Title IX Defense Lawyers In New Jersey
Nationwide Title IX Defense For Students And Faculty
A Title IX allegation in New Jersey creates legal risks that impact your academic and professional future. At institutions like Rutgers or Princeton, the disciplinary process often favors the accuser. Schools frequently prioritize their reputation and federal funding over the truth.
At NachtLaw, P.C., we use Third Circuit precedents, like Doe v. University of the Sciences, to argue that universities must provide meaningful procedural protections. We fight so you can challenge evidence and cross-examine witnesses.
How Can A New Jersey Title IX Attorney Protect My Student Rights?
We provide defense strategies based on your school’s code of conduct. As your university disciplinary attorney, we:
- Demand fair hearings: We push for live hearings to challenge witness credibility, rather than allowing a single investigator to decide the outcome.
- Uncover bias: We investigate the investigators for gender bias or conflicts of interest that invalidate the process.
- Coordinate criminal defense: We manage your school defense to protect your position in any parallel New Jersey criminal proceedings.
- Mitigate consequences: If a violation is found, we negotiate for sanctions like probation that allow you to stay in school.
Our team applies these defense strategies to various charges governed by university policy.
What Types Of Conduct Fall Under Title IX In New Jersey?
We defend clients against sexual misconduct allegations, including:
- Sexual assault and rape
- “Incapacitated” sexual contact involving alcohol or drugs
- Dating violence and domestic abuse
- Stalking and cyber-harassment
- Sexual harassment claims involving verbal or online conduct
While these codes of conduct focus on students, university employees face similar disciplinary risks.
Can A New Jersey Title IX Attorney Represent Both Students And Faculty?
Yes. Faculty members face unique risks, including tenure revocation and licensure loss. We represent professors and staff to protect their careers, examining how Title IX policies interact with faculty handbooks and employment contracts.
