City of Saint Peters, MO asked in Arbitration / Mediation Law, Contracts, Education Law and Internet Law for Missouri

Q: This is a pretty difficult case. It includes 5 people, and the ultimate lawsuit is against ASU. I said no to arbitration

The case starts with discrimination and a huge negligence issue all the way to the Dean of that building. Then the VP of Student affairs emailed me several times (she didn't know I was cc'd) with three employees I don't knit l know, misrepresenting themselves as the President of ASU. There's obviously a lot more to explain and I do have documentation of every thing I just said. I'm in Missouri, my child goes to asu. She is a first year student, and gay. It was not discrimination from other kids. It was very high up, the highest up, in the university. I was just about to file it anyway. A motion with Order to Show cause. Obviously I don't have money to fight a university. Any advice?

A: All I can discern from your post is the your child was the victim of some sort of discrimination based on sexual orientation and that you cannot afford to pay an attorney by the hour to represent her. I suggest you contact some attorneys who handle discrimination matters and see if anyone would agree to represent your daughter on a contingency basis.
