Campus Legal Problems

The idyllic image of college campuses – bucolic scenery and fun, new experiences – and student hopes and dreams can quickly turn into the stuff of nightmares.

Behind the college facade, our law firm has helped Virginia students and college employees confront all kinds of problems that crop up on campus.  

Our lawyers have extensive experience in Title IX and campus sexual assault. We’ve represented both women and men, victims of sexual assault and those accused of it. Find out if we practice at your college or university.     

Sometimes hazing incidents at fraternities and sororities can have deadly consequences – and even lead to wrongful death law suits. Our attorneys have filed law suits in Virginia stemming from serious incidents that have occurred on college campuses, and we’re eager to fight for justice for you.     

Criminal charges involving alcohol, such as DUI or public intoxication, can have ruinous consequences for your career after graduation, and you must take these charges seriously.

Have you been discriminated against in your employment or wrongly disciplined or terminated by a Virginia college or university? 

Maybe your social media use has gotten you into hot water and you need someone to stand up for your First Amendment rights and defend your reputation on campus and in the media?

We are an accomplished group of women attorneys – and polished courtroom litigators – who will aggressively represent you, with both justice and equal protection as goals.   

Our attorneys are very familiar with college and university processes, having represented clients in university employment actions as well as serving as past counsel to a university’s campus police force.
