Experienced Title IX Defense for College Students

If you’re a college student who has been accused of a Title IX violation, the consequences can be devastating. Your academic transcript, career, personal, and professional reputation are all at risk. At Spodek Law Group, we understand the importance of defending against allegations of misconduct and providing diligent and assertive representation for our clients in the Title IX process and criminal proceedings.

Why Choose Spodek Law Group?

Unlike other law firms, we have more than a decade of experience defending the rights of students, athletes, faculty, coaches, and staff against allegations of Title IX violations. We are dedicated to ensuring that you receive the best possible legal representation and the outcome that you deserve. Our attorneys have a deep understanding of the law and exhibit professionalism in every aspect of your case.

Understanding Title IX

Title IX was passed in 1972 to provide equal access to programs and facilities in public or private schools that receive federal funding. While initially aimed at providing equal opportunities for men and women, the law has been expanded to include a requirement for schools to investigate reports of incidents of sexual misconduct. As a result, schools, colleges, and universities are required to conduct investigations and provide students accused of Title IX violations with a fair hearing.

Who Does Title IX Protect?

Title IX offers protections for those attending and working at:

• Elementary schools
• Middle schools
• High schools
• Colleges
• Universities
• Any institution receiving federal funding

Why You Need a Title IX Lawyer in New Jersey

At Spodek Law Group, we understand that the ramifications of a Title IX investigation can be devastating for your future. You could face expulsion from school, be denied admission to another college, university, or graduate program, and criminal charges may be filed at the end of the process. That is why you need a Title IX lawyer who understands the law and can provide legal guidance to ensure the protection of your rights and that justice is served throughout the proceedings.

Does Your Child Need a Title IX Attorney?

Almost all colleges and universities permit students accused of sexual misconduct to speak with an “advisor” during disciplinary proceedings. However, at Spodek Law Group, we believe that a student accused of a Title IX violation should use an advocate who is knowledgeable about the procedure and process, even if the advisor is not an attorney. Our attorneys have decades of litigation experience and can craft a substantive and forceful defense, ensuring that your child’s rights are protected throughout the process.

Legal Representation for Title IX Violations in New Jersey

The problem with these proceedings for the accused is that the college, university, or school district will have lawyers present, but won’t offer that to the student or athlete accused of the violation. This is a violation of your due process rights. At Spodek Law Group, we can advocate for you and ensure that your rights are protected throughout the process.

We represent clients accused of Title IX violations, such as:

• Sexual assault
• Rape
• Sexual harassment
• Gender discrimination
• Other forms of sexual violence

We advocate for our clients at every stage of the Title IX process to ensure that your legal rights and due process rights are protected. When there is a problem, such as a hearing engaged without adequate protection, behind closed doors, or through a mishandled investigation, we will take action to ensure that you are protected. Our attorneys will vigorously defend you and fight for your rights every step of the way.

A Vigorous Defense for Every Client

Under Title IX, every person accused of misconduct is entitled to a prompt, fair, and impartial investigation and resolution. The process is supposed to be kept confidential. Unfortunately, this does not always happen, and institutions may seek to retaliate against the accused for insisting on a proper investigation and hearing. At Spodek Law Group, we fight for your due process rights and ensure that your rights are protected.
