Student Defense
A Title IX Allegation Can Threaten Everything You’ve Built
For faculty and staff, a Title IX complaint is more than a workplace issue — it’s a direct threat to your career, professional reputation, and future opportunities.
Even an unproven allegation can lead to:
Administrative leave
Loss of teaching assignments
Damage to professional credibility
Reporting to licensing or accreditation bodies
Long-term career consequences
At Your Education Lawyer, we provide discreet, strategic Title IX defense for faculty and staff across Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and New York City.
We understand how universities investigate — and how quickly situations can escalate if not handled correctly.
Who We Represent
We represent:
University professors and lecturers
Adjunct and visiting faculty
Teaching assistants and instructors
Researchers and laboratory staff
Coaches and athletic staff
Administrative and professional employees
Whether you work at a public university, private college, or research institution, Title IX allegations must be handled with precision and care.
Common Faculty Title IX Allegations
Faculty Title IX complaints often involve:
Allegations of sexual harassment or misconduct
Claims of inappropriate relationships with students
Retaliation accusations
Hostile environment complaints
Misuse of authority or boundary violations
Third-party or anonymous reports
These cases are frequently complex and politically sensitive — requiring experienced legal guidance from the outset.
Why Faculty Title IX Cases Are Different
Faculty members face risks that students do not:
Employment contracts and tenure implications
Faculty handbook and institutional policy violations
Mandatory reporting obligations
Public or internal disclosure
Collateral consequences outside the university
Universities often prioritize institutional risk management over individual fairness.
That’s why early, informed legal representation is critical.
Your Rights During a Faculty Title IX Investigation
Even during internal investigations, faculty and staff have important rights, including:
Clear written notice of allegations
Access to relevant evidence
The right to an advisor or attorney
Fair and impartial investigators
Opportunity to respond before findings are made
Appeal rights in many institutions
Unfortunately, these rights are not always explained — or respected — without legal intervention.
How We Defend Faculty & Staff
At Your Education Lawyer, we focus on early intervention and strategic protection.
We assist by:
Reviewing the complaint and institutional policies
Preparing you for interviews and written responses
Managing communications with investigators
Challenging procedural errors or bias
Protecting against retaliation or overreach
Handling appeals and post-decision remedies
Our goal is not only to defend the allegation — but to protect your career and professional standing long-term.
Title IX and Employment Consequences
Unlike student cases, faculty Title IX matters often overlap with:
Employment discipline
Termination proceedings
Collective bargaining agreements
Professional licensing considerations
We approach these cases holistically — ensuring your defense aligns with both education law and employment implications.
