Education

Educational institutions have varied legal needs that are nuanced, complex, and often high-profile. Efficient resolution of these matters takes more than just a law degree, it demands experienced and focused attorneys who consistently work with public and private educational institutions and who appreciate the need to thoughtfully evaluate how decisions and strategies intersect with each client's overall educational mission.

Our comprehensive education team has a long history of providing creative solutions for public and private school districts, colleges, universities, and community colleges in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. We are proud of our ability to anticipate and respond to the evolving legal service needs of our education clients. Our attorneys are passionate about education and invest nonbillable time to stay current on legal issues that are important to our clients, with the goal of providing top‐notch legal services in a cost‐effective manner.

Our firm provides clients with extensive experience in the combined fields of education, special education, employment, public law, construction, and real estate. We utilize this experience to support clients with needs in civil rights, compliance, privacy, student affairs, contracting, and governance.
