Schwartz Hannum PC is a strategic partner to educational institutions looking to promote a positive learning environment and resolve workplace issues. Schwartz Hannum PC’s Schools and Education Practice provides comprehensive guidance to the full spectrum of school and education clients, including many nationally renowned independent schools, colleges and universities.
The Firm’s Schools and Education Practice helps educational leaders meet their legal obligations to both employees and students under state and federal laws. Our attorneys understand the unique dynamics of the school environment – how each decision, from hiring and admissions to termination and expulsion, affects relationships with students, parents, alumni, faculty, staff, and governing boards.
We translate that understanding into solutions that help schools mitigate risk and avoid potential conflicts. Should disputes arise, we provide the administration with representation in litigation before state and federal government agencies, courts, and arbitration panels.
Nationally-renowned colleges, universities, and independent schools rely on Schwartz Hannum PC to provide the clarity, foresight, and guidance necessary to make smart choices. The Firm offers educational institutions a unique combination of sophisticated, personable attorneys and a commitment to fulfilling each client’s business and knowledge objectives.
