Representative Experience
  • Represented a university student accused of gender-based harassment and bullying. Following a formal investigation and negotiation, the complaint was withdrawn, and our client’s record was cleared.
  • Represented a pre-medical student accused of academic integrity violation through misuse of generative artificial intelligence (ChatGPT). The outcome of the case would affect the student’s medical school applications. After a hearing, our client was found not responsible for the alleged violation.
