If you’re reading this, your family in Early County may be facing one of the most terrifying moments of your life. Your child was supposed to make friends at college, build connections, and prepare for a bright future. Instead, they were tortured. They were abused. Their health, their dreams, and their sense of safety have been shattered. We’re here to help families in Early County fight back against the insidious problem of hazing that continues to plague colleges and universities across America, including institutions that students from Early County attend.

At Attorney911, we understand what you’re going through. The fear, the anger, the confusion – it’s overwhelming. You might be searching for answers at 2 AM, wondering how this could have happened and what you can possibly do. We want you to know that you are not alone. Our dedicated team of hazing litigation experts is actively fighting this battle right now, holding powerful fraternities, universities, and individuals accountable. We are Ralph Manginello and Lupe Pena, and we are committed to aggressively representing victims of hazing and their families, no matter where it happens, even if you are in Early County, Georgia.

The Hazing Crisis: Why Early County Families Need Us

Hazing is not a harmless rite of passage. It is not “boys being boys” or “building brotherhood.” It is systematic abuse, psychological torture, and often criminal assault that can lead to severe injury, life-altering trauma, and even death. Parents in Early County send their children to colleges and universities across Georgia and nationwide with the expectation that they will be safe, nurtured, and educated. This trust is betrayed when institutions fail to protect students from the rampant dangers of hazing.

The problem is pervasive. Statistics paint a grim picture:

• Over 55% of students in Greek organizations experience hazing.
• 40% of student athletes report hazing incidents.
• Since the year 2000, there has been at least one hazing-related death every single year in the United States.
• A staggering 95% of students who are hazed do not report it, often due to fear of retaliation, shame, or loyalty to the organization.

Hazing is not confined to fraternities and sororities. It occurs in sports teams, marching bands, ROTC programs, clubs, and various student organizations. The devastating reality is that universities often know it’s happening, national organizations are aware of the risks, yet they fail to act until a tragedy strikes. Then, they issue statements, suspend chapters, or claim “new initiatives” – all while the victims and their families are left to pick up the pieces. This cycle of denial and inaction fuels the crisis, and it’s why Attorney911 stands ready to intervene for families in Early County.

The Landmark Bermudez Case: Our $10 Million Fight for Justice

We don’t just talk about hazing; we’re in the trenches fighting it right now. Our firm has filed a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi, the University of Houston, and 13 individual fraternity members in Harris County Civil District Court. This isn’t just another case for us; it is the centerpiece of everything Attorney911 stands for: aggressive representation, data-driven strategy, and relentless pursuit of accountability for hazing victims. This case represents the brutal reality of hazing today, and it serves as a stark warning to families in Early County about what their children could face at colleges anywhere in the nation.

This case happened in Houston. But the same hazing happens at universities near Early County. The same fraternities operate near Early County. The same negligence exists at institutions across the country. And we will fight for Early County families with the same aggression we’re bringing to this case.

Meet the Victim: Leonel Bermudez’s Story

Leonel Bermudez was a “ghost rush,” a prospective member who wasn’t even enrolled at the University of Houston yet. He planned to transfer for the upcoming semester, eager to become part of the campus community. On September 16, 2025, he accepted a bid to join the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. What followed were weeks of systematic abuse so severe that it hospitalized him for three nights and four days with severe rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure.

His story is a nightmare no parent in Early County wants to imagine for their child:

• Waterboarded with a garden hose: Pledges were sprayed in the face with a hose while doing calisthenics, under constant threat of further “waterboarding.” As we’ve stated in media, “Waterboarding, which simulates drowning, is a form of torture.”
• Hog-tied and humiliated: Another pledge was hog-tied face-down on a table with an object in his mouth for over an hour during a hazing session. Leonel was forced to carry a fanny pack containing objects of a sexual nature at all times. Pledges were forced to strip to their underwear in cold weather and then sprayed with a hose.
• Forced eating until vomiting: He and other pledges were made to consume large amounts of milk, hot dogs, and peppercorns until they vomited, then forced to continue running sprints while in physical distress, and made to lie in vomit-soaked grass.
• Extreme physical punishment: On November 3, 2025, after missing an event, Leonel was brutally punished. He was forced to perform 100+ pushups, 500 squats, high-volume “suicides,” bear crawls, wheelbarrows, “save-you-brother” drills, two-mile warmups, and repeated 100-yard crawls while reciting the fraternity creed. He was threatened with immediate expulsion if he stopped. He was so exhausted he could not stand without help. The Houston Chronicle also reported he was “being struck with wooden paddles.”
• Sleep deprivation and exhaustion: He was forced to drive fraternity members during early morning hours, leading to severe exhaustion.

