School districts are employers, purchasers of goods and services, lessors or lessees of property, and accountable financial managers. Our attorneys provide advice and services in each of these areas, with sensitivity to the special public mission of school districts. Schools and school districts often require quick practical solutions to diverse problems that arise in day-to-day operations, including student discipline, employee discipline and termination, confidentiality of school records, response to suspected child abuse, and services for students with special education needs. Our attorneys serve schools and school districts as general counsel, and can quickly respond to urgent questions of day-to-day operations. We also serve as special counsel on complex matters involving creation and approval of charter schools, compliance with constitutional and statutory mandates, restructuring of school districts, splitting up of regional school districts, faculty termination and discrimination. Our goal is to avoid
problems through the use of preventive measures and counseling. We also
represent schools and school districts if litigation arises in the federal
and state courts or state and federal administrative agencies. Saiber attorneys practicing in this area include:
