Connecticut Sexual Abuse Lawsuits

If you were the victim of sexual abuse or assault, either as a child or an adult, you may have the right to bring a civil lawsuit against the person who abused you and, in many cases, a school, church, company, treatment center, government agency, or other organization that failed to protect you.

That second part is where the real civil case is.

The abuser is responsible for the abuse. No question. But what did the adults around that person know? Were there earlier complaints? Did a school quietly move an employee instead of investigating? Did DCF have information that should have triggered intervention? Did an organization put its reputation ahead of the child it was supposed to protect?

California Personal Injury Settlements

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

This page looks at settlement payouts and jury awards in personal injury cases in California. We provide statistics on reported settlements and jury verdicts, as well as factual summaries of recent cases resulting in payouts.

We also provide an overview of key personal injury laws in California, including the statute of limitations for injury claims, medical malpractice rules, comparative fault, and limits on damages.

Historical research published by Jury Verdict Research reported a compensatory median award of $150,000 in California personal injury trials, an average award of approximately $1.6 million, and a plaintiff recovery rate of about 45 percent. Those figures are useful background, but they should not be mistaken for current statewide averages. The dataset is not a live measure of 2026 verdicts, and the mix of catastrophic cases can push the mathematical average far above the result in a typical case.

Maryland Workers’ Comp Claims

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Maryland workers’ compensation law provides compensation and medical benefits for workplace injuries. Our lawyers fight to help injured workers recover as much as Maryland law will allow. Our Baltimore workers’ comp lawyers handle claims throughout Maryland. If you do not live close to Baltimore, you do not need to travel to our law firm.

Workers’ compensation is supposed to be straightforward. You get hurt at work. You report the injury. You get medical care. You receive wage benefits if you cannot work. But anyone who has dealt with a real workers’ comp claim knows the system can turn ugly fast. The insurance company may deny the claim, argue your injury is preexisting, refuse to authorize treatment, send you to an independent medical evaluation, or push you back to work before you are physically ready.

Except in certain limited instances, these benefits are the “exclusive remedy” available to injured workers. This means victims of workplace injuries usually cannot file a civil lawsuit against their employer for their injuries. But they can file a civil lawsuit against other parties responsible for their injuries.