When he finally made it home that night, he crawled up the stairs and went to bed. The next day, he was so sore he couldn’t move. The next day was worse. His mother rushed him to the hospital, where he was passing brown urine—a classic sign of muscle breakdown. He was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure, requiring intensive medical treatment for four days. This agonizing ordeal, as described by Ralph Manginello to ABC13, highlights the severity of the abuse Leonel endured.

For Early County families: This is what hazing looks like. It is brutal, dehumanizing, and dangerous. These “traditions” are not just pranks; they are assaults that can cause lasting physical and psychological damage. The fact that this happened to someone who wasn’t even officially a student yet underscores the fraternity’s recklessness and disregard for human life.

The Institutional Cover-Up and Our Response

Within days of the hazing being reported and Leonel’s hospitalization on November 6, Pi Kappa Phi’s national headquarters suspended the chapter. By November 14, they officially closed the Beta Nu chapter. Their public statement, released on November 21 (the same day we filed our lawsuit), acknowledged “violations of the Fraternity’s risk management policy and membership conduct standards” and thanked the University of Houston for its “collaboration.” In the same breath, they declared, “We look forward to returning to campus at the appropriate time.”

This statement is damning:

• They admit to “violations.” They closed the chapter before we filed our lawsuit, proving they knew wrongdoing had occurred and were attempting to distance themselves. This is consciousness of liability.
• “Collaboration” with UH suggests a coordinated effort to control the narrative before public exposure.
• Their declaration about “returning to campus” reveals a shocking lack of remorse and a dismissive attitude towards the harm they inflicted. They’re already planning their comeback, while Leonel is still recovering from kidney failure.

The University of Houston’s spokesperson called the events “deeply disturbing” and a “clear violation of our community standards,” noting that individuals found responsible would face “expulsion and potential criminal charges.” This admission from UH itself acknowledges the severity and potential criminality of the hazing.

Attorney911 is not theoretical. We are not hypothetical. We are actively fighting right now. We filed a $10 million lawsuit naming:

• Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity (University of Houston Beta Nu Chapter)
• Pi Kappa Phi National Headquarters
• Pi Kappa Phi Housing Corporation
• University of Houston
• UH Board of Regents
• The fraternity president
• The pledgemaster
• Multiple current and former individual fraternity members
• Even a former member and his spouse, because some of the hazing occurred at their private residence.

This comprehensive approach demonstrates exactly what kind of firm Attorney911 is: aggressive, thorough, data-driven, and relentless in pursuing accountability for every single entity responsible for Leonel’s injuries.

What Hazing Really Looks Like: Beyond the Stereotypes

Parents in Early County might associate hazing with harmless pranks or mild inconveniences. The reality is far more sinister. Hazing involves abuse designed to exert power, instill fear, and force conformity. The incidents suffered by Leonel Bermudez illustrate the depths of this depravity:

• Physical Abuse: Beatings, paddling, forced extreme physical exertion to the point of collapse, sleep deprivation mimicking military torture tactics. This is not about pushing boundaries; it’s about breaking bodies and spirits.
• Forced Consumption: Making pledges consume excessive alcohol (leading to alcohol poisoning deaths), or horrifying concoctions of food until they vomit, often coupled with further physical demands in their own vomit. This is designed to degrade and sicken.
• Psychological Torture: Humiliation, degradation, isolation, threats, and forced servitude that strip individuals of their dignity and autonomy. The fear of retribution, as our client experiences, leaves lasting scars on mental health.
• Simulated Waterboarding: This is a technique condemned as torture by international human rights laws. Its use in a fraternity context is an indictment of a culture that normalizes brutality.
• Sexual Hazing: Requiring individuals to carry objects of a sexual nature, forced nudity, or even sexual assault. This is a severe violation of bodily autonomy and can inflict profound trauma.

