Justice for Students

If you're a college student charged with misconduct, you can be sure the deck is stacked against you. Universities have no problem stomping on student rights. They're far more interested in how they look than in whether or not they treat you fairly.

If you're school's trying to tread on your freedoms, don't let them get away with it. Call the Lento Law Firm at 888-535-3686 or take time right now to explain what's happening.

You Have Rights, No Matter the Charges

College ain't what it used to be. Most schools are run by administrators with no sense of humor. Elite professors have no tolerance for anyone with a different opinion. And your rights to individual freedoms and liberty? Forget it. Getting through can be like navigating a minefield.

What do you do when a bomb goes off under your feet? Every day, students find themselves charged with

  • Academic misconduct like cheating and plagiarism
  • Simple disciplinary offenses like trespassing, vandalism, and disorderly conduct
  • Sexual harassment and other kinds of sexual misconduct
  • General harassment over simply expressing their views
  • Underage drinking
  • Hazing
  • Weapons possession

If you don't fit the mold, if you don't toe the line, you're a target. Faculty, administrators, and other students will single you out. You're more likely to find yourself accused of a misconduct offense, more likely to suffer harsh treatment during an investigation, more likely to be found Responsible (guilty) at a campus hearing, and more likely to be slapped with a harsh sanction, like suspension or outright dismissal.

If you don't have the right help on your side, your university can trample your rights, and no one will ever hold them accountable.
