Attorneys needed to represent students in school discipline hearings to ensure equitable and appropriate educational outcomes. This is an opportunity to exercise your trial advocacy skills while also ensuring that a student who may need additional services is not wrongfully excluded from school or access to other necessary services.

 

  • Ensure due process is provided and inaccurate allegations are disproven.

  • Ensure that educational plans for disabled students are followed.

  • Facilitate a healthy and timely return to school for your student client.

  • Advocate for and identify additional social and educational supports to help prevent future exclusionary discipline.
