Omaha, NE asked in Copyright, Criminal Law, Personal Injury and Products Liability for Nebraska

Q: Hello! There is someone accusing me of rape to the university

I have an issue going on at (X) University. The university decision wont be based on facts. They said if it is more likely that you might did that then they will dismiss me from the school. They already have effected my mental illness, my life, and my school performance. I am planning on gathering all the evidences that I have given them and file a suit against the university and the student who reported me to destroy my life. How do you think I should I take the case to the court and what title of lawyer will be the best to handle this case. I have explained to them everything and provide whatever they asked for, but I do not trust them anymore. They seemed like they are supporting the girl more than looking into the real evidences. I need a lawyer to follow the case at the university and if he decided to go to the court, I will go there.

A: If you have a situation that involves both potential criminal charges and a disciplinary issue with an university, you will want to contact an attorney that has experience with both criminal defense cases and school disciplinary issues.
