Meta (Facebook & Instagram) lawsuits
If this happened to you or someone you love, you may be entitled to compensation. Reviewing your case is free and confidential.
About this litigation
Meta is a central defendant in the social-media harm litigation. Lawsuits allege that Facebook and Instagram were engineered to maximize engagement among teens at the expense of their mental health, and that Meta concealed what it knew about these harms.
You may qualify if…
- A child or teen used Facebook or Instagram heavily
- They suffered mental-health harm — depression, anxiety, eating disorders, self-harm, or worse
- The harm began while they were a minor

Who qualifies for the Meta lawsuit?
You may qualify if a child or teen used Facebook or Instagram heavily and suffered mental-health harm such as depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, or self-harm that began while they were a minor.
Is it too late to file a Meta claim?
The Meta litigation is active and accepting new claims as of 2026, but every claim has a filing deadline (statute of limitations) that varies by state and by when the injury was discovered. Because missing the deadline can permanently bar a claim, it is best to have your situation reviewed as soon as possible.
How much does it cost to have my case reviewed?
Nothing. Having Omid review your case is free and confidential, and these claims are handled on a contingency-fee basis, so you pay no fee unless compensation is recovered. Depending on the complexity of your case, it may be referred with your approval to a firm with the national resources to handle it, and that same no-fee promise still applies.
Depending on the complexity of your case, it may be referred — with your approval — to a firm with the national resources to give it the attention it deserves. You’ll always be informed first, and the promise stays the same: no fee unless you recover.
