What Is Title IX?
Title IX is a federal law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in educational programs receiving federal funding. Schools are required to investigate complaints of sexual harassment, sexual assault, and related misconduct. The process can feel one-sided — schools have institutional interests that may not align with yours. You have the right to an advisor, and that advisor can be an attorney.
Act Immediately
Title IX investigations move quickly. Schools have institutional interests that may not align with yours. You have the right to an advisor — and that advisor can be an attorney. Do not navigate this process alone.
