Miltenberg: “Miltenberg Files 60th Title IX Lawsuit Against Universities,” PR Newswire

With his recent filing against Princeton University on behalf of an accused male student, prominent due process attorney Andrew Miltenberg and his higher education team (Nesenoff & Miltenberg LLP) has now filed an unprecedented 60 Title IX lawsuits in federal and state actions against colleges and universities on behalf of students and faculty involved in biased, compromised or flawed Title IX campus misconduct investigations. According to Title IX experts, Nesenoff & Miltenberg, LLP has filed more Title IX lawsuits than any single law firm in the country. “As a result of the overreaching Title IX directives at colleges and universities put in place by the Obama Administration in 2011, we’ve seen a surge in lawsuits by male students over false allegations and wrongful investigations in the past several years,” said Miltenberg. “Unfortunately, in this era of the #MeToo movement, the mere accusation or suggestion of sexual impropriety is enough to get a student expelled from college. While federal guidelines have been proposed to ensure more objective and fair Title IX investigations, colleges and universities have a long way to go in ensuring a student’s right to due process.”
