Education

Colleges, universities, and K-12 schools operate in a highly regulated environment and must balance multiple priorities and imperatives while striving to fulfill their unique missions. Pat helps clients navigate these demands and defends them in litigation when necessary. Examples include:

  • Advising schools on issues surrounding admissions, athletics compliance, student mental health, Title IX, Title VI, and other issues.
  • Representing schools in student conduct litigation and appeals involving claims related to due process, Title IX, Title VI, and other anti-discrimination laws.
  • Representing schools in academic dismissal litigation involving breach of contract claims and claims under Title VI, Section 1981, and other anti-discrimination laws.
