Hazing Lawyer for Washakie County, Wyoming – Protecting Students from Greek Life Abuse

🚨 Hazing Happens in Wyoming Too – And It’s Time to Stop It

Washakie County families: If your child was hazed at a fraternity, sorority, sports team, or other student organization in Wyoming—or anywhere in the U.S.—you’re not alone. The same national fraternities and sororities that have paid millions in settlements for hazing deaths and injuries operate right here in Wyoming. And the same culture of abuse that hospitalized our client in Texas exists in Washakie County.

We are Attorney 911. We’re currently fighting a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston after a student was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure from hazing. This same fraternity has chapters across America—including near Washakie County. And we’re ready to fight for Wyoming families too.

💔 What Hazing Really Looks Like in Wyoming

Hazing isn’t just “boys being boys” or “harmless tradition.” It’s abuse, torture, and sometimes manslaughter. In our current case, a student was:

Waterboarded with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
Forced to do 500 squats and 100+ pushups until he collapsed
Struck with wooden paddles (physical assault)
Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to keep running
Threatened with expulsion if he refused
Hospitalized for 4 days with rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown) and kidney failure

This isn’t just happening in Texas. The same national fraternities with chapters near Washakie County have paid millions in settlements for hazing deaths and injuries. If your child was hazed in Wyoming, we will hold the abusers—and the institutions that enabled them—accountable.

🏛️ Who Is Liable for Hazing in Wyoming?

When hazing happens, everyone who participated or allowed it can be held legally responsible—including the university, the national organization, and individual members. In our $10 million case, we’re suing:

Defendant Why They’re Liable
Pi Kappa Phi National Knew about “hazing crisis” but failed to stop it
Local Chapter Directly organized and conducted the abuse
University of Houston Owned the fraternity house where hazing occurred
Chapter Officers Leaders who directed the hazing (president, pledgemaster)
Individual Members Those who participated in or witnessed the abuse
Alumni/Hosts Allowed hazing at their homes

Wyoming universities and Greek organizations have the same liability. If your child was hazed at a fraternity, sorority, or student group in Washakie County, we will pursue every responsible partyincluding the national organization, the chapter, the university, and the individuals who hurt your child.

💰 Hazing Cases Win Millions – Here’s the Proof

Hazing lawsuits have resulted in multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements across the U.S. These aren’t just numbers—they’re messages to fraternities and universities that hazing will not be tolerated.

Case Fraternity Outcome Amount
Stone Foltz (Bowling Green State) Pi Kappa Alpha Settlement $10.1 million
Maxwell Gruver (LSU) Phi Delta Theta Jury Verdict $6.1 million
Timothy Piazza (Penn State) Beta Theta Pi Settlement $110+ million
Andrew Coffey (FSU) Pi Kappa Phi Settlement Confidential (major)
Leonel Bermudez (UH) Pi Kappa Phi OUR CASE $10 million lawsuit pending

These same results are possible for Washakie County families. If your child was hazed, we will fight for maximum compensation—including:
Medical bills (past and future)
Pain and suffering (physical and emotional)
Lost wages (if they missed work or school)
Punitive damages (to punish the abusers and prevent future hazing)

📋 What to Do If Your Child Was Hazed in Washakie County

If your child was hazed, time is critical. Evidence disappears, witnesses forget, and statutes of limitations expire. Here’s what to do immediately:

✅ Step 1: Get Medical Attention

  • Even if injuries seem minor, get checked by a doctor.
  • Some hazing injuries (like rhabdomyolysis) don’t show symptoms right away.
  • Medical records are critical evidence for your case.

✅ Step 2: Preserve All Evidence

  • Take photos/videos of injuries, hazing locations, and any physical evidence (paddles, alcohol bottles, etc.).
  • Save all communications (texts, GroupMe, Snapchat, emails, social media posts).
  • Write down everything you remember (dates, times, what was said, who was involved).
  • Get witness names and contact info (other pledges, bystanders).

✅ Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity or University Without a Lawyer

  • They will try to control the narrative, destroy evidence, and intimidate witnesses.
  • Do not give statements to the organization, the university, or their insurance companies.
  • Do not sign anything from the fraternity, sorority, or university.

✅ Step 4: Call Attorney 911 Immediately

We will:
Protect your rights from the start
Preserve evidence before it disappears
Handle all communications with the fraternity, university, and insurance companies
Fight for maximum compensation for your child’s injuries
