General Board Counsel

The backbone of our School Law practice is providing excellent and prompt General Counsel advice to our School Districts everyday.  As recent headlines have revealed, School Districts see a variety of issues everyday that require immediate legal advice.  Our General Counseling advice runs the gauntlet from student matters, personnel matters, O.P.M.A./O.P.R.A. matters, ethics questions, healthcare legislation, unfunded mandates, residency actions, homelessness, discipline, bullying, tenure charges, pension issues, disability, and discrimination lawsuits filed by employees.  Our representation also includes attending public meetings and representing your board in all facets of litigation. 

Whether it be regularly interacting with and negotiating against the largest Union in the State, interacting with the public at public meetings, or handling the most intense and technical questions related to educating students with disabilities; our clients enjoy unparalleled support and legal representation so they can spend their time where it should be: in the classroom educating our students.
