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.

It is difficult to pick which Los Angeles juvenile hall failed kids the most, but if our lawyers had to choose, it would be Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall. Our lawyers are hearing from more survivors of sexual abuse at Los Padrinos than from any other LA County juvenile detention center. That volume of calls reflects what the lawsuits now make clear: Los Padrinos was one of the worst facilities in the system when it came to protecting children from sexual abuse.

Survivors are filing Los Padrinos juvenile hall lawsuits that seek both accountability and a fair settlement amount.  This page explains how the litigation works, what the expected settlement payouts may look like, and why Los Padrinos has become the focus of so many claims. For victims, these cases are about getting the settlement compensation they more than deserve. But they are also about justice, acknowledgment, and forcing the County to pay for decades of systemic neglect.

There has already been one big sex abuse settlement for Los Padrinos sex abuse victims, and we expect another.  Our attorneys are signing up new victims for a compensation claim from Los Angeles detention centers every day. If you have a potential lawsuit for sexual abuse at Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall, call our sex abuse lawyers today at 800-553-8082 or contact us online.
