Proven Results

Seattle & Western Washington Education Law Counsel

Representing students and families in school discipline, special education, disability accommodation, discrimination, athletic eligibility, university discipline and other education-law disputes.

Aegis Expertise

Education is one of the most critical factors in a person’s lifelong success. Issues affecting a student, from preschool to PhD programs, can have impacts that last for years, if not forever. The volume of statutes, regulations, rights, and policies governing schools is monumental. Having an experienced lawyer that can ensure your student’s rights are protected makes a difference - education law is too important for someone to “dabble” in.
