Washington, D.C., attorney Laura Dunn has sold her Title IX practice to a New York law firm, partly because a 2022 U.S. Supreme Court ruling limited opportunities to recover damages for her clients, she said.

“This was kind of like a slow time bomb,” Dunn said about the ruling. “The only people that enforce Title IX in the U.S. are plaintiff’s lawyers, and the only way that we do it is on a contingency basis. If it’s going to cost us more to litigate than we can win, you’ve gutted Title IX without it being obvious.”
