Legal Grounds for Claims

Product Liability - Defective Design

Roblox's platform design features allegedly facilitate child grooming and exploitation. Chat features, private messaging, and inadequate monitoring create unreasonable dangers for children.

Negligence

Failure to implement industry-standard safety measures, inadequate response to known risks, and insufficient protection of minor users despite marketing specifically to children.

Failure to Warn

Roblox failed to adequately warn parents about the serious risks of child exploitation, grooming, and predatory behavior on the platform.

Violation of Child Protection Laws

Multiple state and federal laws require platforms to protect children from known dangers. Roblox's alleged failures may constitute violations of these protections.

Important: Preserve Evidence

Take These Steps Immediately:

  • Screenshot all messages: Save chat logs before they're deleted
  • Document account details: Username, game history, dates/times
  • Save any reports: Keep copies of reports made to Roblox
  • Do not delete account: The account contains critical evidence
  • Medical/therapy records: Document psychological impact

Additional Helpful Documentation:

  • • Police reports (if filed)
  • • Communications with Roblox support
  • • School records showing behavioral changes
  • • Witness statements from other children
  • • Records of therapy or counseling

Common Questions

How long do I have to file a claim?

Statute of limitations varies by state, typically 2-6 years. Many states have extended limitations for child abuse cases. Some states pause the clock until the child turns 18. Consult with an attorney immediately to protect your rights.

Will my child's identity be protected?

Yes. Child victims are typically identified only as "Minor" or by initials in legal filings. Attorneys use confidentiality provisions and protective orders to safeguard your child's privacy.

What if we didn't report it to Roblox or police?

You may still have a valid claim. Many families don't report immediately due to shame, confusion, or fear. What matters is the harm that occurred and Roblox's failure to protect children, not whether you reported it.

Do I need to pay attorney fees upfront?

No. These cases are handled on contingency - attorneys only get paid if you receive compensation. Free case evaluations are available.

Can we sue the predator and Roblox?

Yes. You can pursue both the individual predator (if identified) and Roblox Corporation for failing to protect your child from known dangers on their platform.
