Call Now To Speak With Me Immediately

You Might Be Scared And Don’t Know What To Do. You have questions and need answers fast. You’ll get them from a lawyer with 20 years experience and an understanding of the college disciplinary system.


What about my future?

At a time like this, it’s normal to be frightened of what might happen, and it’s understandable to be worried and fearful for the future. These things can have life-defining impact, and you’re rightfully concerned about how it might affect the rest of your college career. And then there’s graduate school, and chances for future employment. And your parents.

It’s time to get the facts.

Begin with complete and total understanding of how serious the charge is, what the potential punishments could be, and how best to help yourself. My advice is to speak with someone that can provide all of that. We’re available to talk 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Your initial phone consultation is at no charge. Call me. It’s what we do.

Three things to know.

Your rights and ability to defend yourself are whatever the educational institution say they are. It’s not a court of law. People judging you aren’t qualified and fairness is no sure thing.

You can’t trust the school to handle your case fairly. Or trust the school to issue a fair and just punishment.

Legal advice is your best chance for the best outcome.

It’s not the time to panic.

And it’s also no time to guess, or to rely on what school officials advise. Or even worse, to follow the advice of a friend that went through something similar. However well-intended their advice may be, you need a professional to get the facts, gather information and offer experienced help. You may or may not need a lawyer, but you need legal advice and guidance – right away.

The advice you need.

Bad advice and anecdotal wisdom, even with good intentions from a trusted the source, is what you don’t need. Friends and family may think they know how things work and how things will go, but they don’t. In fairness, many lawyers wouldn’t know, either, because they haven’t defended accused parties at decades of hearings at dozens of institutions.

School Disciplinary Hearings

Don’t expect the protections you’d find in a court of law; school disciplinary proceedings are very different. Schools aren’t concerned with due process. Accused parties often have limited ability to defend themselves. A panel decides your fate – employees and students. They’re essentially untrained and, if school employees, hardly impartial.

What You Can Expect From Me

If it’s minor infraction or something that will end with little punishment, you may not need a lawyer. But if you do, I’ll begin gathering the facts and the evidence to mount a swift, sound and consistent defense from the beginning and throughout the process. My Criminal Defense experience gives me a decided advantage in helping students accused of wrongdoing.

Beginning your defense

Experienced legal advice is urgently needed if you want a fair hearing and just results. But these cases are fast-moving so you have to understand that you’re in a fluid, right-now situation. I get to work right away and as soon as I’m hired I take immediate action:

• We will meet or have an extensive audio or video call.
• I’ll instruct you not to communicate in any way with school personnel or anyone involved in the incident until we’ve constructed a strategy to deal with the school.
• We’ll discuss the incident in depth so I fully understand what happened, to begin to crafting your defense
• I determine if there is evidence to gather, witness statements to take, or if a private investigator experienced in working in the college environment is required.
• I will undertake a comprehensive review of the School’s Code of Conduct.

Mr. Limmer was very professional, knowledgeable and reassuring during a very unsettling time for my son (and family). Scott has experience in dealing with college based disciplinary claims and was very available to both my son and myself to offer practical, wise advice. He was easy and very 'real' to talk to, helping my son get the best outcome from a difficult situation. We appreciated his help and would recommend him without hesitation.
