"I left a message at Mr. Phelps’ office concerning my son being accused of academic misconduct at college.
Within an hour of that call, Mr. Phelps personally returned my call. He consulted with my family for nearly two hours concerning the situation. Mr. Phelps tone and words were honest but reassuring. He was able to give us immeasurably valuable insight and advice that literally helped save my son’s college future."

"Shane Phelps provided counsel in a DWI case arising in College Station involving my college-aged child while a student at Texas A&M.
Ultimately, he achieved a very good outcome including waiver of the DWI charge, and has allowed my child to move on to life after graduation with minimal permanent impact with regard to reputation and professional career."
Satisfied Client
"We came to his office with our high school student, who after an arrest for a moment of poor judgement, was weighed down with the thought of this mistake following them for the rest of their life and limiting college and career opportunities.
Shane quickly put us at ease… our high school graduate is off to college to pursue those dreams with no shadow of a tarnished record hanging overhead."

A student conduct charge can put your education at risk. Texas schools can suspend or expel students and cancel scholarships or housing. Under Texas Education Code §51.9364, a finding that bars you from reenrolling is noted on your transcript, and withdrawing will not end the case.
What you say early matters. Statements you give to a conduct officer or in a written response can shape the outcome, and some may be used in a related criminal case under Texas law.
Shane Phelps Law helps students at Texas A&M, Blinn College, and universities across Texas navigate disciplinary proceedings, hearings, and appeals, and we push back on weak or one-sided evidence. Call now or book your free, confidential consultation.
Facing a Student Conduct Case?
Your Education Is Worth Fighting For.
A charge is not a finding. Even when the accusation is serious, there may be ways to challenge it. Our team reviews the charge, the evidence, and the school’s own procedures to find gaps, protect your rights, and fight to keep you in school.
What you say to a conduct officer early can affect both your campus case and any criminal case. Contact Shane Phelps Law today for your free, confidential consultation.