The medical consequences can be catastrophic. Leonel Bermudez suffered rhabdomyolysis, a condition where muscle fibers break down and release harmful proteins into the bloodstream, which can overwhelm the kidneys leading to acute kidney failure. Such injuries can require extensive hospitalization, and in severe cases, lead to permanent kidney damage or necessitate dialysis. Other hazing incidents have resulted in traumatic brain injuries, hypothermia, cardiac arrest, and tragically, death. Beyond the physical, the psychological toll in the form of PTSD, anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation can be lifelong.

This is not a “boys will be boys” scenario. This is assault, battery, torture, reckless endangerment, and often, a crime.

Who Is Responsible: Every Entity That Participated or Allowed It

One of the most powerful aspects of hazing litigation is the ability to hold multiple parties accountable, not just the individual perpetrators. In the Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi case, Attorney911 is suing everyone with a hand in the incident, directly or indirectly. For families in Early County whose children are harmed by hazing, this means a broad net of accountability.

We identify and pursue all liable parties, including:

1. Local Chapter: The entity directly involved in organizing and carrying out the hazing activities. This includes the chapter as an organization and its officers, such as the president and pledgemaster, who have direct leadership responsibility.
2. Individual Members: Every member who actively participated in, condoned, or failed to intervene in the hazing can be held personally responsible. This extends to former members who might host hazing events at their residences, and even their spouses if they allowed such activities on their property.
3. National Fraternity/Sorority Organization: These national bodies have a duty to supervise their local chapters, enforce anti-hazing policies, and ensure member safety. When they fail to do so, especially after previous hazing deaths or serious injuries within their organization (like Pi Kappa Phi’s Andrew Coffey case in 2017), they are directly liable. These national organizations often have substantial assets and robust insurance policies.
4. University or College: Institutions like the University of Houston have a fundamental duty to protect their students. When hazing occurs on university-owned property (as was the case with UH), or when the university fails to adequately oversee Greek life organizations despite knowledge of prior incidents (like UH’s 2017 hazing hospitalization), they can be held liable for negligent supervision, premises liability, and institutional negligence.
5. Housing Corporations: Many fraternities own or manage their chapter houses through separate housing corporations. These entities have responsibilities for the safety of the premises and can be held accountable if hazing occurs on their property.
6. Insurance Carriers: The “deep pockets” in these cases often belong to the liability insurance carriers for the national organizations, universities, and sometimes even individual members or homeowners. As former insurance defense attorneys, Ralph Manginello and Lupe Pena bring invaluable insider knowledge on how to navigate these complex insurance structures to maximize recovery for victims.

This multi-faceted approach ensures that all responsible parties, from the individual students to vast national organizations and multi-million dollar universities, are held to account. Accountability isn’t about blaming; it’s about holding those with power and responsibility to the highest standards.

What These Cases Win: Multi-Million Dollar Proof

For families in Early County, understanding the potential for significant compensation after a hazing incident can offer a glimmer of hope. These cases are not just about justice; they are also about ensuring victims receive the financial resources needed for long-term medical care, psychological support, lost educational opportunities, and retribution for pain and suffering. The following precedent-setting hazing cases demonstrate that juries and institutions will award millions.

Stone Foltz – Bowling Green State University / Pi Kappa Alpha (2021)

• Total: $10.1 Million+
• Stone Foltz, 20, died from alcohol poisoning after being forced to drink an entire bottle of alcohol during a “Big/Little” event.
• Bowling Green State University settled for $2.9 million.
• Pi Kappa Alpha National and several individuals settled for $7.2 million.
• In December 2024, the former chapter president, Daylen Dunson, was ordered to pay $6.5 million in a personal judgment.
• This case resulted in Ohio’s Collin’s Law, strengthening anti-hazing legislation.
• Relevance: Our $10 million demand in the Bermudez case is directly aligned with this precedent, demonstrating that even with a non-fatal outcome (though equally severe), significant damages are warranted.

Maxwell Gruver – Louisiana State University / Phi Delta Theta (2017)

• Total: $6.1 Million Verdict
• Maxwell Gruver, 18, died from acute alcohol poisoning (BAC 0.495) after being forced to drink heavily in a “Bible Study” hazing ritual.
• A jury awarded his family $6.1 million.
• This case led to the Max Gruver Act, making felony hazing a crime in Louisiana.
• Relevance: It proves that juries are willing to award multi-million dollar verdicts, sending a powerful message about accountability.

