Title IX Abuse Lawyers in New Jersey – Civil Representation for College and High School Students Facing Sexual Harassment or Assault in Academic Environments

Sexual abuse and harassment have no place in education—but too often, New Jersey schools and universities fail to protect their students. Title IX is a federal law that requires institutions to address sexual violence and discrimination. When they don’t, survivors have the right to take legal action.

At Survivors of Abuse NJ, our Title IX sexual abuse attorneys represent students who were sexually abused and either ignored or retaliated against by their schools. Whether you’re a high school student, college athlete, or graduate student, we can help you navigate your rights under Title IX and pursue compensation through a civil lawsuit.

Examples of Title IX Violations Related to Sexual Abuse

Title IX claims can stem from:

  • Sexual assault or rape on school property

  • Inappropriate behavior by teachers or staff

  • Peer-on-peer abuse that the school fails to address

  • Harassment in dorms, locker rooms, or on sports teams

  • Retaliation for reporting misconduct or filing a complaint

Even if you’ve gone through a school disciplinary process, you may still have grounds for a civil case—especially if the investigation was mishandled or biased.

Your Legal Rights as a Survivor

Under Title IX and New Jersey law, you may be entitled to:

  • Damages for pain, suffering, and trauma

  • Reimbursement for counseling and therapy

  • Compensation for lost tuition, academic delays, or withdrawal

  • Punitive damages if your rights were willfully ignored

  • Accountability for your abuser and the institution that failed to act

You don’t need to go through this process alone. Our team is here to support you at every step.

Accountable Institutions May Include:

  • Colleges, universities, and professional schools

  • High schools, charter schools, and private institutions

  • Sports programs and NCAA-sanctioned teams

  • School boards and administrators

We investigate every angle to determine if your school failed its legal duties under Title IX.
