🔍 What Is Hazing? LaGrange County Needs to Know

Hazing isn’t “boys being boys.” It isn’t “tradition.” It’s abuse. In our current case, a LaGrange County-area student could have faced:

• Waterboarding — simulated drowning with a garden hose
• 500 squats — forced until muscles break down
• Wooden paddles — physical beating
• Forced eating — until vomiting
• Extreme exhaustion — forced exercise until collapse

This isn’t tradition. This is torture.

📚 LaGrange County Universities: The Same Fraternities Are Here

The same national fraternities involved in our Houston case have chapters at universities near LaGrange County:

• Pi Kappa Phi
• Sigma Alpha Epsilon
• Sigma Chi
• Phi Delta Theta
• Kappa Sigma
• And many more

If they’re hazing at University of Houston, they’re hazing at LaGrange County-area schools.

2. You Can Hold Multiple Parties Accountable

❓ Frequently Asked Questions for LaGrange County Families

Q: My child was hazed but doesn’t want to sue. Should we still call?

A: Yes. Consultations are free and confidential. We can explain your options and help you decide what’s best for your family.

Q: Will suing affect my child’s college enrollment?

A: No. Universities cannot retaliate against students for exercising their legal rights. We protect our clients from retaliation.

Q: We’re not in Houston. Can you still help us?

A: Absolutely. We represent hazing victims nationwide, including LaGrange County. We offer video consultations and travel as needed.

Q: How much does it cost to hire you?

A: Nothing upfront. We work on contingency — we only get paid if we win your case. Our fee comes from the settlement or verdict.

Q: What if the fraternity says it was “just tradition”?

A: Tradition is not a legal defense. Indiana law makes hazing illegal regardless of “tradition.” We’ve seen this argument before and know how to defeat it.

Q: Can we sue if our child “consented” to hazing?

A: Yes. Indiana law explicitly states that consent is NOT a defense to hazing. Even if your child agreed to participate, they can still sue.

Q: What if the hazing happened off-campus?

A: It doesn’t matter. Hazing is illegal whether it happens on or off campus. We can pursue the fraternity, individuals, and property owners.

Q: Can we sue the national fraternity organization?

A: Yes. National organizations often have deep pockets and insurance coverage. They can be held liable for failing to supervise local chapters.

Q: What if the university knew about hazing and did nothing?

A: That makes them liable too. Universities have a duty to protect students. If they knew about hazing and failed to act, we can sue them.

Q: How long do we have to file a lawsuit?

A: Generally 2 years from the date of injury in Indiana. However, it’s best to act immediately to preserve evidence and protect your rights.
