Fighting Title IX complaints can be costly. A public school district can spend as much as $10,000 for basic defense against a complaint, while universities can pay five times that amount. If there’s litigation, costs can rise to at least $250,000, and if cases go to trial, they can be in excess of $1 million, according to Andrew T. Miltenberg, a lawyer at Nesenoff & Miltenberg LLP in New York who specializes in Title IX cases.
