Hazing Lawyers in Creek County, Oklahoma – Protecting Students and Families from Greek Life Abuse

Attorney 911: Creek County’s Trusted Hazing Litigation Team – Fighting for Justice After Fraternity and Sorority Abuse

🚨 Creek County Parents: Your Child Could Be Next

Hazing doesn’t stop at state lines. The same national fraternities operating at University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, and universities across Creek County engage in the same dangerous “traditions” that hospitalized our client in Houston. If your child is pledging a fraternity or sorority in Creek County, they face the same risks.

We are currently litigating a $10 MILLION hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston after our client was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats until his muscles broke down, and hospitalized with kidney failure. This same fraternity – and others like it – have active chapters at universities near Creek County.

Creek County families deserve the same aggressive legal representation we provide in Texas. While we’re based in Houston, our attorneys travel to Creek County for depositions, client meetings, and trials. We offer free video consultations for Creek County hazing victims and their families.

⚠️ What Creek County Parents Need to Know About Hazing

Hazing Isn’t “Tradition” – It’s Abuse

The recent University of Houston case proves what Creek County parents have feared: hazing isn’t harmless fun. It’s systematic abuse that can lead to hospitalization, permanent injury, or death.

In our current case, a Creek County-area student equivalent was:

• Waterboarded with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
• Forced to do 500 squats and 100 pushups until he couldn’t stand
• Struck with wooden paddles
• Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to run through his own vomit
• Hospitalized for four days with rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure

This is happening at universities near Creek County. The same fraternities with chapters at OU and OSU have paid millions in settlements for hazing deaths and injuries nationwide.

Q: How much does it cost to hire a hazing lawyer?

A: Nothing upfront. We work on contingency – you pay nothing unless we win your case. Our fee comes from the settlement or verdict, so there’s no financial risk to Creek County families.

Q: What if the fraternity says my child “consented” to hazing?

A: Consent is NOT a defense under Oklahoma law. The statute explicitly states that even if your child agreed to participate, the law still protects them. We will aggressively counter this argument.

Q: Can we sue the university if the hazing happened off-campus?

A: Yes. Universities have a duty to protect students from foreseeable harm, even off-campus. If the university knew or should have known about hazing risks, they can be held liable.

A: Most cases settle before trial. If your case does go to trial, we will prepare your child thoroughly and support them through the process. Many victims find testifying empowering – it gives them a voice against their abusers.

Q: What if my child is an international student?

A: Your child’s immigration status does not affect their right to compensation. We have experience representing international students and will protect their privacy.
