Attorney911: Hazing Victim Legal Representation in Radford, Virginia
Radford Families: Your Child Was Hazed. We Can Help.
At Attorney911, we are currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston after a student was hospitalized with rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure from extreme physical abuse. This isn’t just happening in Texas—it happens at universities near Radford, too.
If your child has been a victim of hazing—whether in a fraternity, sorority, sports team, marching band, or any student organization—we can help. We serve Radford families nationwide, offering free consultations, contingency-based representation (no upfront costs), and aggressive legal action to hold institutions accountable.
🚨 Hazing Is Not Tradition—It’s Abuse
Hazing isn’t “just a prank” or “building brotherhood.” It’s assault, battery, and sometimes torture. Our client was:
- Waterboarded with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
- Forced to do 500 squats and 100+ pushups until he collapsed
- Struck with wooden paddles
- Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to lie in his own vomit
- Hospitalized for 4 days with kidney failure
This happens at Radford-area universities too. The same fraternities, the same negligence, the same culture of abuse.
🏛️ Who Can Be Held Liable in Radford Hazing Cases?
We sue every responsible party, including:
✅ Local fraternity/sorority chapters – The individuals who organized and participated in hazing
✅ National fraternity/sorority organizations – They know hazing happens and fail to stop it
✅ Universities & colleges near Radford – They have a duty to protect students; when they fail, they’re liable
✅ Individual members & officers – Chapter presidents, pledgemasters, and active members can be sued personally
✅ Alumni & housing corporations – If hazing occurred at their property, they share responsibility
💰 What Compensation Can Radford Families Recover?
Hazing victims and their families may be entitled to:
✔ Medical expenses (past, present, and future)
✔ Pain and suffering (physical and emotional trauma)
✔ Lost wages & future earning capacity (if injuries impact career)
✔ Punitive damages (to punish egregious misconduct)
✔ Wrongful death damages (if hazing results in death)
Recent hazing settlements and verdicts:
- $10.1 million (Stone Foltz, Pi Kappa Alpha, Bowling Green State)
- $6.1 million (Maxwell Gruver, Phi Delta Theta, LSU)
- $110+ million (Timothy Piazza, Beta Theta Pi, Penn State)
Your Radford case could be worth millions.

🔹 Frequently Asked Questions for Radford Families
Q: What if the hazing happened off-campus?
A: We can still sue. Hazing laws apply on or off campus, and universities can still be liable if they knew or should have known about the abuse.
Q: What if my child “consented” to hazing?
A: Consent is NOT a defense in Virginia. Virginia Code § 18.2-56 prohibits hazing regardless of whether the victim agreed to participate.
Q: Can we sue if the hazing didn’t cause physical injury?
A: Yes. Psychological trauma (PTSD, anxiety, depression) is compensable. Many hazing victims suffer long-term emotional damage even without physical injuries.
Q: What if the fraternity has already suspended the chapter?
A: That doesn’t protect them from liability. In fact, it’s an admission of guilt. We’ll use their own actions against them in court.
Q: How long do we have to file a lawsuit in Virginia?
A: Generally 2 years from the date of injury. However, act now—evidence disappears, and witnesses forget.
Q: Will my child have to testify?
A: Possibly, but we prepare our clients thoroughly. Many cases settle before trial, but if needed, we’ll ensure your child is protected and supported.
