Helping Florida Students and Families Find Their Voice
Education is the path to growth and opportunity, but for students who have special needs or developmental delays, the challenges they face can get in the way of their education. Other times, a problem in the classroom or with a teacher or professor can prevent the student from getting the education they deserve. Whether there is a serious accusation of academic dishonesty, a misunderstanding with the school or district, or something just seems unfair, we can address it.
Our Florida educational lawyer works with students of all ages across the Sunshine State, from early childhood through college and post-graduate school, and those attending public, private, and charter schools and vocational programs.
Some of the most common situations we help families and students with include special education needs and IEP violations, discrimination claims, and allegations of academic dishonesty. We can also represent college students facing accusations of misconduct such as underage drinking, DUI, drug-related charges, or sexual misconduct.
If you or your child has been a victim of violence or sexual violence on a school campus, we take swift action to protect you, including considering criminal complaints and filing a lawsuit for damages.
We believe that the best educational environment is one in which all students are treated fairly, and as such, we represent you in Title IX matters, whether you’re a victim or someone facing an investigation of discrimination or violations of the act.
No two situations are exactly the same, so our approach depends on your student’s needs and the matter at hand. What does remain the same is our commitment to you.
Our Florida Education Lawyer Supports Teachers, Professors, and School Staff
Students aren’t the only ones who need strong advocates. Professional educators do, too. If you’re a teacher, professor, administrator, or school employee facing disciplinary action or a code of conduct investigation, you need a powerful ally on your side, one who understands the law and your rights. The school system’s interests may not be the same as yours; our attorneys ensure that your professional reputation, license, and career are protected.
We also assist with higher education matters such as academic integrity concerns or accusations and intellectual property disputes involving course content or research.
