Helping Women Facing Injuries, Illnesses, & Denials
Many women suffer needlessly every day due to recklessness, corporate greed, or violence. No matter what you’re facing, we may be able to help you and your family.
We support women and their loved ones harmed by:
Birth injuries that could have been prevented
Cases of physical assault and battery
Dangerous drugs like Depo-Provera® that caused harm
Defective medical devices such as hernia mesh
Disability claims that were wrongfully denied
Elder and nursing home abuse
Medical malpractice and hospital errors
Mesothelioma, a rare cancer caused by asbestos exposure
Other asbestos-related diseases like lung cancer
Sexual abuse and assault
Abuse and Assault
Women who experience any type of abuse and assault could be left with long-standing mental and physical health concerns. No one should have to carry the weight of assault alone, especially if companies or institutions looked the other way.
Sexual Abuse
Any nonconsensual sexual activity could be considered abuse. Whether it happened in a medical setting, school, church, or anywhere else, you deserve to be heard.
Rideshare Assault
Rideshare companies like Uber® and Lyft® may have ignored red flags, and women like you paid the price. If you were assaulted during a ride, find out what your options are.
Child Abuse
If you were abused as a child, it’s never too late to start to heal, and many states have extended filing deadlines. We can help you explore your options, even if the abuse occurred decades ago.
Roblox® Sexual Abuse
Online platforms like Roblox® and Discord® are accused of allowing predators to harm children. If you or your child has suffered, we’re ready to offer the support you need.
Mesothelioma and Asbestos-Related Diseases
Every year, women develop illnesses like mesothelioma and lung cancer as a result of exposure to asbestos. Don’t blame yourself if you’ve been diagnosed — manufacturers hid the risks of asbestos for decades, letting you and others get sick to make money.
Mesothelioma
The only known cause of mesothelioma is asbestos exposure. Many women may have been exposed through jobs, fibers that loved ones unknowingly brought home, or consumer products like talc and makeup contaminated with asbestos
Lung Cancer
If you’re facing lung cancer, it may have been caused by asbestos. Thousands of women across the country have been diagnosed, and the risk is higher among those who smoked. We can help determine if asbestos caused your diagnosis.
Talcum Powder and Cancer
Women trusted baby powder for decades, using it on themselves and their children. However, talc was often contaminated with asbestos, causing users to suffer mesothelioma and ovarian cancer.
Birth Injuries & Medical Malpractice
You trusted your medical team to provide quality care for you and your baby throughout your pregnancy. But in far too many cases, negligence leads to lifelong birth injuries like cerebral palsy. We’re here to help you understand what happened — and fight for a better future for your little one
Birth Injury Malpractice
No mother should have to deal with a birth injury that could have been prevented. We’ll listen to what happened and help you move forward if malpractice occurred.
Cerebral Palsy
At first, mothers may not realize that cerebral palsy may be the result of medical negligence during labor or delivery. Trust your gut — we’ll work with you to pursue the support you deserve.
Erb’s Palsy
When a baby’s shoulder gets stuck during delivery, one wrong move can cause lasting nerve damage. Your child didn’t deserve to suffer from Erb’s palsy, but we can help you navigate the next steps.
Dangerous Products, Drugs & Devices
If it’s on the shelf or available to buy, it should be tested for safety, but that’s not always the case. Products like birth control shots, hernia mesh, and implantable ports have caused serious complications, or even death, in women who trusted them.
It wasn’t your fault, and yet companies continue to shirk responsibility for the trauma they’ve caused. You deserve to make your voice heard. We’ll have your back.
Depo-Provera®
For decades, millions of women relied on Depo-Provera® shots for birth control. What they didn’t know was that taking the Depo shot for over a year can increase the risk of meningiomas, a type of brain or spinal tumor, by over 5 times.
Bard® PowerPort™
The Bard® PowerPort™ is a port that delivers treatment into the bloodstream. It’s often used for chemotherapy, IV fluids, or blood transfusions. But the catheter can break down in the body, causing injuries or infections.
Hernia Mesh
When you got the mesh, you thought you were fixing your hernia problem. For many women though, it was the start of worsening health issues from chronic pain, repeat surgeries, and more. Don’t suffer in silence — we’re ready to help you.
More Ways We Take a Stand to Help Women
We’re proud to be a comprehensive resource for women who were harmed. Who got sick through no fault of their own. Who were exploited, abused, mistreated, and manipulated.
We’re ready to listen to your story and offer support for your specific situation — so you can start to heal and get legal justice for what happened.
We may be able to help if you suffered harmed linked to:
Car accidents
Hair straighteners
Medical malpractice
Personal injuries
Workplace injuries
Disability Insurance Denial
You paid into insurance fairly. You filed your claim in good faith after a disability. Yet your insurance company denied you. This is a reality that women all over the U.S. face, and in many cases, the denial was issued in bad faith.
Bad Faith Disability Denials
Denial of any well-deserved benefits, including social security disability insurance (SSDI), VA benefits, or private insurance packages, can be devastating. We can help you appeal the denial to get the benefits you deserve.
Long-Term Disability Denial
Long-term disability (LTD) insurance is incredibly helpful for women who are suffering, but more and more companies resort to dirty tricks and tactics to keep profits up. We can fight an LTD denial, so you can get your benefits.
Elder & Nursing Home Abuse
Aging women deserve the best care possible, whether that’s from a live-in caregiver, their loved ones, or a nursing home. Sometimes, though, women experience horrific instances of abuse or neglect from the very people who were supposed to care for them.
How Elder Abuse Impacts Women
Over 65% of elder abuse victims are women, and anyone, from caregivers, family members, or even strangers, could be perpetrators. Learn how to spot the signs of abuse and protect an older woman you love.
Women & Nursing Home Abuse
You trusted a nursing home to provide expert care for your mother, your grandmother, your sister. Yet, every year, women are subjected to physical assaults, serious neglect, and even sexual battery in nursing homes.

They constantly reached out to make sure I was okay and doing better, with no strings attached. That made me feel comforted, and like they genuinely cared about me.
