Nevada families live in a state of contrasts: the round-the-clock energy of Las Vegas and Henderson, the growing neighborhoods of Reno and Sparks, and remote towns like Elko and Ely where services are few and far between. In every one of those places, kids are growing up on TikTok and Instagram, and some have been badly hurt by it.
Our firm is just across the state line in California, and we work with Nevada families by phone and video so you never have to leave home. We will also come to you when meeting in person helps. Cases are filed in MDL 3047 in the Northern District of California or in the appropriate state court, with Nevada-licensed local counsel where required.
TikTok and social media litigation in Nevada
Nevada sued TikTok over youth addiction. In November 2025, the Nevada Supreme Court allowed the case to proceed.
How a TikTok Lawsuit Works for Nevada Families
Lawsuits against TikTok claim the company designed its app to keep kids hooked — through the endless For You feed, autoplay, constant notifications and appearance filters — while offering weak age checks and parental controls, and without warning families about risks its own research identified. Learn how TikTok's design hooks kids.
Most personal injury cases are filed in, or transferred to, the federal multidistrict litigation in the Northern District of California (MDL No. 3047), where pretrial matters are handled together. Federal courts in Nevada include the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada. Some cases are better suited to state court. We'll explain the options for your family.