Timothy Piazza – Penn State University / Beta Theta Pi (2017)

• Total: $110 Million+ (Estimated)
• Timothy Piazza, 19, died from traumatic brain injury and internal bleeding after falling repeatedly down stairs during a forced drinking “gauntlet.” Fraternity brothers waited 12 hours before calling 911.
• The Piazza family reached confidential settlements totaling an estimated $110 million or more from numerous parties, including the university and fraternity.
• Security cameras captured the entire horrific event, showcasing the power of undeniable evidence. This case led to the Timothy J. Piazza Antihazing Law in Pennsylvania.
• Relevance: When evidence is strong and the conduct is egregious, as in the Bermudez case, settlements can reach truly staggering figures, emphasizing the institutional desire to avoid public trial.

Andrew Coffey – Florida State University / Pi Kappa Phi (2017)

• Total: Confidential Settlement
• Andrew Coffey, 20, died from acute alcohol poisoning after being forced to drink an entire bottle of Wild Turkey bourbon during “Big Brother Night.”
• Relevance: This is the same national fraternity as the Pi Kappa Phi chapter involved in the Bermudez case. Coffey’s death eight years prior proves the national organization had ample notice of its deadly hazing culture and failed to prevent future tragedies like Leonel Bermudez’s hospitalization. This establishes a clear pattern of negligence and allows for punitive damages.

University of Houston / Pi Kappa Alpha (2017)

• Total: $1 Million Lawsuit Filed
• Jared Munoz, a UH pledge, suffered a lacerated spleen due to hazing. A $1 million lawsuit was filed, and a grand jury even indicted the national organization.
• Relevance: The University of Houston had a prior hazing hospitalization on its campus. This means the university had direct knowledge of hazing dangers in its Greek system and failed to implement sufficient safeguards, making Leonel Bermudez’s injuries entirely foreseeable and strengthening UH’s liability.

These cases send an unequivocal message to national fraternities, universities, and individual perpetrators: hazing costs millions. The legal strategies that secured these results are precisely what Attorney911 brings to the table for Early County families.

Texas Law Protects You: Understanding Your Rights

For parents in Early County, understanding the legal framework concerning hazing is crucial. While our firm is based in Texas, the principles of pursuing justice for hazing victims are broadly applicable across the United States. Furthermore, many states, including Georgia, have anti-hazing laws.

Texas Hazing Laws (Education Code § 37.151-37.157):

• Definition of Hazing (§ 37.151): Texas law broadly defines hazing as any intentional, knowing, or reckless act, on or off campus, that endangers a student’s mental or physical health for the purpose of affiliation with an organization. This includes physical brutality, sleep deprivation, exposure to the elements, calisthenics that pose an unreasonable risk, forced consumption of food or alcohol, and activities violating the Penal Code. Every act inflicted upon Leonel Bermudez—from waterboarding and wooden paddles to 500 squats and forced vomiting—falls squarely within this legal definition.
• Criminal Penalties (§ 37.152): Hazing is a crime in Texas. Engaging in hazing is a Class B misdemeanor. Hazing that causes serious bodily injury (like Leonel’s rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure) is a Class A misdemeanor, carrying up to one year in jail. Hazing that causes death is a state jail felony, with penalties up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The fact that the University of Houston spokesperson mentioned “potential criminal charges” underscores the severe legal implications for those involved.
• Organizational Liability (§ 37.153): Organizations can also be penalized, including fines up to $10,000, and denial of the right to operate on campus. This means that both the local chapter and the national organization can face sanctions.
• Consent is NOT a Defense (§ 37.154): This is perhaps the most critical aspect of Texas anti-hazing law. The statute explicitly states: “It is not a defense to prosecution for an offense under this subchapter that the person against whom the hazing was directed consented to or acquiesced in the hazing activity.” This law directly refutes the common fraternity defense that “he knew what he was signing up for” or “he could have left.” Texas lawmakers understood that true consent is impossible in a coercive environment. This is a powerful weapon in civil litigation, allowing us to nullify the defendants’ attempts to shift blame onto the victim.
• Reporting Requirements (§ 37.155): Educational institutions in Texas are legally mandated to report hazing incidents. A failure to report is a Class B misdemeanor, highlighting the serious obligation placed on universities to track and address hazing.

