We were lead counsel for the estate and family of Philip Dhanens for a wrongful death lawsuit resulting from fraternity hazing by the Theta Chi Fraternity chapter at California State University at Fresno.

Fraternity pledges were compelled to drink dangerous amounts of alcohol on the evening they accepted their bid to pledge the fraternity.

Philip collapsed and was not taken to the hospital or properly monitored by fraternity members.

The case against all defendants, including the national fraternity, local chapter, and members, was resolved for a confidential significant financial amount at mediation.
