🛡️ Hazing Victims in Mobile County Deserve Justice — We Fight for Your Family
Mobile County families: When your child leaves for college, you trust that the university and Greek organizations will keep them safe. You trust that the “brotherhood” they’re joining is built on respect and shared values. You trust that the adults in charge will intervene if something goes wrong.
That trust is being betrayed.
Right now, in fraternities and sororities across America — including at universities near Mobile County — students are being waterboarded, beaten, forced to drink until they vomit, and pushed to the brink of death in the name of “tradition.” One student in Houston was hospitalized with kidney failure after being forced to do 500 squats as punishment. Another was hog-tied with an object in his mouth for over an hour. A third collapsed unconscious during a forced workout.
This isn’t tradition. This is torture.
And it’s happening at universities near Mobile County — where the same national fraternities operate, the same “hazing culture” thrives, and the same institutional failures allow abuse to continue.
At Attorney 911, we are fighting this battle right now. We are currently representing a hazing victim in a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston. Our client was waterboarded, forced to exercise until he couldn’t stand, and hospitalized with kidney failure. We know how to win these cases. We know how to hold institutions accountable. And we will bring the same fight to Mobile County families who’ve been betrayed by the same system.
🚨 The Hazing Crisis in Mobile County — What Local Families Need to Know
Hazing Doesn’t Stop at State Lines
The same national fraternities that have paid millions in settlements for hazing deaths and injuries nationwide operate chapters at universities near Mobile County. Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, Phi Delta Theta, Beta Theta Pi — these organizations have been involved in documented hazing deaths and hospitalizations across America. If they’re operating near Mobile County, they’re bringing the same culture of abuse.
Universities Near Mobile County Are Complicit
Universities have the power to stop hazing. They own fraternity houses. They charter Greek organizations. They receive reports of abuse. And too often, they do nothing — until someone gets hurt or killed. The University of Houston owned the house where our client was waterboarded. They had a prior hazing incident in 2017. They knew the risks. They failed to act. Mobile County universities face the same liability when they ignore the warning signs.
The Medical Consequences Are Real — And Life-Altering
Hazing isn’t “harmless fun.” It causes:
- Rhabdomyolysis — muscle breakdown that can lead to kidney failure (like our client)
- Alcohol poisoning — leading to coma or death
- Traumatic brain injuries — from beatings or falls
- PTSD, anxiety, and depression — lasting psychological trauma
- Wrongful death — families left grieving a child who never came home
These aren’t accidents. They’re preventable tragedies — and the institutions responsible must be held accountable.
⚖️ Your Legal Rights as a Mobile County Hazing Victim
1. You Have the Right to Compensation
If you or your child was hazed, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical bills — past, present, and future
- Lost wages — if injuries affected employment
- Pain and suffering — physical and emotional trauma
- Punitive damages — to punish egregious conduct and prevent future abuse
Our $10 million hazing lawsuit is proof that these cases win big. In recent years, hazing victims and families have recovered:
- $10.1 million (Stone Foltz, Pi Kappa Alpha)
- $6.1 million jury verdict (Maxwell Gruver, Phi Delta Theta)
- $110+ million (Timothy Piazza, Beta Theta Pi)
Mobile County families deserve the same justice.
2. Consent Is Not a Defense in Alabama
Fraternities will argue that your child “agreed to participate” or “knew the risks.” Alabama law says that doesn’t matter. Hazing is illegal regardless of consent. You cannot legally consent to being assaulted, tortured, or put in life-threatening danger.
3. Multiple Defendants Can Be Held Liable
In our current case, we’re suing:
- The local fraternity chapter — for organizing the hazing
- The national organization — for failing to supervise despite knowing about a “hazing crisis”
- The university — for owning the property where abuse occurred and failing to protect students
- Individual members — for participating in or enabling the abuse
Mobile County cases will follow the same strategy. We pursue every liable party to maximize compensation and accountability.
📋 What Mobile County Families Should Do If Hazing Occurs
Step 1: Seek Medical Attention Immediately
Even if injuries seem minor, get checked by a doctor. Some conditions (like rhabdomyolysis) may not show symptoms right away. Medical records are critical evidence for your case.
Step 2: Preserve All Evidence
- Take photos of injuries at all stages of healing
- Save all communications — texts, GroupMe chats, Snapchats, emails
- Document everything — dates, times, locations, what was said and done
- Get witness names — other pledges, bystanders, anyone who saw what happened
- Do NOT delete anything — even if it seems embarrassing or incriminating
Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity or University Without Legal Counsel
- They will try to control the narrative
- They will try to get you to sign documents that waive your rights
- They will try to record statements that can be used against you
- Anything you say can be twisted to minimize your claim
Step 4: Contact Attorney 911 Immediately
- Free consultation — no cost to evaluate your case
- $0 upfront — we work on contingency; you pay nothing unless we win
- We handle everything — we deal with the fraternity, university, and insurance companies
- We travel to Mobile County — for depositions, meetings, and trials

🎓 The Message to Universities Near Mobile County
To the University of South Alabama, Spring Hill College, Bishop State Community College, and every other institution near Mobile County:
You have a duty to protect your students. When you own fraternity houses, charter Greek organizations, or receive reports of hazing, you are responsible for what happens on your campus.
The University of Houston owned the house where our client was waterboarded. They had a prior hazing incident in 2017. They failed to act. And now they’re facing a $10 million lawsuit.
Mobile County universities: If you ignore the warning signs, you will face the same accountability.

Wrongful death cases from hazing result in the highest settlements and verdicts because juries understand the magnitude of the loss. We will pursue:

🚨 Mobile County Parents: Protect Your Child Before It’s Too Late
Hazing doesn’t always make the news. Many victims suffer in silence due to:
- Fear of retaliation from fraternity members
- Shame and embarrassment about what they endured
- Loyalty to the organization that abused them
- Not recognizing it as hazing — “This is just how it’s done”
Warning Signs Your Child May Be Being Hazed:
- Sudden changes in behavior — withdrawal, anxiety, depression
- Unexplained injuries — bruises, cuts, or signs of physical trauma
- Avoiding questions about their fraternity/sorority experience
- Sudden exhaustion or sleep deprivation
- Changes in academic performance
- Avoiding social events or activities they used to enjoy
- Secretive behavior about their schedule or whereabouts
What to Do If You Suspect Hazing:
- Talk to your child — in a non-judgmental way
- Document everything — save texts, social media posts, photos
- Contact us immediately — before evidence disappears
- Report to the university — but do not do this without legal counsel
The most dangerous time is during “Hell Week” or initiation periods — but hazing can happen at any time.
🏛️ We Are Changing the System — One Case at a Time
Every time a hazing case goes to trial or settles for millions, it sends a message to fraternities and universities: This ends now.
Our current $10 million lawsuit has already resulted in:
- The Pi Kappa Phi chapter being permanently closed
- National media coverage exposing the culture of abuse
- University admissions of “deeply disturbing” violations
- Criminal investigations into individual members
This is how change happens. Not through empty promises from fraternities, but through legal accountability.
Mobile County families: You can be part of this change. If your child has been hazed, step forward. If you’ve lost a child to hazing, let us fight for you. Together, we can end this culture of abuse.
🔥 Enough Is Enough — Join the Fight
To Mobile County students who’ve been hazed: You are not alone. What happened to you was wrong. You deserve justice.
To Mobile County parents: You sent your child to college expecting them to be safe. The institutions you trusted failed them.
To Mobile County community members: Hazing is not a private matter. It’s a public health crisis that affects our children, our families, and our community.
The time for silence is over. The time for accountability is now.
