Hazing Lawyers in Columbia County, AR – Protecting Students & Families from Fraternity & Sorority Abuse

If your child was hazed at a college or university near Columbia County, Arkansas, you are not alone—and you have legal rights.

Hazing is not “tradition.” It is not “brotherhood.” It is abuse, assault, and sometimes torture—and it happens at schools across Arkansas and the nation, including institutions near Columbia County. At Attorney 911, we are actively fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston, where a student was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure. The same fraternities and sororities operate near Columbia County. The same negligence exists at Arkansas institutions. And we will bring the same aggressive legal fight to Columbia County families.

If your child was hazed in Columbia County—or anywhere in Arkansas—call us now for a free, confidential consultation.
