Navigating Title IX And Disciplinary Hearings In Texas
College campuses are governed by Title IX, a federal law that prohibits discrimination based on sex. It encompasses allegations related to sexual assault, harassment or relationship violence.
If you are facing Title IX accusations, rest assured that you have the right to a fair hearing and legal representation. We can guide you through the intricate Title IX process and safeguard your rights during disciplinary hearings.
