Isla Vista Fraternity Sexual Assault — Your Civil Rights Under California Law If you or someone you love was sexually assaulted at a fraternity in Isla Vista, the first thing we need you to hear is this: none of it was your fault. Not the party. Not the alcohol. Not what you wore. Not whether you fought back, froze, or could not remember every detail in the right order. The law in California is built to protect you, not to punish you for the circumstances the assault happened inside of. And the civil justice system — the part we control — gives you a path to hold accountable not just the person who hurt you, but every institution that created the conditions for it and profited from the culture around it. We are Attorney911, The Manginello Law Firm. Ralph Manginello has spent 27-plus years in courtrooms, including federal court, and right now he is the lead counsel in an active $10 million fraternity hazing lawsuit against a university and a national fraternity chapter. Lupe Peña spent years inside a national insurance-defense firm — the rooms where adjusters and their lawyers decided how to deny, delay, and devalue claims — before…

San Diego State University Hazing: Your Rights Under California’s Matt’s Law The phone call every parent fears starts with a silence they can’t explain. When a student at San Diego State University is injured during a fraternity ritual, the damage goes far beyond the physical. It is a fundamental betrayal of trust by an organization that promised brotherhood but delivered brutality. If your child has been a victim of hazing at SDSU, specifically within the former Kappa Sigma chapter or any other Greek organization, we understand that you are looking for more than just a settlement—you are looking for accountability. In California, these incidents are not treated as “boys being boys” or simple accidents. They are governed by one of the strongest anti-hazing statutes in the country. We work to ensure that the organizations that permit these cultures of violence are held responsible for the lifetime of trauma they cause. The Power of Matt’s Law in California California law provides a specific civil path for victims of hazing. Under the California Penal Code, hazing is defined as any method of initiation or preinitiation into a student organization that is likely to cause serious bodily injury. “A person who is a…

Berkeley, Alameda County, California Fraternity Drowning Lawsuits: Holding Organizations Accountable for the Loss of a Student When a student goes off to a university like UC Berkeley, their family expects the institution and its associated organizations to provide a baseline of safety. When a tragedy happens at a social event—specifically an event where overcrowding and a total lack of supervision turn a party into a death trap—it isn’t just an accident.

The Betrayal at UC Riverside: When a Pledging Ritual Becomes a Fatal Wrongful Death You are living through the ultimate institutional betrayal. You sent your son to a university with the expectation that he would be educated and protected, only to have that trust shattered by a secretive culture of violence that the school was warned about and failed to stop. When a student at UC Riverside collapses at Mount Roubidoux after five weeks of nightly physical abuse, it is not an accident. It is the end result of a system that prioritized fraternity traditions over human life. In Riverside, Riverside County, California, we see how large organizations—both the university system and national fraternities—attempt to distance themselves from these tragedies the moment they occur. They will call it a “risk management concern” or point to a medical examiner’s report about a heart anomaly. We are here to tell you that under California law, those excuses do not erase the responsibility for a wrongful death. When you are standing in the wreckage of your child’s future, you need more than an “investigation” by the people who failed you. You need a trial team that knows how to peel back the layers…

Woodland, California I-5 Dump Truck Fatality: Beyond the “Solo Crash” Label If you are reading this after the crash on Interstate 5 south of Main Street, you are likely facing a void that no police report can fill. When the California Highway Patrol announces a “solo vehicle rollover” involving a commercial Peterbilt, the insurance companies for the carrier and the manufacturers immediately begin building a defense based on one word: “driver error.” We are here to tell you that in our experience, a professional driver in a heavy-duty truck rarely just leaves a straight, level lane of travel for no reason. The Woodland stretch of I-5 is a critical freight corridor, connecting the Central Valley’s agricultural engine to the Pacific Northwest. It is a road characterized by high-speed commercial traffic and, frequently, heavy crosswinds that can destabilize high-profile vehicles like dump trucks. When a Peterbilt dump truck veers off the southbound lanes and rolls on the right shoulder, the “solo” nature of the crash is not the end of the story—it is the beginning of a deep-dive mechanical and environmental audit. We don’t take the initial news reports as the final word. We look for the mechanical trigger—the steering linkage…

The Woodland I-5 Dump Truck Fatality: Finding Answers for Your Family If you are reading this after losing a loved one in the rollover on Interstate 5 in Woodland, we know the pain you are carrying is beyond words. When a commercial dump truck leaves the road and rolls over, the immediate reports often focus on the driver. But as trial attorneys who work through these tragedies every day, we know that the person behind the wheel is often the last link in a long chain of corporate failures. A single-vehicle crash involving a commercial truck is rarely “just an accident.” It is the result of a system that failed. Whether it was a steering component that snapped because it was never inspected, or a load of aggregate that was piled too high and too unevenly, your family deserves to know why that truck ended up on its side near the Woodland interchanges. Our goal is to protect you from the insurance companies already circling this case and to find the truth hidden in the maintenance logs and black box data. Why Dump Truck Rollovers on I-5 Are Rarely “Just Accidents” The stretch of Interstate 5 running through Woodland and…

Roundup non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Litigation — Attorney911 Pursues Bayer AG for Glyphosate Cancer Claims in Pasadena and Los Angeles County, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice & Avvo-Rated Excellent 8.2, We Litigate California Design-Defect & Fraudulent-Concealment Theories to Counter the SCOTUS Preemption Ruling, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How Global Agrochemical Manufacturers Value Claims, Preserving Pathology Evidence and Exposure Logs from Devil’s Gate Dam and Caltech Institutional Landscapes, Millions Recovered in Catastrophic Injury Cases, the Statute of Limitations Is Running — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

The Pasadena Roundup Ruling: Why This “Major Blow” Is Not a Defeat for Your Cancer Claim If you are sitting at a kitchen table in Pasadena today, looking at a folder of oncology bills and a headline that says the U.S. Supreme Court just dealt a “major blow” to Roundup lawsuits, we want you to take a breath. The news sounds like a door slamming shut, but as trial attorneys who move through these courtrooms every day, we see a very different reality. The 7-2 ruling from the high court focused on a technical legal concept called “preemption.” The court held that because the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved the label on Roundup, federal law (FIFRA) prevents you from suing the company for “failing to warn” you about cancer on that same label. They are trying to use the federal government as a shield to hide the truth about glyphosate. But here is what the headline misses: failing to warn is only one door. At Attorney911, we have spent decades finding the doors that corporate lawyers forget to lock. While the “bad label” argument just got harder, the “bad product” argument remains as strong as ever. If you worked at…
