Legal advice for the decisions that come with running a school.

A practical answer starts with context.

I have handled legal and administrative matters as a preschool owner alongside my work as an attorney. I know a decision may affect families, staff, and the next day’s operations—not just the wording of a document.

I help you identify the legal questions, consider your options, and think through a workable next step. A focused question and an ongoing counsel relationship call for different scopes; we agree on that before moving forward.

Questions we can work through

Contracts and written policies

I can review enrollment agreements, parent handbooks, and business contracts, or help you consider changes when the written terms do not match how your school operates.

Parent and staff concerns

When a disagreement develops or a difficult conversation is ahead, I can help you assess the issues, review relevant policies and correspondence, and consider your response.

Day-to-day operating decisions

Some questions cross several areas: a policy change may affect enrollment terms, staff practices, and licensing. We can identify those connections rather than treat each document in isolation.

Useful to have ready

• The question or decision you need to resolve.
• The agreement, policy, or correspondence involved.
• What has already happened and when you need to act.

If a notice or demand sets a deadline, check it and seek timely advice rather than waiting for an inquiry response. For questions centered on licensing rules, see Title 22 & licensing compliance.
