Human Trafficking Lawsuits

Human trafficking is a devastating crime that exploits vulnerable individuals through force, fraud, or coercion for labor, sex, or other purposes. Survivors of human trafficking often endure physical, emotional, and psychological trauma that can last a lifetime. At Phillips Law Group, we are committed to holding traffickers, businesses that enable them, and other entities accountable for their role in perpetuating these crimes, and one way to do so is through human trafficking lawsuits.

Pursuing Human Trafficking Lawsuits

Human trafficking lawsuits can be filed against a range of defendants, including traffickers, employers, hotels, transportation companies, and online platforms that knowingly or negligently facilitate trafficking. For instance, in June 2024, two civil lawsuits were filed on behalf of anonymous sex trafficking victims in Colorado’s U.S. District Court against a Motel 6 in Fort Collins, owned by D Fort Hotel, LLC, and a Days Inn by Wyndham in Colorado Springs, owned by Santos and Brother Inc., according to local media outlet 9News.

These cases can involve claims of negligence, civil rights violations, or violations of federal laws such as the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA). Under TVPRA, for example, survivors can seek damages from entities that knowingly benefit from trafficking. And through civil litigation, survivors can seek compensation for medical expenses, therapy, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
