Since the firm began, our clients have come to expect practical, constructive advice that considers their best interests.
Education Law: Student Issues
Our attorneys have handled virtually every possible student-related legal issue confronting Connecticut’s public schools, from student discipline and residency to complex constitutional questions involving student speech and student searches. We represent the interests of school boards and district administrators at the district level, before state agencies, and in both federal and state courts. The firm’s lawyers serve as procedural advisors and hearing officers in student expulsion, student residency, student transportation and Section 504 hearings.
Our attorneys have spoken on education law issues at the national level and are regularly featured at statewide seminars sponsored by the Connecticut Association of Boards of Education, the State Education Resource Center of Connecticut, and the Connecticut Council of Administrators of Special Education. On the district level, we keep boards and school administrators apprised of new developments in the law through client advisories, staff in-services, and both Superintendent and Special Education Forums.
