If a minor in your family was harmed by addictive social media platform design, you may qualify for compensation.
Lawsuits against major social media platforms — including Meta/Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube — allege the companies designed addictive features aimed at young users without adequate safeguards, contributing to documented mental-health harm in minors.
The litigation includes both individual/family claims and lawsuits brought by nearly 30 state attorneys general.

The federal litigation is consolidated as MDL 3047, with over 2,800 cases pending as of July 2026. TikTok and Snap reached confidential settlements with a bellwether plaintiff in January 2026, and YouTube and TikTok settled ahead of a separate bellwether trial set for late July 2026. Meta, in contrast, remains in active litigation — a judge denied its bid to dismiss the case brought by state attorneys general, and in March 2026 a Los Angeles jury found Meta and YouTube negligent in the litigation's first trial, awarding $6 million. The next bellwether trial in the state attorneys-general track is expected around August 2026.
Yes — in March 2026, a Los Angeles jury found Meta and YouTube negligent in the first trial to reach a verdict in this litigation and awarded $6 million. TikTok and Snap have also reached confidential settlements in related bellwether cases, though Meta itself has not yet settled.
