In August 2023, severe drought and Hurricane Dora's winds fueled devastating wildfires on Maui. Over three days, 19,000 acres burned, claiming over 100 lives and leaving 3,000 pets missing.

Early investigations indicate that Hawaiian Electric's faulty power lines were a major factor. Despite being aware of the risks, postponed maintenance worsened the situation.

Facing potential bankruptcy, Hawaiian Electric blames Maui County for declaring the fire extinguished prematurely. Legal issues remain, prompting survivors to find specialized U.S. wildfire attorneys for help.

If you've suffered losses from the Maui fire, consider seeking a U.S. mass tort wildfire attorney, particularly one prepared to handle a mass tort bankruptcy claim.

CROWNSVILLE, Md., March 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ASK LLP and Goldman & Van Beek have filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County on behalf of a former patient of Crownsville State Hospital, alleging repeated r**e and s*xual abuse by an employee dating back to 2006.

The complaint accuses the state of Maryland of failing to prevent the abuse and aims to shed light on systemic issues within the facility.

"But they were asking for it" is a distressingly common phrase surrounding s*xual assault. It's a damaging sentiment that insinuates that a victim invited or deserved the abuse they experienced. There is never a valid justification for such heinous acts, regardless of how someone behaves, dresses, or presents themselves. This dangerous misconception perpetuates victim-blaming culture via social media, evening news, movies and even personal relationships. No one deserves to be subjected to any form of s*xual abuse, regardless of any circumstances. Sexual abuse is a crime. Crimes are committed by dysregulated persons who use violence to harm and violate others. Being the target of s*xual abuse means this – you were violated, you were harmed by no fault of your own.

New York-based attorney Judie Saunders, a partner with ASK LLP specializing in cases involving s*xual abuse and misconduct, emphasizes the significance of lawsuits like these, stating, "Fear and violence are the most effective tools used to silence survivors.

Those tools will only lose their efficacy when managers, artists, producers, composers, set designers, dancers, stylists, and others within the music industry serve as witnesses, litigants, and advocates."

In her analysis of the case Judie Saunders underscores the gravity of the allegations and the impact of the Adult Survivors Act on such matters. She highlights the courage required for survivors to come forward, especially when facing influential figures.

Today, we make a stand against the cycle of s*xual abuse—a cycle that has caused pain and suffering for too many.

If you or someone close to you has been affected by s*xual abuse, it’s crucial to understand that breaking this cycle starts with speaking up and seeking support.

By reaching out for legal advice, we begin the process of holding perpetrators accountable, which is a vital step towards ending this cycle.

It’s about more than just addressing individual cases; it’s about changing a culture that too often looks the other way.

We’re committed to creating an environment where survivors feel supported and empowered to reclaim their voices.

Remember, stopping the cycle of abuse isn’t just the responsibility of those who have experienced it; it’s a collective effort that requires all of us to take action, offer support, and promote change.

We’re here to help guide you through this process. Together, we can make a difference.

Did you know the "Maui Recovery Fund" might be a quick fix that costs you more in the long run? While seemingly generous, this fund offers victims of devastating wildfires a settlement that may not fully cover their losses. More importantly, accepting this aid means giving up your right to hold those responsible accountable through legal action. And let's not forget, this doesn't even begin to cover the damage to homes and historic properties, nor does it compensate for the emotional turmoil many have endured. The truth is, the actual cost of this tragedy goes way beyond what's being offered. Those affected deserve justice and a settlement that truly reflects the depth of their loss. Don't settle for less. It's crucial to work with a law firm that understands the magnitude of this disaster and is committed to fighting for your rights. At ASK LLP and Recovery Law Center, we ensure you receive the comprehensive support and compensation you need. Don't navigate this alone; let us stand with you.
