maclaren hall case history
1984
Maclaren has been the target of many lawsuits and abuse allegations in the past, with public outcry over the Probation Department’s treatment of children. In 1984, many employees at MacLaren were arrested for crimes committed against children in their care.
2019
In 2019, California passed the California Child Victims Act. It took effect in January 2020. It provides a “look back” window of three years, allowing childhood sexual abuse victims in California to file a lawsuit against their abuser and other responsible parties, regardless of how long ago the abuse happened.
2020
A new legal action in 2020 state law set up a three-year window in California for victims of childhood sexual abuse to seek out redress for past incidents. “The history of allegations of abuse at MacLaren Hall is not lost on us and drives me every day to see through critical reforms for the over 30,000 children in our child welfare system,” said Hilda Solis, the County Supervisor who oversees the district MacLaren was in.

why should I seek a lawyer for my auto accident?
Navigating the aftermath of an auto accident can be overwhelming, especially when you're coping with injuries, negotiating with insurance companies, and facing a mountain of paperwork. Insurance providers are adept at minimizing payouts, often offering settlements quickly to avoid larger claims. A lawyer can level the playing field, using their expertise to assess the full extent of your claim, including potential long-term impacts on your health and finances.
Auto accident law is complex and varies significantly by state. Without legal expertise, crucial deadlines, document submissions, and procedural requirements can be easily missed or misunderstood, potentially undermining your case.
An auto accident isn't just a claim; it's a personal crisis that impacts your life and the lives of your loved ones. When you're injured, your main focus should be on recovery, not on legal battles. A lawyer acts as your personal advocate, focusing on fighting for your rights while you focus on healing. With their support, you can confront insurance companies and responsible parties effectively.
