Dillon PLLC

Attorney's at Dillon PLLC have been representing students accused of violating Title IX policies on University campuses since 2010.  We have represented scores of students at dozens of schools all over the country, from Maine to California and from Florida to Alaska. We’ve represented students when they’ve first been given a no-contact order, and we’ve represented them all the way through a victory in court. .

Our lawyers have written on Title IX and the problems with how schools implement Title IX guidance in national publications including The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and Time magazine. We’ve taught other lawyers how to do these cases and even given presentations to Title IX coordinators about how to set up a fair process at their schools.

Our lawyers have gone to the best law schools in the country. We have been handling these cases at schools and in court before most lawyers even knew this was a real practice area.

When you choose a lawyer, you want someone who understands that and will climb right in the foxhole with you. That’s what we do at Dillon PLLC—we fight for you, and we fight with you.
