This page will look at sex abuse lawsuits against Acadia Healthcare brought by patients at Acadia treatment facilities.

Acadia Healthcare (Acadia) has faced multiple lawsuits and investigations over allegations of sexual abuse involving vulnerable patients in its behavioral health facilities. These claims have highlighted systemic issues concerning patient safety, staff misconduct, and the company’s inadequate response to abuse reports. Families of victims and advocates argue that Acadia has placed profits above patient care, creating environments where abuse can occur without proper oversight.

Dr. Barry Brock, a longtime OB-GYN affiliated with Cedars-Sinai, is now at the center of a growing sexual abuse scandal that has left hundreds of women seeking justice. As of early January 2025, more than 160 women have come forward, filing lawsuits accusing Dr. Brock of inappropriate and medically unjustifiable behavior during their care.

These sexual assault lawsuits not only name Dr. Barry Brock but also the institutions where he worked, including Cedars-Sinai and other Los Angeles facilities.  Why? Because they failed to protect patients from his predatory behavior. This Dr. Barry Brock lawsuit shows just how medical institutions enabled abuse by ignoring complaints and prioritizing their reputations and their social relationships with their colleagues over patient safety.

If you were one of Dr. Brock’s patients, you likely feel anger, confusion, or betrayal. Many survivors recount invasive exams without gloves, lewd comments about their bodies, and procedures that caused lasting physical and emotional harm. Worse, when some of these concerns were reported to Cedars-Sinai staff, they were dismissed with excuses like, “That’s just how he is.” Such disregard for patient welfare is at the core of institutional sexual abuse lawsuits, where hospitals and clinics must be held accountable for their role in enabling predators.

Our lawyers are handling Similac and Enfamil infant formula lawsuits for families whose premature babies suffered or died from necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after taking one of these formulas.  Our law firm is reviewing NEC lawsuits in all 50 states.

Medical research links cow milk-based infant formulas such as Similac and Enfamil to a dangerous neonatal medical condition known as necrotizing enterocolitis.  These newborn NEC formula lawsuits make a lot of allegations.  But at their core, they allege that the makers of these formulas knew of the risk of NEC and did nothing to warn families and give them a choice.

If your premature baby was diagnosed with NEC after being given Similac or Enfamil formula, you may be able to participate in a class action lawsuit against the formula companies and receive financial compensation for the harm that was done to your child.

  This page looks at civil lawsuits for victims of sexual abuse at San Diego juvenile detention centers.

San Diego County Juvenile Hall is now at the center of a troubling investigation into allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct against minors who were detained at the facility. Survivors have come forward with reports of sexual exploitation, misconduct by staff members, and a pervasive culture of abuse that was allegedly ignored or covered up by those in power. These allegations are part of a larger pattern of sexual abuse within the juvenile justice system, where vulnerable youth are too often subjected to harm by the very individuals entrusted with their care.