Even if hazing occurs in Early County, Georgia, or any other state, similar laws often exist and can be applied. Furthermore, the civil claims we pursue are often universal legal principles:

• Negligence Claims: Holding individuals and institutions accountable for breaching their duty of care.
• Premises Liability: When hazing occurs on property owned or controlled by universities or fraternities, liability can attach to the property owners.
• Negligent Supervision: When national organizations or universities fail to adequately oversee chapters or student groups.
• Assault and Battery: Direct claims against individuals who physically harmed the victim.
• Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress: For outrageous conduct that causes severe psychological harm.
• Federal Claims: In some instances, hazing can violate federal civil rights laws, allowing us to pursue cases in federal court, regardless of state lines. This is a significant advantage for Attorney911.

Why Attorney911 for Early County Hazing Victims: Our Unfair Advantage

When your child has been subjected to the trauma of hazing, you need legal representation that is not only compassionate but also fiercely aggressive and strategically astute. For families in Early County, Attorney911 offers a unique “unfair advantage” in these complex cases. While our primary offices are in Houston, Austin, and Beaumont, our reach extends nationwide, and we are committed to serving hazing victims in Early County and across America.

1. Unparalleled Litigation Experience: With over 25 years of courtroom experience, Ralph Manginello is a battle-tested trial attorney. Lupe Pena brings over 12 years of his own experience. We’ve handled everything from complex personal injury cases to high-stakes criminal defense, demonstrating our capacity to take on formidable opponents. This proven track record means Early County families get expert representation.

2. Former Insurance Defense Insiders: Both Ralph Manginello and Lupe Pena are former insurance defense attorneys. This is absolutely critical. They spent years working for the insurance companies and corporations, learning their strategies, their tactics, and their weaknesses. They know exactly how the other side thinks, how they value claims, and how they attempt to minimize or deny payouts. Now, they use that insider knowledge to dismantle the defense and maximize recovery for hazing victims. This insight is invaluable when going up against the well-funded legal teams of national fraternities and universities.

3. Federal Court Authority & Dual-State Bar Licensure: Our attorneys are admitted to the U.S. District Courts. This means we can pursue hazing cases in the federal system, which is crucial when dealing with national organizations that operate across state lines. Furthermore, Ralph Manginello is licensed in both Texas and New York, providing a strategic advantage when dealing with national fraternities often headquartered or incorporated in other states. This gives us the reach and authority to pursue justice for Early County victims no matter where the hazing occurred or where the defendants are domiciled.

4. Data-Driven Litigation & Intelligence Database: We don’t guess; we know. Attorney911 maintains one of the most comprehensive private directories of Greek organizations in Texas, including IRS-registered entities, legal names, EINs, and addresses. This intelligence allows us to identify every liable entity immediately, from local chapters and housing corporations to national headquarters.
– Our database includes over 125 Texas-registered Greek organizations, detailing their corporate structures beyond the Greek letters. For example, we track entities like Beta Nu Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Housing Corporation Inc in Frisco, EIN 462267515, which is the entity behind the UH chapter we sued.
– We monitor over 1,423 Greek-related organizations across 25 Texas metropolitan areas. For instance, while Early County might not have a massive Greek system, students from the area often attend universities in metros like Houston (188 Greek organizations), Austin (154 organizations), or Dallas-Fort Worth (510 organizations). We know the landscape where students from Early County are most likely to encounter hazing.
– We meticulously track the hazing history of national fraternities, including documented deaths and multi-million dollar settlements. We know that Pi Kappa Phi, the same fraternity involved in the Bermudez case, had a death (Andrew Coffey) in 2017. This extensive intelligence allows us to approach each case from a position of irrefutable fact and pattern evidence.

5. Comprehensive Approach to Damages: We pursue every possible avenue for compensation, including economic damages (medical bills, lost tuition, lost wages), non-economic damages (physical pain, mental anguish, emotional distress), and punitive damages. Punitive damages are essential in hazing cases like Leonel’s, as they are designed to punish egregious conduct (like waterboarding and forced physical torture) and prevent future harm.

6. Compassionate and Accessible Service: We understand that parents in Early County are facing a nightmare. Our team is bilingual (Se Habla Español) and committed to treating every client like family. We offer free consultations, operate on a contingency fee basis (meaning you pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we win), and offer flexible consultation options, including video calls. For depositions or trials, we are willing to travel to Early County or any necessary location. Distance will never be a barrier to justice.

