The Oliveros Law Group: Your Title IX Advocates
Championing a Decade-Long Legacy in Defending Survivors’ Rights
For over 15 years, The Oliveros Law Group has been at the forefront, representing student victims of sexual assault and harassment. Our unwavering belief is that everyone deserves an education devoid of the shadow of sexual violence, and that schools must be held accountable for providing a safe haven for their students.
Regrettably, when biases favor perpetrators or institutions prioritize reputation or athletic success over student welfare, survivors require resolute advocates to uphold their rights under the law. Title IX grants students (and, in many cases, their parents) the avenue to initiate legal action against schools that overlook or enable issues of sexual assault and harassment. Such actions may result in monetary damages for survivors, as well as induce transformative policy changes and shifts in institutional culture.
Our firm specializes in representing complainants in campus Title IX proceedings, bolstering survivors through civil litigation, and advocating against gender discrimination. In addition to our unparalleled expertise in Title IX litigation, we offer comprehensive victim representation, grounded in a client-centered, trauma-informed approach.
Title IX: Ensuring Equality in Education
The First Comprehensive Federal Law Against Gender Discrimination
Title IX, a pivotal provision of the Education Amendments of 1972, stands as the pioneering federal law to thwart gender-based discrimination within the corridors of educational institutions. It is one among numerous state and federal antidiscrimination laws crafted to define and safeguard equality in the realm of education. The regulations established under Title IX in 1975 steadfastly combat discrimination, exclusion, denial, limitation, or segregation on the grounds of gender. Title IX unequivocally declares:
“No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”
Under the purview of Title IX, it is imperative that each school district designates at least one individual as the Title IX Coordinator.
