About Attorney Awards

Education/Higher Education

Education law, particularly in New Jersey, is an intricate combination of administrative rulings and procedures, mandates, legislative initiatives, and statutes such as the No Child Left Behind Act. DeCotiis lawyers provide schools at every level – public and private, K-12 to college and universities, school districts and private businesses – invaluable assistance in navigating this complex environment.

Our education clients particularly benefit from DeCotiis’ unparalleled expertise in municipal law and government and regulatory affairs. In addition to advising clients on managing current issues, our extensive experience and ongoing involvement in education-related issues means we can help clients anticipate – and often avoid – challenges created by change.

Whether a client’s needs involve a statutory scheme, like the Americans with Disabilities Act, managing Federal or state grants, or dealing with labor-related challenges, the diverse practice groups of DeCotiis can provide invaluable legal counsel, and help our education clients stay on course.
