Determined

When school officials will not adequately address your educational rights and concerns, or you receive notice of your school’s disciplinary investigation or misconduct charge, you need, above all, to know that you have an advocate who is determined to gain you the best possible resolution. You don’t need weak representation willing to let school officials run roughshod over your rights and interests, deny you disability accommodations or other rights and services, or dictate your punitive discipline. You instead need advocates and advisors with the determination to gain you the relief you need, even when school officials don’t at first appear willing to offer you any such accommodation or resolution.

Our determined engagement may turn up defense witnesses or other evidence you didn’t know existed, legal claims and defenses you were unaware you had, sound reasons for mitigating any sanctions, and remedial measures the school is more than willing to accept in the face of our determined advocacy. Engage the LLF National Law Firm’s premier Education Law Team now by calling 888.535.3686 or using our contact form, for the determined representation you need, as the following reviews attest.

Capable of Continuing to Pursue My Future of Being a Doctor / Medical School

If you are reading this review I am assuming you are put in a situation where some serious actions are needed to the extent of which a lawyer is required to aid you in your troubles. I will make this short and simple, working with Joseph has been an absolute pleasure and I would not hesitate to hire him as my lawyer again. I am an international student that was put in a very difficult situation right after graduating and required some serious help in order to keep my academic future intact. I got into contact with Joseph through the phone, in fact I left him a message on his website and I was almost immediately contacted. He reassured me that the situation I was in, despite being told it was final, could be redeemed and that he would do his absolute best to make sure that I was capable of continuing to pursue my future of being a doctor. I met up with Joseph later on that week and we spoke along with my family who has been stressed out about the news I’m dealing with. After a brief meeting I was sure he was the man for the job. He made it very clear that he was going to work on this matter for as long as it was needed and that he will give it 100% percent of his effort if not more. Suffice to say he delivered everything he promised, it took almost 6 months of constant pressuring and negotiations to finally reach a definitive conclusion and get my degree. There were plenty of times when I felt like just giving in and dealing with the aftermath of my actions later but Joseph constantly told me to remain calm and believe in the process he’s planned out. Anyways going back to the question you might be asking yourself, should I hire him as my lawyer or not? It’s a very easy question for me to answer i would easily say yes, I’ve very rarely met a more persistent/hard working person than he is. If you don’t believe me, at least do yourself a favor and contact him and you’ll find out why I spoke highly of his work/personality.

LLF National Law Firm Helped Clear My Daughter of False Academic Misconduct Charges

We were devastated when we learned that my daughter was falsely accused of academic misconduct by her school. She had worked too hard and sacrificed too much to get into a top university to allow her efforts to be derailed by false allegations. She was planning on going to graduate school and to seek professional licensing in her field at a later time and we recognized how serious the potential consequences could be because of these charges. We knew we needed professional help, and as importantly, we knew we needed an attorney who is the best at what he does. We learned of the success and passion [our attorney] brings to his clients’ cases and we asked him to help. [He] formulated a strategy on my daughter’s behalf, directed all efforts with the school to challenge the false allegations, and helped us persevere through a difficult time. It took an incredibly dedicated effort, but [he] was able to have the charges dismissed against my daughter. Thank you…

Excellent Man and Lawyer

My family and I reached out to [the LLF National Law Firm] for a conduct issue with my University. Not only did they respond promptly with consideration, they went above and beyond to ensure that we covered all grounds. They took the time to explain the legal process, what to expect, and how/ what they could do to ensure the processes flowed smoothly. They contacted the officials for discipline at every opportunity and clarified all the information presented from the University. They worked very early mornings (7/8am) as well as late nights (I believe 11pm /on). I never felt more comfortable with an attorney / lawyer. I did not feel cheated or deceived in any way. I value their help and services. Even post trial they makes conscious efforts to check on my state of mind /productivity in college. I would recommend them to any person looking seeking a dependable and superior advisor, lawyer, or other professional services.

When the SRO (School Resource Officer) is Involved: Why “Educational Discipline” Just Became “Legal Defense”

In the name of student safety, schools are installing School Resource Officers (SROs) on campus. But SROs’ involvement in campus problems also means that incidents at school can now turn directly into criminal investigations. What parents need to know is this: If your child faces discipline because of an incident […]

Can Schools Punish Students for Social Media Posts? The Mahanoy Standard

A frustrated high school cheerleader walks into a convenience store on a Saturday afternoon. She snaps a photo with a friend, raises her middle finger, and posts a profanity-filled message to Snapchat complaining about school and cheerleading. By Monday, she’s suspended from the cheer squad. Most students would assume that’s […]

State > District > School: How Inconsistent Policies Become a Defense in Student Misconduct

The state is greater than the district, while the district is greater than the school. That probably seems like a weird SAT math problem. However, it describes the legal concept of “preemption,” when a higher authority’s law prevents lower authorities from acting inconsistently with the senior law. And preemption can […]

Zero-Tolerance Discipline Policies Can Undermine Students’ Due Process Rights

Colleges and universities have broad authority to maintain campus safety and enforce student conduct policies. However, students accused of misconduct don’t lose their due process rights simply because allegations are serious. At the higher education level, courts have repeatedly recognized that suspension and expulsion can have life-changing academic and professional consequences. As […]
