Maryland May Amend Statute of Limitations to Allow Child Sex Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

The Maryland legislature is poised to finally pass a new law that will amend or eliminate the statute of limitations on civil lawsuits for child sexual abuse. If passed, the law would give thousands of childhood sexual assault and abuse victims the ability to bring civil sex abuse lawsuits against the abusers and the institutions that covered up the abuse (e.g., the Church, Boy Scouts, etc.).

The sex abuse lawyers at Mill & Zois represent victims of abuse in their fight for justice. We are currently seeking cases from individuals who were sexually abused or assaulted as children.

You can call any of our sexual assault lawyers at 800-553-8082 for a confidential discussion of your case and your options. You can also complete this simple online form.

Tylenol Autism Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Recent medical studies have determined using high doses of Tylenol (or generic acetaminophen) during pregnancy may cause an increased risk of having a baby with autism or autism spectrum disorder. The new research regarding the link between Tylenol use during pregnancy and autism has prompted many parents of autistic children to bring product liability lawsuits against manufacturers and retailers of acetaminophen products.

Tylenol autism lawsuits have now been consolidated into a new class action MDL. If this happens and the scientific evidence is deemed to be admissible there could eventually be a global settlement to award financial compensation to parents with acetaminophen-related autism.

Our lawyers are currently accepting new Tylenol autism cases across the country from parents of children diagnosed with autism or autism spectrum disorder following high-level use of Tylenol (or acetaminophen) during pregnancy.

Hair Relaxer Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

The product liability lawyers at Miller & Zois are now seeking cases from women who used chemical hair relaxers or hair straighteners on a regular basis for a minimum of 5 years and were subsequently diagnosed with uterine cancer. Contact us about a hair relaxer lawsuit today.

Camp Lejeune Water Poisoning Lawsuit

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Our Maryland-based attorneys are reviewing Camp Lejeune water poisoning lawsuits in all 50 states.

For 35 years (from the 1950s to the 1980s) an estimated 1 million former residents and employees at the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps base in North Carolina were being supplied with drinking water that was poisoned with massive levels of industrial chemicals. Subsequent studies have shown that exposure to these chemicals caused former Camp Lejeune personnel to suffer higher rates of cancer, birth defects, and other diseases.

Sadly, an austere law in North Carolina has prevented these victims from pursuing justice. But there is now a new law that gives Camp Lejeune water contamination victims the right to file water contamination lawsuits and get compensation for their injuries.
