Testimonials

You both made a difficult time much easier...

Thank you for the update regarding the end of [my] case and thank you again for everything that you have helped me with. You both made a difficult time much easier and helped me feel supported throughout the entire process. I can’t thank you enough!

You are the utmost professional counselor.

On behalf of my family and me, I would like to thank you for the excellent guidance you provided to us. You are the utmost professional counselor. We are grateful for your expertise during a difficult time.

I was a member of a fraternity at a public university that was kicked off campus for reported hazing…

I was a member of a fraternity at a public university that was kicked off campus for reported hazing… That’s when I contacted Susan and Kristina, who were extremely helpful and wonderful to work with. Thanks to them they helped guide me through collecting proof of my innocence, which ended up leading to the result we wanted of no charges against me. I highly recommend their service to anyone who might need it!

We feel so fortunate that we were able to connect with you

When we found out about [OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT’S] intent to expel [OUR SON] we were disappointed in the school district and we were terrified of what it meant for [OUR SON].  We feel so fortunate that we were able to connect with you.  On short notice you took the time to meet with us and gain a deep understanding of…his challenges.  You were able to see beyond [OUR SON’S] behavioral difficulties and see him as the bright, inquisitive boy that he is.

We were impressed with how easily you navigated the challenge of working with the staff… and the attorneys representing the district.  Without your representation there is no question that there would be unresolved issues related to [OUR SON’S] education and further legal hurdles to overcome with the school district.

Enough cannot be said for how helpful KJK was for me during my allegation process.

Susan and Kristina were extremely knowledgeable and passionate toward my specific case. They consistently had steps of action to take in my defense and were extremely flexible when working with me. They helped prepare me, both mentally and emotionally, prior to my hearing. Thanks to their hard work, I now have my future back.”

– Successfully defended a pre-med undergraduate student for alleged cheating on a physics lab report and showed that the professor had made a critical error in basic mathematics.

Allow me to take this time to thank you for all of your hard work...

expertise and understanding toward clearing our son’s record and allowing him to resume his life without this undeserved burden. I could sense from our first meeting, your work in this area is not just an avocation, but a passion to affect change in the way these cases are decided. Your professionalism throughout the process was exceptional, especially with regard to your communications with me. I have never worked with an attorney group which made unprovoked calls to update us on the progress of our efforts!

Susan Stone and Kristina Supler represented our male college freshman against a false Title IX claim

of non-consensual sexual intercourse. Current Title IX laws are strongly slanted in the accuser’s favor, and our son was denied due process by the university. This legal team expertly highlighted the accuser’s false accusations, while exposing the university’s many inconsistencies. They were there when we needed them – quick to take our phone calls or respond to our questions and concerns. Without their expert legal advice, our son would have likely been another silent and unfortunate victim of current Title IX university policies. We give Susan and Kristina the highest of recommendations!

Susan and Kristina are great lawyers.

They helped me resolve an extremely difficult academic dishonesty accusation case against me at the university level. They had helpful ideas and were persistent in making sure my defense was the best it could be. They were creative in their way of utilizing outside resources that helped achieve a positive outcome. Good, prompt responses to my questions. I highly recommend them!

The team that Susan Stone put together for me and my son was strong, passionate, knowledgeable and determined.

Together, they helped us build a strong IEP and gain one-on-one tutoring during school, all of which I am confident will help my son reach his full potential and then some! I could not be more thankful for my time with Susan, Kirsten and Vivian.

I am very grateful for all of the hard work Susan and her team put into defending me...

against a difficult situation with the school. They had very helpful opinions and were very tenacious in making sure my defense was the absolute best it could be. Susan and her team are very satisfactory and experienced, and they treated us with such compassion and integrity. They were very creative in helping find resources to help achieve a favorable outcome. They are very professional and always have informative responses to my questions. I highly recommend this team!!

– Successfully prevailed in an expulsion hearing and kept student in school after serious allegations of misconduct.

