What should I do if I am a complainant in a Title IX case at a school or college in Texas? VIDEO

In April of 2024, the Department of Education approved New Title IX rules, which are scheduled to take effect on August 1, 2024. Our firm is closely monitoring ongoing challenges to these new rules in court, and is working hard to provide you the most up-to-date information. Click here to learn about the current state of Title IX and how we can help if you are involved in a Title IX case.

If you are the complainant in a Title IX case at a school or college in Texas, you need to fully understand the process the school will use to investigate the complaint involving sexual harassment or sexual misconduct. As the complainant, in light of the Title IX Final rule, it's critical to have the support of someone to represent you through the process, who's solely dedicated to protecting your rights and interests.

It's critical to make certain that the school does a full and fair and complete investigation, and thoroughly and appropriately evaluate the complaint to make certain that justice is obtained. You need to make certain that the school follows all Title IX rules, and if it does not do so, you need to understand that action can be taken against the school to address such a concern.

An experienced attorney-advisor will be your best ally to help you understand and navigate the Title IX process, and they should be involved from as early as possible in the case.
