If a complaint is made to your college or university of sexual assault or harassment, your school is legally required to investigate and punish such actions under Title IX. In a Title IX Sexual Violence case involving sexual misconduct, you may or may not also be charged with a crime. But even if you are not charged with a crime, the college or university will investigate and often move forward against you with the disciplinary process. The results can mean expulsion, loss of scholarship, suspension, probation, being banned from campus or student housing, being forced to move classes, and having a finding of sexual misconduct listed on your transcript.  

 You need an experienced defense attorney to help you defend yourself in the face of a Title IX Sexual Violence investigation and process.
