The Lanier Law Firm: A Leader in Social Media Addiction Litigation
The Lanier Law Firm is the first firm in the nation to try a social media addiction lawsuit on behalf of a bellwether plaintiff in Los Angeles Superior Court. This landmark case explored whether major social media platforms deliberately designed addictive features that may have contributed to the youth mental health crisis.
The Los Angeles County Superior Court jury in this case ordered Meta Platforms Inc. and Google’s YouTube to pay $3 million in punitive damages, combined with the jury’s earlier $3 million compensatory damages award. The total damages verdict secured by The Lanier Law Firm against the two companies stands at $6 million.
The Lanier Law Firm has been a leader in legal advocacy for many years, and this landmark case shows we remain at the forefront of social media addiction litigation, supported by an award-winning legal team that includes Michael Akselrud, Michelle Greene, Abigail Harris, and Sarah Lanier.
