University Disciplinary Matters
Our firm has a long history of advising students, faculty, staff, and organizations involved in higher education disciplinary proceedings, including handling accusations of misconduct.
The work we have performed in this area has included: investigating allegations, assisting with hearing preparation, attending hearings with clients, litigation in the Illinois Court of Claims, and the negotiation of termination agreements. We also have experience defending the academic freedom and free speech rights of faculty, staff, and students.
We work vigorously to safeguard our clients’ procedural rights and will provide superior advocacy during the investigation and adjudication phases of these cases.
