Legal Representation for Pennsylvania Students and Families
Many students and families often find themselves overwhelmed when negotiating a successful resolution to academic challenges. Our attorneys help make sure that your voice is heard, your concerns are taken seriously, and your student receives the best possible education. We advocate for students in many matters, ranging from disciplinary hearings to Title IX investigations.
Our attorneys defend students in institutions of higher learning, including colleges, universities, trade schools, and graduate schools, if they are facing allegations of criminal activity, including DUI/ DWAI, minor-in-possession, sexual misconduct, and other violations of the school code of conduct. This also includes representation for those accused of plagiarism or other academic integrity violations.
We believe in fair treatment and equality for all. Our attorneys can initiate Title IX investigations, including cases involving sexual harassment, assault, or gender-based discrimination, to ensure that every student can focus on their education free of harassment and unfair treatment.
For younger students, we help parents ensure teacher and school compliance with their child’s IEP and address necessary accommodations for students with special needs and disabilities. We also work to eliminate discrimination in the classroom, protecting your child in claims of exclusion from extracurricular activities due to discriminatory practices.
Our strategic counsel is grounded in our attorneys’ decades of combined experience in education law. We work closely with you to fully understand the situation, develop an appropriate course of action, and preserve access to the best possible education.
