Levy Konigsberg Fights for Justice with Over 800 Maryland Juvenile Abuse Lawsuits Filed Amidst New Restrictions
Levy Konigsberg Files Over 800 Abuse Lawsuits in Maryland
In a significant legal move, Levy Konigsberg has announced the filing of over 800 lawsuits in Maryland regarding sexual abuse incidents within the state's juvenile detention system. This comes on the heels of impending amendments to the Maryland Child Victims Act (CVA), which are set to take effect on June 1, 2025. Legal experts and advocates are urging survivors to come forward before these changes dramatically limit their rights to compensation.
A Wave of Legal Action
The latest filing includes more than 100 complaints made by survivors who were victims of sexual abuse while confined in Maryland’s juvenile facilities. The issues highlighted within these lawsuits span decades and involve allegations that correctional officers and other staff exploited their authority to commit heinous acts against vulnerable minors.
Attorney Jerome Block of Levy Konigsberg expressed outrage over the State's legislative actions, which he claims aim to reduce accountability for the abuse that has been systemic across the juvenile detention centers.
