users down, continued to push 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.
