THE BEST LAWYER ANYONE COULD ASK FOR.

The BEST LAWYER ANYONE COULD ASK FOR!!! Todd changed our lives! He’s not JUST a lawyer representing us for a case. Todd and his office have become Family. When we entered his office in August of 2022, we entered with such anxiety, uncertainty, and so much stress. Honestly we were very lost. My husband and I felt alone. How could a lawyer who didn’t know us, know our family, know our background represents us, When this could change our lives for the next 5-7years that my husband was facing in Federal jail. By the time our free consultation was over with Todd, we left his office at ease. All our questions were answered and we had a sense of relief.

And we’re here to be the aggressive advocates you need to protect your future.

Understanding Title IX and Its Disciplinary Process

Before, we dive into our comprehensive defense approach, let’s cover some essential groundwork. Title IX is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on sex in any education program or activity receiving federal funding. It, encompasses issues like sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, stalking, and more.When, an allegation arises, Palomar College is legally obligated to promptly investigate and address it through an equitable disciplinary process. However, these proceedings often lack fundamental due process protections found in criminal courts. That’s, where our experienced Title IX defense attorneys step in.The, process typically involves the following steps:

  1. Report and Initial Assessment: Once a report is filed, the Title IX Coordinator conducts an initial review to determine if a formal investigation is warranted.
  2. Investigation: If an investigation proceeds, both parties are interviewed, evidence is gathered, and an investigative report is prepared.
  3. Live Hearing: A live hearing is held, where an advisor (not necessarily an attorney) cross-examines parties and witnesses on your behalf.
  4. Determination: A panel of decision-makers evaluates the evidence and testimony to reach a determination of responsibility.
  5. Sanctions and Appeals: If found responsible, sanctions like suspension or expulsion may be imposed. Both parties can appeal based on specific grounds.

From, start to finish, this process is rife with potential pitfalls and biases that can severely undermine your rights and interests. That’s why proactive legal involvement is crucial from day one.
