Education
Our Education team advises public and private educational institutions on the complex legal and regulatory issues they face in today’s academic environment. We represent K-12 schools, colleges, universities, and educational service providers in matters ranging from governance and policy development to employment, student rights, and risk management.
We assist institutions with regulatory compliance, including Title IX, FERPA, ADA, and civil rights laws. Our attorneys help clients manage student discipline, special education obligations, labor and employment matters, and internal investigations. We also advise on institutional policies, board governance, and contractual relationships with vendors and third parties.
When disputes arise, we represent clients in administrative hearings, litigation, and appeals involving faculty, staff, students, and government agencies. Our team works to resolve issues efficiently while protecting the institution’s mission, reputation, and operational integrity.
Whether navigating compliance, managing crises, or planning for long-term growth, we deliver responsive, strategic legal counsel tailored to the needs of the education sector.
