Child Victim Cases

Cases where a child was harmed by an adult who should never have had access to them — and where a company, institution, or platform helped make that access possible.

Attorney Mauricio Padilla

Where these cases come from

Children are rarely harmed at random. Most often an adult reaches them through something built by someone else: an app, a game, a program, an organization that was supposed to be supervising.

When that access was foreseeable and preventable, responsibility does not stop with the individual who caused the harm.

Matters the firm reviews

Roblox and online platform exploitation — grooming and solicitation through games and chat.
Abuse enabled by an organization with custody or supervision of a child.
Failures to screen, supervise, or act on prior complaints about an adult.
Institutional responses that concealed or minimized what happened.

What a family should expect

These cases move on the family’s timeline, not the firm’s. The first conversation is about what happened and what options exist — not about signing anything.

Where a criminal case is already underway, the civil claim is handled alongside it, and the child’s involvement is kept to the minimum the law requires.

Confidentiality

Consultations are confidential, in English or Spanish. Nothing proceeds without your decision.
