Education lawyers represent parents and their children in cases involving students' access to public school education, rights of special needs students under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), discrimination in education, and more. When you need help to make sure that your child receives an appropriate education, contacting an education law attorney near you is the first step.

Use the list of education law professionals that we've compiled to hire a local education law lawyer to help with the issues your child is facing at school.

  • Build a case for your child's eligibility for an individualized education program (IEP).

  • In some instances, attorneys may even participate in the IEP drafting process.

In addition to offering legal advice about special education and general education law-related topics, education law attorneys answer detailed questions such as:

  • What rules can school districts and school boards set regarding student safety and discipline?
  • Are there different laws or regulations for how public schools and private schools in the United States can act toward students?
  • Is there a difference in regulations that apply to higher education institutions compared to elementary schools, middle schools and high schools?
  • Do public health issues (such as the COVID-19/coronavirus pandemic) modify how schools can treat students? Do those issue change what options schools must offer, such as distance learning?
  • How does Title IX protect against discrimination?
  • Can an education lawyer help with civil rights issues?
  • Can a lawyer attend a due process hearing?
