Hazing Lawyer for Henry County, Alabama – Attorney 911 Fights for Victims

Henry County Families: Your Child Was Hazed – We Can Help

If your son or daughter was hazed at a fraternity, sorority, sports team, or student organization in Henry County, Alabama, you are not alone. Hazing is not “tradition” – it’s abuse. It’s illegal. And it can cause permanent physical and psychological harm.

At Attorney 911, we are actively fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston – and we are ready to bring that same aggressive representation to Henry County families.

🚨 This Could Be Happening in Henry County Right Now

The same fraternities that hazed our client in Texas have chapters near Henry County. The same universities that failed to protect students in Texas operate in Alabama. And the same culture of abuse that put a student in the hospital exists right here in Henry County.

If your child was hazed in Henry County, we will fight for you.

📍 Hazing in Henry County, Alabama – The Reality

Henry County is home to Troy University’s Dothan Campus, a major educational hub serving students from Abbeville, Headland, Dothan, and surrounding communities. With a strong Greek life presence and active student organizations, hazing is a real and present danger for Henry County students.

🏛️ Universities & Colleges Near Henry County with Greek Life

While Henry County itself does not have a large university, students from the area attend schools with active Greek organizations, including:

  • Troy University (Dothan Campus) – Home to multiple fraternities and sororities
  • Wallace Community College (Dothan) – Student organizations with initiation rituals
  • Alabama State University (Montgomery, ~90 miles away) – Major Greek life presence
  • Auburn University (~100 miles away) – One of Alabama’s largest Greek systems
  • University of Alabama (~180 miles away) – National fraternities with documented hazing histories

These same organizations operate in Henry County – and they bring the same risks.

💔 What Hazing Looks Like in Henry County

Hazing isn’t just “a little roughhousing.” 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
Made to eat until he vomited, then forced to continue running
Hospitalized for 4 days with kidney failure

This isn’t tradition. It’s torture.

And it’s happening in Henry County.

⚖️ Alabama Hazing Laws – What You Need to Know

Alabama has strong anti-hazing laws that protect students. Under Alabama Code § 16-1-23, hazing is a Class C misdemeanor, punishable by:

  • Up to 3 months in jail
  • Fines up to $500

But the law goes further:

  • Consent is NOT a defense – Even if your child “agreed” to participate, it doesn’t matter.
  • Organizations can be held liable – Fraternities, sororities, and universities can be sued.
  • Individuals can be sued personally – Chapter leaders, members, and even alumni can be held accountable.

If your child was hazed in Henry County, you have legal rights – and we can help you enforce them.

💰 Hazing Cases Win Millions – Henry County Victims Deserve Justice

Hazing lawsuits have resulted in multi-million-dollar settlements and verdicts across the country. In our current case, we are seeking $10 million for a student who was hospitalized due to fraternity hazing.

📊 Recent Hazing Settlements & Verdicts

Case University Fraternity Outcome Amount
Stone Foltz Bowling Green State Pi Kappa Alpha Settlement $10.1M+
Maxwell Gruver Louisiana State Phi Delta Theta Jury Verdict $6.1M
Timothy Piazza Penn State Beta Theta Pi Settlement $110M+
Adam Oakes Virginia Commonwealth Delta Chi Settlement $4M+
Leonel Bermudez University of Houston Pi Kappa Phi $10M Lawsuit Pending $10M Sought

These cases prove that hazing victims and their families can win – and win big.

If your child was hazed in Henry County, we will fight for the maximum compensation possible.

🔍 How We Prove a Hazing Case in Henry County

To win a hazing lawsuit, we must prove:

  1. The organization engaged in hazing (physical abuse, forced consumption, sleep deprivation, etc.)
  2. The hazing caused harm (injuries, hospitalization, psychological trauma)
  3. The university or national organization knew or should have known about the hazing

📋 Evidence We Use in Hazing Cases

Photos/Videos Injuries, hazing activities, fraternity house
Text Messages Group chats, threats, admissions of hazing

We know how to gather and present this evidence to build a winning case for Henry County families.
