You Need A Strong Defense In Title IX Actions

If you’re a student facing disciplinary proceedings under Title IX, you need a strong defense attorney on your side. Dealing with allegations of sexual harassment, sexual assault or other serious misconduct is something nobody should have to face alone.

Turn to our education lawyers at Bilello & Soowal, PLLC. We focus our practice on defending students’ rights in Florida school disciplinary proceedings, including Title IX. You will benefit from our extensive experience and in-depth knowledge of Title IX law. We know what’s at stake, and we won’t hesitate to fight for you.

What Are Title IX Actions?

Title IX is a federal law that requires certain schools to develop and uphold procedures for handling complaints of sexual harassment and sexual misconduct. A Title IX action refers to the disciplinary process for addressing those complaints. It also refers to court proceedings involving Title IX cases.

Students accused of sexual misconduct can face Title IX actions even if they’re never arrested or charged with an offense.

You Have Rights In Title IX Proceedings

Title IX guarantees students “due process” rights – which means that you must be treated fairly and afforded the opportunity to defend yourself. Your rights include:

  • The right to a neutral investigation by a competent investigator
  • The right to know the allegations against you
  • The right to an attorney
  • The right to a fair hearing before a neutral decision-maker
  • The right to appeal the decision

We can ensure that your rights are upheld at all stages of the disciplinary process.

Protecting You In Court

Title IX cases sometimes end up in court. If that’s the case, you can rely on our skilled trial lawyers to be strong advocates for you.

We also know how to address cases where a police investigation or criminal charges are underway. Our attorneys will work tirelessly to safeguard your reputation and future.