7. Proven Ability to Take on Giants: Ralph Manginello was involved in the multi-billion dollar mass tort litigation against BP after the 2005 Texas City refinery explosion. This experience shaped our ability to take on massive corporate defendants, a skill directly applicable to confronting national fraternities and large university systems.

For Early County families, choosing Attorney911 means choosing a legal team that has the experience, the insider knowledge, the data, and the fierce determination to fight for your child’s rights and secure the justice they deserve.

What to Do Right Now: Actionable Guidance for Early County Families

If your child has been a victim of hazing, especially in a place like Early County where support systems might feel distant, the moments immediately following the incident are crucial. Taking the right steps can significantly impact the strength of any future legal claim. Here’s what you should do immediately:

1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention, Even for Seemingly Minor Injuries: Hazing often involves hidden injuries or delayed symptoms. Leonel Bermudez’s rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure took days to fully manifest. Brain injuries, internal bleeding, and psychological trauma might not be immediately apparent. Go to a hospital or doctor, explain everything that happened, and ensure all injuries are documented. Do not delay, as delays can be used by defense attorneys to argue that the injuries were not severe or were unrelated to the hazing. If your child attends a university away from Early County, connect them with medical professionals there or bring them home to your trusted healthcare providers.

   • Required Reading: For more details, watch our video, “Why Seeing a Doctor Right After an Accident Is Critical” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCox4Lq7zBM.

2. Preserve All Evidence: Hazing organizations are quick to destroy incriminating evidence. Act fast.

   • Text Messages and Digital Communications: Screenshot everything from GroupMe, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, regular text messages, emails, and any other communication platforms. Save messages from the hazing perpetrators, pledges, and any relevant third parties. These are often the “smoking gun” that proves intent and participation.
   • Photos and Videos: If any photos or videos of the hazing activities exist, save them immediately. Photograph any physical injuries (bruises, marks, burns) at all stages of healing. Take pictures of the location where the hazing occurred (fraternity house, off-campus residence, park, etc.).
   • Documents: Keep any pledge manuals, schedules, rules, or written communications given to your child by the organization.
   • Witness Information: Collect the names and contact information of other pledges, active members who witnessed the hazing, or any bystanders. Their testimony is invaluable.
   • Required Reading: Our video, “Can You Use Your Cellphone to Document a Legal Case?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLbpzrmogTs, provides crucial guidance.

3. DO NOT Communicate with the Fraternity, University, or Their Lawyers: Once hazing is reported, the institution’s priority shifts to damage control and protecting itself. Do not give any statements, sign any documents, or accept any offers without first consulting with an attorney. Anything your child says can and will be used against them.

   • Required Reading: Learn more in our video, “Never Talk to the Insurance Company After an Accident” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLbpzrmogTs, as well as “Client Mistakes That Can Ruin Your Injury Case” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3IYsoxOSxY.

4. DO NOT Post on Social Media About the Incident: Social media posts can severely undermine a legal case. Anything your child posts can be taken out of context by defense attorneys. Even seemingly innocent posts can be twisted into evidence that your child was “fine,” “enjoying college life,” or not as traumatized as claimed. Instruct your child to make their social media accounts private, but do not delete content, as this can be considered spoliation of evidence.

   • Required Reading: Watch our short video, “Don’t Post on Social Media After an Accident” for essential advice.

5. Contact Attorney911 Immediately: The statute of limitations for personal injury and wrongful death cases in most states, including Texas and Georgia, is typically two years from the date of injury or death. This means you have a limited time to file a lawsuit. However, waiting even a few weeks can harm your case as evidence disappears, witnesses forget details, and defense teams solidify their narrative. The Bermudez case was filed within weeks of his hospitalization—this is how quickly you need to act. Our free consultation provides immediate legal guidance.

   • Required Reading: Understand more about these deadlines in “Is There a Statute of Limitations on My Case?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRHwg8tV02c.

6. Remote Consultations and Travel: For families in Early County, Georgia, seeking legal help from a Texas-based firm might seem daunting. However, we routinely handle cases nationwide. We offer confidential phone and video consultations, allowing you to discuss your case from the comfort and privacy of your home in Early County. If your case requires it, we are fully prepared to travel to Early County for depositions, client meetings, and trial. Distance is not a barrier to justice for hazing victims.
