Pintas & Mullins, a law firm based in Chicago, wants to talk with potential victims and witnesses of abuse at WWE.
Background
The law firm, which advertises itself as “one of the nation’s leading law firms fighting sex abuse,” has launched a website at WWEsettlements.com where the site states that “If you were sexually assaulted, made to feel uncomfortable, or witnessed sexual abuse by Vince McMahon or anyone from WWE/UFC, you may be entitled to significant compensation.”

Description
“WWE Founder Vince McMahon Under Investigation for Exploitation and Sex Trafficking
Vince McMahon and WWE/UFC are under investigation for sexual assault and sex trafficking after former employees of WWE/UFC came forward with allegations of profoundly disturbing misconduct.
According to a recent lawsuit, the founder and other leaders forced employees to participate in sexual acts by threatening to terminate their employment and share intimate images of them.
This is not the first time Vince McMahon or WWE/UFC have faced accusations of sex abuse.
- In 1992, Rita Chatterton, the first female referee, came forward with allegations that she was raped by Vince McMahon while traveling with him in his limousine.
- In 2022, investigators seized documents and discovered nondisclosure agreements and multi-million dollar payouts covering up sexual misconduct.
Thousands of abuse victims are speaking up every year to receive the compensation and justice they deserve. Fill in the form above or call us today for a confidential and free conversation with one of our female attorneys.”
The firm notes it specializes in personal injury claims and has been in operation for over 35 years. Pintas & Mullins also assisted Ben Crump Law, the family of George Floyd following his wrongful death after being killed by former Minnesota police officer Derek Chauvin.
