If you find yourself the subject of a Title IX investigation at a college or university in Connecticut, it's critical to take the necessary steps before meeting with the school. Schools are often in a rush to judgment. Schools unfortunately do not put the respondent's interests or concerns first. A school will often invite a meeting without providing the requisite notice or to make a accused student understand just what is at stake. Tell your parents. Do not talk to your friends. Make certain that you have an experienced attorney advisor in your corner from this stage forward. It's critical in terms of trying to maximize the prospect of a favorable outcome.
