An evening worth celebrating.

Members of the GGH team came out to celebrate Partner Steven Vanderporten as he received Chicago Law Bulletin Media’s 2026 40 Under Forty Award.

It was a privilege to be there as Steve was recognized alongside some of Illinois’ most accomplished attorneys under 40 — and to celebrate a distinction that reflects the skill, dedication and commitment he brings to his clients and his work every day.

Congratulations again, Steve, on this well-deserved recognition!

GGH was proud to be part of the 2026 National Center for Victims of Crime conference in Chicago, joining advocates, survivors and leaders from across the country working to protect victims and advance justice.

GGH Founding Partner Martin Gould joined veteran investigative journalist Chris Hansen and GGH clients and online safety advocates Michael Schlep and his mother for a panel examining child safety on Roblox and the growing concerns surrounding how predators can use online platforms to target and exploit children.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this important conversation and connect with so many national advocates and organizations committed to supporting crime victims, strengthening protections and creating meaningful change.

25 years ago today, our country experienced a tragedy of immeasurable damage, heartache, and loss that forever changed thousands of families and communities across the nation.

Today, we pause to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001; to honor the first responders and others who demonstrated extraordinary courage; and to recognize the families, friends, and loved ones who have carried the weight of that loss for the past 25 years.

Their stories, their sacrifice, and their lives will never be forgotten.

For the first time, two survivors are speaking publicly about the sexual abuse they say they endured as children inside the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center.

Both women told CBS News Chicago they were just 15-years-old and pregnant when they were sexually assaulted by staff members while in custody.

Their stories are part of a much larger reckoning. Hundreds of former residents — both girls and boys — have come forward with allegations of sexual abuse by detention center staff spanning decades, with approximately 400 lawsuits now filed against the detention center, Cook County, and the Cook County Chief Judge’s Office.

GGH is leading the litigation on behalf of survivors and continues to investigate how alleged abuse was allowed to persist inside a facility responsible for protecting children in its custody.

Chicago was home base for the trial bar this summer — and GGH was glad to be part of it.

From taking the stage to connecting with colleagues from across the country, the 2026 AAJ Annual Convention was a chance for our team to contribute to the conversations moving our profession forward — right here in our hometown.

Founding Partners Martin Gould, Michael Grieco, and Bryce Hensley took the stage throughout the convention, sharing insights from their work leading complex litigation and advocating for survivors and injury victims nationwide.

The convention also marked two special recognitions: Martin was elected Vice Chair of AAJ’s Child Sexual Abuse Litigation Committee, and Mike received the Evergreen Recognition for his continued commitment and contributions to AAJ.

We’re grateful to the American Association for Justice for another impactful convention and to everyone who spent part of the week with GGH.

New details are raising serious questions about the death of GGH client Bluesky Thomas while in the care of Sonora Behavioral Health Hospital.

GGH Partner Jennifer Cascio spoke with The Arizona Republic about newly released records surrounding Thomas’ death. Jennifer said his injuries were comparable to those sustained in a high-speed car crash or severe physical assault — not a fall or seizure.

The medical examiner ruled Thomas’ death a homicide, yet a manslaughter charge against a former hospital employee in connection with his death was dismissed after a judge found insufficient evidence to move the criminal case forward.

GGH represents Thomas’ family in its forthcoming civil case against Sonora Behavioral Health and its parent company, Acadia Healthcare, as they continue to seek answers and accountability.