KJK guided us through a very difficult time in our lives...

and provided support that helped beyond the original request. The firm and advocate worked as a team to ensure a proper diagnosis, ETR and IEP. They were coordinated, communicative and confident. Their commitment to results and concern for our son was evident throughout the process.

Thank you for always working to understand the full situation and for exploring the entirety of issues at hand.

Thank you for always being supportive and for providing a productive, positive environment for working with us and most importantly, my son. I’m sure that he learned a lot from this situation, and we would not have been able to navigate without the help of both of you. Thank you for being tirelessly committed and for pursuing the best possible outcome.

– Obtained reversal of discipline sanction in housing misconduct matter.

We are very grateful for all the hard work that Susan, Kristina and her team put into a rather difficult case.

Our son was put in a very difficult situation while playing sports at the College level. His strength and conditioning coach recommended a pre-workout substance that he said was NCAA approved to use before working out. After submitting to a random drug test, he tested positive for that exact substance and was then suspended. Susan and Kristina represented our son during the NCAA appeal process. Ultimately, his suspension was overturned and he returned to the sport he loves. Thank you again.

Thank you all very much for your guidance throughout this 504 process.

We really appreciate it. We are happy with the result and feel a great deal more at ease that our child has a proper 504 plan guiding her school’s staff and administration. 

Kristina and Susan are very competent and experienced attorneys...

in Title IX and higher education law who treat their clients with integrity and compassion. Highly recommend this team!

We will be forever grateful to you for engaging with us to assist our son...

We cannot thank you enough for your prompt and professional services on our behalf. You accomplished an amazing feat in just a few months. We are so grateful. You followed up on every issue and kept us informed throughout the process. It has been wonderful working with such competent attorneys as you have been. We will be forever grateful to you for engaging with us to assist our son in this most difficult situation.

A Note of Huge gratitude to the both of you for your work, support and empathy.

I wanted to try and put into words my gratitude for your service, empathy and support during the most challenging days and weeks of our lives this month. To say that I am ecstatic and pleasantly shocked about this outcome would be an understatement! We are so pleased as this was the absolute most positive decision that could have occurred. I just wanted to put down in writing how grateful I am, personally, and how much we appreciate every step that you each took as individuals and collectively on my daughter’s behalf.

Words cannot express my gratitude for your work with me.

I understand that this case was sensitive, and I appreciate your expertise as well as your ability to be rational and matter of fact with me. I am blessed to have a family who love and support me and enabled me to be supported by you two. You both have given me a second chance and I’ll never forget that nor take it for granted.

I reached out to Susan and Kristina in a moment of true crisis relating to a Title IX case.

From my first conversation with them to the last, “excellence personified” are the words that come to mind. Both Kristina and Susan were empathizing, knowledgeable, attentive, and thorough in a way that put my mind at ease. Throughout my case, which lasted for several months, they were communicative and detail-oriented. They helped me throughout the process and made sure I was completely prepared for each meeting with the investigator/board. Their balanced teamwork and high level of integrity helped shine a light on the truth and achieve a favorable outcome. I can’t thank Susan and Kristina enough and recommend the expertise of the KJK team for all matters relating to Student Defense.

I would highly recommend and urge any student who is engaged in the Title IX process to use KJK’s attorney services.

Over the past few months, I was personally accused of false allegations and obtaining the help of Susan Stone and Kristina Supler was the absolute best decision I made. They handled my case with absolute professionalism and urgency, leading to the dismissal of all allegations. As a team they never sugar-coated the situation and kept me informed at all times of what the process would look like and were specific in their needs from me. Their honesty and understanding of the system brought great comfort to me. The Title IX process can have extremely serious implications on a student’s future opportunities and having Susan and Kristina on your team gives you the best chance for a positive outcome. I cannot recommend this team enough.

I am extremely pleased with the end result due to their hard work and legal expertise...

