Massachusetts Title IX Defense Attorney
Get the Experienced Counsel You Need: 737-200-2332
If you're a student accused of misconduct, you need a licensed attorney in the state where the alleged misconduct took place so that you can receive vitally important, complete legal counseling. Title IX cases are highly complex, and they require thoughtful legal guidance that covers all the issues associated with Title IX law, the student misconduct disciplinary process, and potential criminal charges. Be aware that you will not have the protections of attorney-client confidentiality if you share information with a non-lawyer Title IX "advisor" who was made available by the institution. This is incredibly important if you share details about your Title IX case, which could be the focus of a criminal investigation, prosecution, or a civil claim.
