Title IX Lawyers for Student Representation
If you’re facing a Title IX investigation, having a skilled Title IX lawyer on your side can make all the difference in protecting your rights and future.
At Payne, Powell, Truitt, and Chandler, we understand the profound impact that Title IX allegations can have on students and their families. Title 9 is a federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in educational settings, including sexual harassment and assault. If your child or family member is facing a Title IX investigation at Texas Tech or any other university, it’s essential to have an experienced title IX lawyer by your side to protect their rights and future.
What is Title IX?
Title IX, enacted in 1972, ensures equal opportunities for all students, regardless of gender, in educational institutions that receive federal funding. While Title IX was originally created to prevent discrimination based on sex, it has expanded to cover allegations related to sexual harassment, assault, and gender-based violence. Schools are required by law to respond to such allegations swiftly and fairly, conducting investigations and hearings that can significantly impact a student’s academic and personal life.
