$5BSocial media addiction: who may have a claim?Meta (then Facebook) agreed to pay $5 billion to settle FTC allegations of privacy violations stemming from the Cambridge Analytica scandal and broader deceptive data practices. The settlement — the largest privacy penalty in history — established that Meta's business model systematically prioritized data collection and engagement over user privacy and protection. The settlement required Meta to implement new privacy governance structures, but critics noted the penalty represented less than one month of Meta's revenue and failed to change the company's fundamental business model.META/FACEBOOK FTC PRIVACY SETTLEMENT · SETTLEMENT · JUL 24, 2019

$1.19BAFFF firefighting foam claims: what to checkDuPont, Chemours, and Corteva agreed to a $1.185 billion settlement to resolve water utility claims related to PFAS contamination from DuPont's fluorochemical manufacturing. The settlement was approved by the federal court in February 2024.

$300,000,000Sex abuse claims in the Catholic ChurchThe Archdiocese of New York established a $300 million voluntary compensation fund in September 2025 to resolve approximately 1,300 survivor claims without a bankruptcy filing. The fund was administered by an independent claims administrator and used a structured point-based matrix to assign compensation amounts based on abuse severity, duration, survivor age at time of abuse, and institutional knowledge factors. The Archdiocese of New York's fund represents one of the largest voluntary (non-bankruptcy) settlement funds in clergy abuse history and demonstrates that direct negotiation outside the bankruptcy process can produce significant survivor compensation.ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK COMPENSATION FUND · SETTLEMENT · SEP 2025 · NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK

The settlement covered claims from hundreds of survivors of abuse by Rochester diocesan clergy. The Diocese of Rochester's bankruptcy was among the first filed in response to the Child Victims Act lookback window and helped establish the template for subsequent diocesan bankruptcies across the country. The settlement demonstrated that New York's lookback window legislation succeeded in providing compensation to survivors who had been legally barred from filing for decades.DIOCESE OF ROCHESTER BANKRUPTCY SETTLEMENT · SETTLEMENT · JUL 2025 · MONROE COUNTY, NEW YORK

At the time, it was the largest COPPA enforcement action in history.GOOGLE/YOUTUBE COPPA SETTLEMENT · SETTLEMENT · SEP 4, 2019
$150,000,000Sex abuse claims in the Catholic ChurchThe Diocese of Buffalo settled approximately 900 clergy abuse claims for $150 million following its 2020 Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, which was directly triggered by claim volume generated by New York's Child Victims Act (2019). The Buffalo settlement is notable for the scale of its survivor community — nearly 900 claimants — and for the Diocese's release of a comprehensive list of credibly accused clergy prior to settlement. Buffalo remains an active litigation market for claims against individual defendants not covered by the diocesan settlement, and survivors may have additional options under New York's March 2026 lookback window.DIOCESE OF BUFFALO SETTLEMENT — 900 CLAIMS · SETTLEMENT · APR 2023 · ERIE COUNTY, NEW YORK

EA contested the fine, and the Dutch Council of State overturned it in March 2022 on jurisdictional grounds, finding that the gambling authority’s enforcement was not properly authorized under the applicable statute.

$6,500,000Work site injury: what can I do?A 34-year-old laborer was killed when the walls of an 8-foot-deep utility trench collapsed without warning, burying him under approximately 4 tons of soil and clay.

The general contractor was aware that workers were in the unprotected trench and failed to stop work. OSHA cited the excavation contractor for willful violations and imposed maximum penalties. The GC and excavation contractor each settled after the OSHA willful violation citations were admitted into evidence, establishing near-conclusive negligence.
