Title IX and College Crimes

Protect your reputation and your future with an experienced Title IX attorney on your side.

Colleges and universities are under tremendous pressure to ensure that their students are protected from gender-based discrimination, harassment, and sexual misconduct. This is necessary not only for the sake of the school’s reputation, but also to ensure compliance with Title IX. Schools that are accused of non-compliance with this federal law risk losing their funding.

If you have been accused of a Title IX violation, you can expect your school to pursue the matter very aggressively. They may even show a bias towards you, seeming to consider you guilty even before the Title IX investigation and hearing have been completed. In order to ensure your rights are protected, it is extremely important to have a skilled and experienced Title IX defense attorney on your side.

Michael L. Fell Will Fight for You

At The Law Offices of Michael L. Fell, we understand how stigmatizing it can be to even be accused of a Title IX violation, much less found guilty by authorities at your school. That’s why we work hard to intervene as quickly as possible in your case and work out a fair and acceptable resolution.

From the moment you become aware of a Title IX complaint against you, Attorney Fell can begin working for your defense by:

  • Reviewing the accusation and/or evidence against you
  • Collecting evidence for your defense
  • Helping you prepare your testimony so you can tell your side of the story without accidentally admitting information that could be used against you in a criminal case
  • Advising you on how to present yourself and conduct yourself at the hearing
  • Providing his honest opinion as to the advisability of admitting guilt in exchange for more lenient discipline
