🏛️ Why Pierce County, Georgia Families Choose Attorney 911 for Hazing Cases

1. We’re Fighting This Battle Right Now

While other law firms talk about hazing, we’re actively litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit in Texas. Our client, Leonel Bermudez, was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats until he collapsed, and hospitalized with kidney failure—all at the hands of a fraternity. We know how to build these cases because we’re in the courtroom right now.

2. We Understand the Pierce County, Georgia College Landscape

Pierce County, Georgia is home to hardworking families who send their children to college expecting them to be safe. But hazing happens at universities near Pierce County, Georgia—including Georgia Southern University, Valdosta State University, and others. We know the local Greek life culture, the fraternities operating in the region, and how to hold them accountable.

3. We Don’t Just Sue Students—We Sue Institutions

Hazing isn’t just about “boys being boys.” It’s about fraternities, universities, and national organizations that turn a blind eye to abuse. In our current case, we’re suing:

• Pi Kappa Phi National (for failing to stop hazing despite knowing about a “hazing crisis”)
• The local chapter (for organizing the abuse)
• The University of Houston (for owning the fraternity house where the hazing occurred)
• Individual members (for participating in the abuse)

We will pursue every liable party in your Pierce County, Georgia hazing case.

4. We Have a Proven Track Record of Multi-Million Dollar Results

We’ve secured millions in settlements and verdicts for victims of negligence, including:

• $10+ million in hazing-related litigation (current case)

• $6.5 million personal judgment against a fraternity president in a hazing death case

We don’t back down from powerful institutions—and we won’t back down for your Pierce County, Georgia family.

🔥 The Hazing Crisis in Georgia: What Pierce County Families Need to Know

Hazing Isn’t “Tradition”—It’s Abuse

Fraternities and sororities near Pierce County, Georgia often claim hazing is “just part of the process.” But hazing is illegal in Georgia, and it can cause:

• Physical injuries (broken bones, burns, rhabdomyolysis)
• Psychological trauma (PTSD, anxiety, depression)
• Death (at least one hazing death has occurred every year in the U.S. since 2000)

Georgia has strict anti-hazing laws (OCGA § 16-5-61), and hazing that causes serious injury or death can result in felony charges.

Fraternities Near Pierce County, Georgia Have a History of Hazing

The same national fraternities involved in our $10 million lawsuit operate chapters near Pierce County, Georgia, including:

• Pi Kappa Phi (currently being sued in Texas)
• Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) (multiple hazing deaths nationwide)
• Pi Kappa Alpha (Pike) (involved in the $10.1 million Stone Foltz settlement)
• Phi Delta Theta (responsible for the $6.1 million Max Gruver verdict)

If your child is pledging a fraternity or sorority near Pierce County, Georgia, they are at risk.

Universities Near Pierce County, Georgia Are Complicit

Colleges and universities near Pierce County, Georgia have a legal duty to protect students from hazing. But too often, they:

• Ignore reports of hazing
• Fail to investigate complaints
• Allow dangerous Greek life cultures to thrive

In our current case, the University of Houston owned the fraternity house where the hazing occurred—and they had a prior hazing incident in 2017. They knew the risks and did nothing.

If your child was hazed at a university near Pierce County, Georgia, the school may be liable.

🚑 What to Do If Your Child Is Hazed in Pierce County, Georgia

1. Get Medical Help Immediately

Hazing can cause life-threatening injuries, including:

• Rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown leading to kidney failure)
• Alcohol poisoning (from forced drinking)
• Traumatic brain injuries (from beatings or falls)
• Heat stroke or hypothermia (from extreme physical activities)

If your child shows signs of hazing-related injury (severe pain, dark urine, confusion, vomiting), take them to the ER immediately.

2. Preserve All Evidence

Hazing cases are won or lost based on evidence. Save everything:
✅ Medical records (hospital bills, doctor’s notes, therapy records)
✅ Photos/videos (injuries, hazing activities, fraternity house)
✅ Text messages (GroupMe, Snapchat, Instagram, WhatsApp)
✅ Social media posts (screenshots of hazing-related content)
✅ Witness statements (names and contact info of other pledges)
✅ Fraternity documents (pledge manuals, schedules, rules)

Do NOT delete anything—even if it seems embarrassing or incriminating.

3. Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity or University Without a Lawyer

Fraternities, sororities, and universities near Pierce County, Georgia will try to control the narrative after a hazing incident. They may:

• Pressure your child to sign a waiver
• Offer a low settlement to make the case “go away”
• Threaten retaliation if you speak out

Before talking to anyone, call us at 1-888-ATTY-911.

4. Contact Attorney 911 Immediately

Hazing cases have strict deadlines (typically 2 years from the incident in Georgia). The sooner you act, the stronger your case will be.
