$2.75 million settlement

Three middle-aged men successfully prosecuted their claims that they had been molested by a family friend some 40 years earlier. Despite obstacles created by the statute of limitations and proof problems, these brave men exposed the truth, obtained needed therapy, and financially punished the child molester responsible.

$2.6 million settlement

An East Bay school district was ordered to pay $2.6 million by a jury because the high school was a “closed campus”, and between the 9th-12th grade years, a female student would leave school to meet an older, married family member, who molested her. The school district argued that the student was never molested on campus, and that it had proper procedures to enforce its closed campus policy. The female student prevailed, pointing out the only time during the more than three year period that she was ever molested, was during school hours. Her perpetrator was never able to gain access to her other than during school hours.

$1.6 million settlement

A Bay Area School District was held responsible for the grooming of an 8th grade student and subsequent molestation outside of school by her teacher. Ultimately, the abuse was reported to authorities, the teacher is serving prison time, and the school district was held accountable for failing to protect its student.

$1.5 million settlement

A 23 year-old Las Vegas woman sued her mother and adopted father based on her adopted father’s rape of her when she was 13 years old. Her parents denied the fact of the sexual assault as well as audiotape evidence the daughter had obtained and instead claimed that their daughter was simply a “bad seed.” After extensive discovery involving depositions of numerous family members, friends, physicians and business associates, the case settled for ten times the plaintiff’s original demand which was made prior to filing the lawsuit.

$1.25 million settlement

A 52 year-old woman was able to avoid the statute of limitations on her father who molested her during childhood.

$1.1 million verdict

Two 36-year-old women sued their molester and his wife, who obtained a fraudulent divorce during the time the women were suing their perpetrator. The jury found in favor of the women, and held the ex-wife accountable for her ex-husband’s misconduct, even though the molestations occurred before the marriage.

$1.1 million settlement

A 34 year old woman held her childhood friend’s father responsible for molesting her when she was in elementary school.

$900,000 settlement

A teacher molested her 8th grade male student over a period of several months. The molestation was reported years later at which time the teacher was confronted by law enforcement and committed suicide.

$880,000 settlement

A 25 year-old woman had been sexual abused as a child by her seriously deranged father. When she learned that her father had remarried for a fourth time, and had yet another set of young children to potentially victimize, we represented her in a lawsuit. Ultimately, a mediated solution was obtained shortly before trial. The Defendant father, however, violated the court’s order, fired his original lawyer, refused to pay, and appealed the U.S. District Court’s affirmation of the arbitrator’s order requiring him to pay. Both the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court rejected his attempts to avoid responsibility. He lost at every stage, and our client was successful in her difficult legal and emotional struggle.

$530,000 Jury verdict

After an emotional trial, a jury sided with a forty-eight year old woman who was sexually groped in 2011 by an eighty-two year old who molested her when she was  a child. Click here for the details
