🚨 This Happens in Hamilton County Too

Hazing isn’t just a problem in Texas. It happens right here in Nebraska — at Hastings College, Central Community College, and other institutions near Hamilton County. The same national fraternities that waterboarded our client operate chapters at colleges across America, including near Hamilton County.

If your child was forced to drink until vomiting, do dangerous physical activities, endure sleep deprivation, or suffer psychological abuse — they may have a case.

⚖️ What Is Hazing? — Hamilton County Families Need to Know

Hazing includes any activity that endangers the mental or physical health of a student for the purpose of initiation, affiliation, or maintaining membership in an organization.

This includes:

Physical abuse — beatings, paddling, forced exercise to exhaustion
Forced consumption — alcohol, food, or other substances until vomiting
Sleep deprivation — forced late nights, early mornings, disrupted sleep
Psychological torture — humiliation, degradation, threats of expulsion
Waterboarding or simulated drowning — as seen in our Houston case
Sexual abuse or humiliation — forced nudity, carrying sexual objects
Extreme weather exposure — forced to strip in cold or hot conditions

If your child experienced any of these at a college near Hamilton County, Nebraska — contact us immediately.

💔 The Reality of Hazing — What Hamilton County Families Face

Hazing isn’t “tradition.” It isn’t “building character.” It’s abuse. It’s assault. It can be criminal.

Medical consequences of hazing include:

Rhabdomyolysis — muscle breakdown that can lead to kidney failure (like our Houston client)
Alcohol poisoning — which can be fatal
Traumatic brain injury — from beatings or falls
Hypothermia or heat stroke — from exposure
PTSD, anxiety, and depression — long-term psychological damage
Death — from extreme physical exertion, alcohol poisoning, or neglect

Institutional consequences:

Universities know hazing happens but often fail to act
National fraternities claim to have anti-hazing policies but don’t enforce them
Victims are pressured to stay silent — fearing retaliation or social ostracism

Hamilton County families: If your child was hazed, they were failed by the institution that was supposed to protect them.

🏛️ Who Is Liable? — Holding Hamilton County Institutions Accountable

❓ Frequently Asked Questions — Hamilton County Hazing Victims

Q: My child was hazed, but they don’t want to sue. Should we still call?

A: Yes. Even if your child is hesitant, it’s important to document the incident and understand your legal options. Hazing often causes long-term physical and psychological harm that may not be immediately apparent. We offer free, confidential consultations — there’s no obligation to proceed.

Q: The fraternity/sorority says my child consented. Can they still be held liable?

A: Absolutely. Nebraska law does not allow organizations to evade liability by claiming the victim “consented” to hazing. Coercion, peer pressure, and fear of retaliation negate any claim of true consent. We will fight this defense aggressively.

Q: We’re worried about retaliation. How can you protect my child?

A: We take retaliation concerns very seriously. We will:

Handle all communications with the organization and their lawyers
Protect your child’s identity when possible
Advise on steps to minimize social and academic retaliation
Pursue legal action against anyone who retaliates

Q: My child attends Hastings College (or another school near Hamilton County). Can you still help?

A: Yes. We serve hazing victims across Nebraska, including Hamilton County. We can evaluate your case regardless of where the hazing occurred. We will travel to Hamilton County for your case.

Q: How much does it cost to hire Attorney 911?

A: Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis — we only get paid if we win your case. There are no hourly fees, no retainers, and no financial risk for Hamilton County families.

Q: What if the hazing happened off-campus?

A: It doesn’t matter. Hazing is illegal whether it occurs on or off campus. We can pursue claims against the organization, the individuals involved, and any property owners who allowed the hazing to occur.

Q: Can we sue the national fraternity if the hazing happened at a local chapter?

A: Yes. National fraternities and sororities can be held liable for failing to supervise their local chapters. In our Houston case, we are suing both the local chapter and the national organization for their role in the hazing.

Q: What if my child was hazed but not physically injured?

A: Psychological trauma is just as serious as physical injury. If your child suffered PTSD, anxiety, depression, or other emotional harm from hazing, they may still have a valid legal claim. Contact us for a free evaluation.

Q: How long will a hazing lawsuit take?

A: Every case is different. Some cases settle within 6-12 months, while others may take 1-3 years if they go to trial. We will work to resolve your case as quickly as possible while maximizing your compensation.

Q: What should I do if the university or fraternity contacts me?

A: Do not speak to them without legal counsel. Anything you say can be used against your child. Refer them to Attorney 911 immediately. We will handle all communications.
