🚨 Hazing Lawyers for Sharp County Families: Justice for Victims of Fraternity & Sorority Abuse

Sharp County parents, students, and families: If your child has been hazed at a college or university near Sharp County, you are not alone. Attorney 911 is currently fighting a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston for the hazing that hospitalized a student with kidney failure. We will bring the same aggressive representation to Sharp County families.

⚠️ The Hazing Crisis in Sharp County

Hazing isn’t just a problem at big universities—it happens right here in Arkansas. The same national fraternities and sororities that operate at major universities maintain chapters at colleges and universities near Sharp County. The same dangerous traditions exist here.

What Sharp County Families Need to Know About Hazing

Hazing takes many forms, but it always involves abuse disguised as “tradition.” In our current case, a University of Houston student was:

• Waterboarded with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
• Forced to do 500 squats and 100 pushups until he couldn’t stand
• Struck with wooden paddles
• Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to continue running
• Deprived of sleep for days
• Hospitalized with rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure for 4 days

This isn’t tradition. This is torture.

And it’s happening at colleges near Sharp County.

⚖️ Your Legal Rights as a Sharp County Hazing Victim

Many Sharp County families don’t realize that hazing victims have strong legal rights. You can sue for:

Physical Injuries:

• Broken bones
• Burns
• Rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown)
• Kidney failure
• Alcohol poisoning
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Sexual assault injuries

Psychological Trauma:

• PTSD
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Suicidal thoughts
• Trust issues
• Academic decline

Who Can Be Held Liable:

• The local fraternity/sorority chapter – They organized and conducted the hazing
• The national organization – They failed to supervise and prevent hazing despite knowing about dangerous culture
• The university/college – They failed to protect students despite having the power to stop hazing
• Individual members – Those who participated in or facilitated hazing
• Alumni and property owners – Those who allowed hazing to occur at their homes

Damages You Can Recover:

• Medical bills (past and future)
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Punitive damages (to punish the wrongdoers)

Important: In Arkansas, consent is not a defense to hazing. Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the law says that doesn’t matter. Hazing is illegal regardless of consent.
