Hazing at Texas Universities: A Complete Legal Guide for Corrigan Families If Your Child Was Hazed in Texas, You're Not Alone—and You Have Rights For parents in Corrigan and across Polk County, sending your child to college represents hope, opportunity, and pride. You've watched them grow up in our close-knit community, attended their games at Corrigan High School, and dreamed of their success at Texas universities. But for some Corrigan families, that dream turns into a nightmare when their child encounters hazing—hidden rituals of abuse, humiliation, and danger that can leave permanent physical and psychological scars. Right now, just a few hours from Corrigan in Houston, we're fighting one of the most serious hazing cases in Texas history. Leonel Bermudez, a University of Houston student, was hospitalized for four days with acute kidney failure after allegedly being hazed by the Pi Kappa Phi Beta Nu chapter. According to a $10 million lawsuit filed in late 2025, Bermudez endured forced consumption of milk, hot dogs, and peppercorns until vomiting, was sprayed in the face with a hose "similar to waterboarding," and was forced through extreme workouts including 100+ push-ups and 500 squats. His urine turned brown from rhabdomyolysis—severe muscle breakdown—requiring emergency…

Austin State University—just over thirty miles from your home in Seven Oaks—or perhaps at the University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M, or another Texas campus. They joined a fraternity, sorority, or campus organization hoping for friendship and belonging. Instead, what began as a promising college experience has turned into something dark. You notice unexplained injuries during their weekend visit home. Their personality has changed—they’re anxious, withdrawn, and jump at their phone's notifications. They dismiss your concerns with vague excuses about "team bonding" or "chapter traditions." But as a parent in Seven Oaks, in the heart of Polk County, your instinct tells you something is very wrong. This scenario is not hypothetical. Right now, in our own state, we are actively litigating one of the most serious hazing cases in the country.

Hazing in Texas: A Legal Guide for Goodrich Families and Students When a Night of "Tradition" Becomes a Medical Emergency: What Goodrich Families Need to Know Right Now It’s a fall evening in Goodrich, Texas. Your child, a determined freshman at a university hours away, has just accepted a bid to join an organization promising brotherhood, sisterhood, and lifelong bonds. Weeks later, a cryptic text mentions “mandatory study sessions” that run past midnight.

Then, the worst call comes—the one from a hospital, where your child is being treated for acute kidney failure after a “pledge workout.” You feel shock, anger, and a profound sense of helplessness. The university says they’re investigating. The fraternity national headquarters issues a statement about “zero tolerance.” But your child is the one in the hospital bed. What do you do now? This is not a hypothetical scenario for Texas families. Right now, in Houston, our firm is actively litigating one of the most serious hazing cases in the country—the Leonel Bermudez v.

Hazing at Texas Universities: A Complete Guide for Bovina & Texas Panhandle Families Seeking Justice The Phone Call Every Bovina Parent Dreads It starts with a late-night call from your child at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, just 90 minutes from home. Their voice is different—strained, anxious, not quite telling you everything. Maybe they mention "mandatory study sessions" that keep them up until 3 AM. Maybe they joke about ridiculous "pledge tasks" that don't sound funny at all. Or perhaps you see the photos on social media: your son in humiliating costumes, your daughter exhausted in group chats that ping constantly. For parents in Bovina, Muleshoe, Friona, and across the Texas Panhandle, this isn't just college mischief—it's the beginning of a nightmare that Texas law recognizes as hazing, and it's happening right now at universities where our Panhandle kids enroll.
