The "Missing" Piece
Finding the right lawyer should feel like finding the last piece to a jigsaw puzzle.
Law firms are very different, both in their capabilities and personalities. Without the right help for you, taking on a legal challenge can leave you feeling isolated and overwhelmed. Let us show you how “right” it can be.
Sexual abuse by someone you trust can shake your core beliefs. Even before you are aware of what happened to you, it can impact your life and relationships, and cause you to doubt your judgment.
The lawyers of McGrath Kavinoky have helped hundreds of women understand what happened, and to place the responsibility squarely where it belongs – with the aggressors and those who enabled them. Taking legal action can be an important step toward forgiving yourself, healing and rebuilding your ability to trust.
Together we win.®
Finding the right lawyer shouldn’t be a puzzle.
UCLA’s OB/GYN Scandal
UCLA gynecologist Dr. James Heaps was once a respected and highly paid physician. On June 10, 2019, Heaps was arrested for multiple felony sex offenses for abuse during exams. More than one hundred brave women have since come forward to declare they too were survivors of Dr. Heaps.
UCLA now says they are “deeply sorry that a former member of our staff violated our policies and standards, our trust, and the trust of his patients.”
However, as contended in our lawsuits, UCLA chose to ignore repeated reports from women who were abused over decades. UCLA must be held accountable for its choice to put women in harm’s way instead of stopping the abuse.
.
We are now accepting cases of women who allege abuse by Dr. Barry Brock and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
We are proud to announce the settlement for our 312 clients in the case against UC Regents and Dr. James Heaps of UCLA for $374.4 million dollars.
