A growing number of families are filing lawsuits against Roblox after discovering their children were groomed, exploited, or exposed to explicit content through the platform. Once promoted as a safe space for kids to create and play, Roblox is now at the center of a national legal reckoning. Multiple high-profile cases—including a federal Roblox lawsuit in Texas and an ongoing class action lawsuit against Roblox—allege the company failed to protect minors from foreseeable dangers.

These lawsuits claim Roblox turned a blind eye to predators, unsafe games, and deceptive monetization practices that targeted children. Many victims were contacted through in-game chats and later coerced into private conversations on third-party apps like Discord and Snapchat. Parents who believed their kids were safe online are now asking how to sue Roblox for the lasting harm their children suffered.

This litigation is more than a wave of individual claims—it is a coordinated effort to hold Roblox accountable for enabling child exploitation and misleading the public about platform safety. Whether searching for information about joining a Roblox class action, understanding the latest Roblox court cases, or learning how to sue Roblox, this page offers a detailed overview of the current legal landscape.

⛪ Clergy Sex Abuse Lawsuits at a Glance – 2025 Update

Massage therapy

is meant to offer healing, comfort, and stress relief — not fear or trauma. But in recent years, a disturbing number of sexual assault lawsuits against massage therapists have been filed across the United States. Women and men alike have come forward to report abuse during massage sessions at both independent practices and national spa franchises, including Massage Envy, MassageLuXe, Elements Massage, and Woodhouse Spa. These cases often reveal shocking failures in hiring practices, background checks, and internal oversight, placing vulnerable clients at risk.

If you or someone you love has been sexually assaulted during a massage, you are not alone… and you have legal options. A massage sexual assault lawsuit can hold both the abuser and the spa or franchise accountable for failing to protect clients. Many survivors are now seeking settlement compensation or a jury payout for the emotional, physical, and psychological damage they suffered, along with changes in industry policies to prevent future incidents.

At the heart of these claims is the violation of a deeply personal boundary. Victims often report feeling trapped, disrobed, and powerless — assaulted under the guise of therapeutic treatment. And when spas fail to take swift action or try to silence or dismiss complaints, the trauma deepens. Through civil litigation, survivors are demanding accountability, safer client protocols, and public acknowledgment of the harm they endured.

For years, we have been filing lawsuits for victims injured by these dangerously flawed kitchen appliances.

These already strong pressure cooker lawsuits have grown even stronger: a recall has been issued for specific Ninja Foodi pressure cooker models. This recall confirms what many injured consumers and our lawyers have been saying all along. The product is defective, unreasonably dangerous. It should never have been sold in its current form.
