In December 2019, Pitt and a team of civil rights lawyers obtained an $80 million dollar settlement against the State of Michigan in a lawsuit involving inmates who were raped and abused as juveniles by adult prisoners in Michigan prisons.

Pitt was part of the legal team which won a record-breaking settlement of $100 million dollars for a group of several hundred female inmates who were sexually abused by male guards in Michigan prisons over a period of years (Neal vs. Michigan Department of Corrections).

Pitt is also co-lead counsel representing over 10,000 Flint residents in state and federal class-action lawsuits related to the Flint Water Crisis
