I highly recommend Tessa Muir for her outstanding work on my Title IX case. Tessa is impressively thorough, detail-oriented, and proactive, staying on top of every detail throughout. Her realistic insights and clear guidance were invaluable, helping me navigate the case smoothly and reach a successful resolution efficiently. Her professionalism and dedication made a challenging process much easier, and I’m grateful for her support from start to finish.

Tessa was the best possible lawyer I could ask for. She listened to what I had to say and helped me through an extremely stressful situation. She did amazing work and won me my case. Best lawyer anyone could ask for.

Tessa was amazing throughout the whole process, from the very beginning, to the hearing. She is a great listener and someone who can help/make you feel comfortable whatever the situation you are in. Tessa covered every base and went over any angle that may have been tried. She even wrote a ending statement that made myself shed a few tears with how well she portrayed my thoughts and feelings. 10/10

My 11 year old Autistic son had a Title IX complaint made against him. I was stressed and confused by the whole incident and process. Tessa was able to walk me through everything and put my mind at ease. She quickly responded to any questions that I had. She fought for my son like he was her own and we received a positive outcome. I would highly recommend Tessa and SBBL!

The situation I found myself was defending made up allegation by a student that led to a Title IX investigation in which the law firm for the school inappropriately opened up the investigation and then tried to get me to resign as the easiest way to deal with a situation! However, after a lengthy battle with Tessa Muir on my side the school admitted to the mistakes they and the their law firm had made! I returned to work protocols in place to protect other staff and myself in the future!

I consulted three different attorney’s that specialized in Title IX defense. Tessa was the last one I consulted and was hands down the best. I immediately signed a retainer. Tessa told me what to expect as I was going through the process. She was able to reassure me and was supportive during a very tough time. She was easy to talk to, to be honest with, and clearly had the expertise I required. She was very direct and honest. She responded quickly when I had questions or concerns. She is thorough and kept me updated on progress. Tessa is clearly a leader in her field. My case was dropped within a week. I was very lucky to have her on my side.

Tessa Muir was confident, reassuring, thorough, and excellent in her defense of my son in a Title IX action. The result could not possibly have been better. Her communication was clear and timely. I strongly recommend her for any Title IX case.

We hired Tessa for my Title IX case at my university and she did a marvelous job navigating me and my family through the entire process, walking me through the entire process, what to expect, how to gather evidence, and how to go about the hearing. Her expertise was second to none and ensured for me that a dangerous lie would not become truth at my school. Title IX is a crazy process, but having Tessa was was the best possible solution for getting me through it! I connot recommend her enough!

Tessa was a God send to help me navigate a title IX case. I was wrongfully accused of sexual assault and needed someone to defend me. Tessa was super professional and explained everything about the process to me. She sat me down and we discussed the events in detail and was able to provide the University with a detailed description of my side of the story. After a couple weeks, the accuser dropped the case! I am so glad I was able to work with Tessa because the title IX procedures can be very overwhelming and confusing, but she was able to take the pressure off of me and use her expertise to represent me.

Tessa was very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable and confident in her ability to get the answers I needed she was responsive and very thorough in the work she did for me.. I know for sure I made the right decision working with her and would do so again if ever I found myself needing these type of services or consultation.

I hired Tessa as my attorney to defend me in a criminal case. She is very sharp!!! She asked many questions about the incident that happened and wanted details. I gave her details and she matched them up to what the police report claimed. The outcome was great. Plea bargained and the outcome was better than I ever anticipated. It was a painless experience and it went very smooth. She is easy to talk to and I feel she is very experienced. Her staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. She is very fair.... I actually got a refund !! I didn't use all the initial retainer fees, so it was refunded. I would certainly use here again to defend me or any family member in the future. Thank you Tessa.

We were confronted with a situation no parent wants, false accusations of sexual harassment. But not just that, our child was 10. Our son’s story never changed, however the ‘victim’ story fluctuated. As parents who have seen a lot during career work, we were not willing to allow for an unguided allowance of the schools investigation. We searched out legal teams for this issue, to which we found to be minimal in comparison to other areas of law. After interviewing two firms, one a rabid dog, the other a well behaved guard dog, we opted for that guard dog. Tessa was amazing at explaining the process, keeping us informed of procedural irregularities or just being receptive to the nonsense put on paper by this school district. We were able to point out and complete some work on our own to keep the billable hours to what we needed Tessa to complete in regards to legal matters, but our involvement was more informational pointing out the inconsistencies of the school’s investigation. Tessa completed all needed work timely and her involvement did not extend the process, even when the school messed up and caused delay. Each person we dealt with at SBBL was courteous and kind. Payment was easy and connecting with our team was flawless! Due to the diligent work of Tessa and her team, we had the decision of Not Responsible, which was touch and go with how the school handled the investigation! I would recommend Tessa to any parent or student who needs legal counsel in relation to Title IX!