When I was notified by the school district’s superintendent that a pre-discipline meeting was scheduled after I was involved in an incident at work,  I knew that there was a possibility that I could be terminated.  I turned to attorneys Susan Stone and Kristina Supler and my decision to retain their services changed the course of my life both professionally and personally.  Their team approach of providing two attorneys rather than just one was reassuring to me because their availability was extraordinary.  They handled all of the legal details in negotiating my severance package as well as provided me with the guidance and legal support when I needed it.  Their ability to talk me “off a ledge” when I found myself overwhelmed at times made a difference in the way I was able to get through the nuances of a complicated school district process.  I am extremely pleased with the end result due to their hard work and legal expertise.

Susan and Kristina helped me and my family navigate the toughest period of my life...

I can’t imagine not having them on my team during my Title IX investigation process. They both offered professional, knowledgeable, and genuine support throughout the process. They were very hands-on and involved throughout every step of the investigation. Moreover, both of them were easy to contact and responded promptly to any questions I had. I strongly recommend Kristina and Susan to anyone considering working with them. 

Thank you both for everything you’ve done to get me to this place and all the guidance you provided...

It’s likely I would be deep in the formal resolution on my way to suspension/expulsion at this point if it weren’t for you. This outcome has honestly saved my career, education, and mental health in tremendous ways which I’m incredibly grateful for. Thank you for all you do, I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s been impacted by you both.

Thank you so much for helping me in my OIEC case...

It is clear that you care about what you do, and I want you to know that you are appreciated. You are doing important work. I feel heard because of you and that makes a world of difference.

I was accused of a very serious Title IX misconduct allegation and Kristina and Susan served as my advisor through the entire process...

Because of their expertise, I was found innocent of all allegations. I could not have made a better decision choosing them to represent me. Their representation is worth every single penny. Kristina and Susan were professional at all times and gave my case a sense of urgency. They were always quick to respond to information from my university and to myself as well. The process they use is one that they have mastered. They thoroughly prepared me for interviews, meetings, and the hearing, and found information and connections in evidence that I would not have been able to find myself. I spoke to other lawyers before choosing Susan and Kristina and I really do believe that if I went with any other lawyer, the outcome would have been different. If you have a Title IX allegation against you, choose Kristina and Susan. They are the best of the best at what they do and you’re not just a case number to them, they treat you as if you’re a friend that needs help.

Thank you for assisting [our son] throughout the informal resolution process...

I know he felt supported by you during this process and being able to rely on your expertise relieved some of the stress. We were confident in placing the matter in your hands and are glad it has now been resolved.

Thank you doesn't seem to be enough but know that I am thankful and grateful for all that you did...

I just wanted to tell you that once I have that degree in my hands knowing you helped make it happen will never be forgotten. I will update you on my future goals/accomplishments and any future clients of [Anna’s] definitely are in good hands.

Working with Susan and Kristina has been a wonderful experience.

They not only respectfully answer my many questions but work diligently to ensure our best chance of success. Thank you, Susan and Kristina!

Kristina and Susan provided us with invaluable advice and assistance.

They are professional, knowledgeable, and experienced, and were very responsive to our situation and questions. Thanks to their guidance and hard work, we were able to achieve a positive outcome. We are grateful to them for all their help. We highly recommend them.

I was incredibly stressed out with the situation I was in, but [Susan and Kristina] guided me through how to defend myself step by step.

With the information I was able to gather, I was given clear instruction on how to communicate and talk to the investigator. The help I received allowed me to present myself in the best possible way, and I was found not responsible as a result.

When I was wrongfully accused in a Title IX complaint to my university, Anna Bullock did a great job representing and supporting me at every step.

She helped me edit my written statement, asked all the right questions to prepare me for the investigator’s interview, and advised me during the interview. Thankfully, the case was dismissed without a hearing, and the peace of mind that Anna provided throughout the process was worth every penny. I would highly recommend Anna to any colleague who is in a similar situation.
