Product LiabilityVideo Game AddictionVideo game addiction among children and adolescents has reached crisis proportions in the United States, with the World Health Organization formally classifying Gaming Disorder as a medical condition in 2019. An estimated 91% of American children ages 2 to 17 play video games, and research shows that between 3% and 10% of youth gamers meet clinical criteria for addiction. The games at the center of this litigation are precision-engineered behavioral systems that employ variable-ratio reinforcement schedules found in slot machines. Loot boxes, battle passes, and engagement-optimized matchmaking are designed to create compulsive use in children. The FTC’s $520 million settlement with Epic Games established federal precedent, and hundreds of individual lawsuits have been consolidated for coordinated proceedings with bellwether trials expected in 2026.Read the investigation
EnvironmentalEthylene OxideEthylene oxide (EtO) is a highly toxic chemical used to sterilize medical equipment and manufacture other chemicals. The EPA determined in 2016 that EtO is carcinogenic to humans at exposure levels far lower than previously thought. Residents living near EtO-emitting facilities in Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Colorado, and other states have filed lawsuits alleging their cancers — including lymphoma, breast cancer, and leukemia — were caused by chronic exposure to EtO emissions.Read the investigation
EnvironmentalBaby Food Heavy Metals LawsuitThe baby food heavy metals litigation targets manufacturers who knowingly sold contaminated infant food. A 2021 House subcommittee report revealed internal testing showing arsenic levels up to 180 ppb, lead up to 886 ppb, and significant cadmium and mercury contamination. MDL 3101 in N.D. California consolidates over 3,200 cases as of early 2026.Read the investigation
Product LiabilityZantac / Ranitidine (NDMA Cancer)Ranitidine, sold under the brand name Zantac by Sanofi and previously by GSK, Pfizer, and Boehringer Ingelheim, was one of the most prescribed heartburn and acid reflux medications in history. In 2019, the independent pharmaceutical testing laboratory Valisure discovered that ranitidine is inherently unstable and produces NDMA — N-nitrosodimethylamine, a probable human carcinogen — at levels up to 304,500 nanograms per tablet. The FDA acceptable daily intake limit for NDMA is 96 nanograms. In April 2020, the FDA requested that all manufacturers withdraw ranitidine products from the U.S. market. Consumers who took Zantac regularly for a year or more and subsequently developed bladder, stomach, colorectal, breast, prostate, or esophageal cancer may have viable legal claims. A federal MDL in the Southern District of Florida was dismissed in November 2022 when Judge Robin Rosenberg excluded plaintiffs' general causation experts under Daubert, finding their methodologies unreliable. However, that ruling applies only to federal court and does not bind state courts. Litigation continues in Delaware Superior Court and California state courts in 2026, where different expert standards and case-specific evidence can support claims.Read the investigation
EnvironmentalTalcum PowderTalcum powder litigation is one of the largest and most consequential mass tort actions in American history. More than 63,000 lawsuits have been filed against Johnson & Johnson and its talc supplier Imerys, alleging that decades of Baby Powder use caused ovarian cancer, mesothelioma, and other cancers. The litigation centers on two distinct but related harms: the carcinogenic properties of talc itself when applied to the perineal area, and asbestos contamination in talc products traced to mining operations. Juries across the country have returned billions of dollars in verdicts, including a $4.69 billion verdict in St. Louis (later reduced to $2.12 billion on appeal) and a $1.56 billion verdict in Baltimore in December 2025. J&J discontinued talc-based Baby Powder in North America in 2020 and globally in 2022, replacing it with cornstarch. The MDL 2738 in the District of New Jersey, now before Judge Michael Shipp, is coordinating federal proceedings with bellwether trials underway.Read the investigation
EnvironmentalCamp Lejeune Water ContaminationCamp Lejeune is one of the largest environmental contamination disasters in American military history. For over three decades, servicemembers, their families, and base workers drank, cooked with, and bathed in water laced with industrial solvents at concentrations hundreds of times above safe limits. The federal government knew about contamination as early as the 1980s but delayed disclosure for years. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 (part of the PACT Act) finally gave victims the right to sue the federal government — a right previously blocked by North Carolina's statute of repose. The administrative claim deadline under the CLJA was August 10, 2024, and is now closed for new claimants. However, tens of thousands of claimants filed timely administrative claims and are now engaged in litigation in the Eastern District of North Carolina, Wilmington Division. Experienced attorneys represent clients in that litigation and can also assist veterans in filing and upgrading VA disability claims, which remain open regardless of the CLJA deadline.Read the investigation

$2.12B
Talcum Powder
A St. Louis jury awarded $4.69 billion to 22 women diagnosed with ovarian cancer after using J&J talcum powder products, including $4.14 billion in punitive damages and $550 million in compensatory damages. The Missouri Court of Appeals later reduced the award to $2.12 billion by striking the claims of plaintiffs without sufficient connection to Missouri. Even after reduction, the Ingham verdict remains one of the largest product liability awards in American history and established the template for multi-plaintiff talc trials.

$2.1B
Roundup
A Georgia jury awarded $2.1 billion to a plaintiff diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma after extensive Roundup exposure — the largest individual Roundup verdict to date. The verdict came after the Supreme Court declined to hear Bayer’s preemption defense, signaling continued legal exposure for the company. Bayer settled the case in November 2025 while it was on appeal.

$1.56B
Talcum Powder
A Baltimore jury returned the largest single-plaintiff talcum powder verdict in history, awarding $1.56 billion to plaintiff in Craft v. Johnson & Johnson. The award comprised $1 billion in punitive damages against J&J, $500 million in punitive damages against Pecos River Talc (a J&J-affiliated entity), and $59.84 million in compensatory damages. The verdict reflected the jury’s response to evidence of J&J’s decades-long concealment of asbestos contamination and cancer risk in its Baby Powder products.
