CLE - Representing Students in Campus Disciplinary Proceedings

Attorneys increasingly encounter students facing serious university disciplinary charges, from academic misconduct and hazing to broader campus conduct violations.

In this live, beginner-level Lawline CLE, Partner Samantha Harris of Allen Harris PLLC walks attorneys through the full lifecycle of a campus disciplinary case. The program provides a practical, step-by-step framework for representing students in student conduct proceedings, from the initial notice of allegations through investigation, hearings, and final resolution. Attendees will gain actionable guidance on preparing clients, navigating institutional processes, safeguarding procedural fairness, and applying recent case law in real-world settings.
