Education Law

Columbia Education Law Attorneys

The quality of our educational system is one of the most important issues in South Carolina today. The landscape is changing quickly and new educational models are being proposed as a means of diversifying the settings in which learning may flourish. However, our state has historically been reluctant to embrace change in many contexts. This reluctance leads to numerous obstacles for those on the forefront of educational improvement. If you are among them, make sure you have proper counsel from the start. At the Columbia law offices of Baker, Ravenel & Bender, we protect the rights of schools and individuals involved in education law disputes or with administrative concerns. Whether you are a charter school trying to get organized, looking for funding, or at odds with its sponsor, or a teacher or administrator at risk of losing your certification, we can help you find solutions.

Committed to Excellent Client Service
Contact Baker, Ravenel & Bender Today

While our firm handles a number of education law concerns, our lawyers are focused on providing counsel for charter schools. We can guide you through the entire process of applying for a charter and will represent you before school district boards or in court, if that is necessary. We are also available to provide guidance to schools once their charters have been issued on the myriad of issues that may arise in the course of running a self-governed institution.

In addition to work with charter schools, we also protect the rights of teachers and administrators who are at risk of losing their professional credentials as well as parents who are concerned about the physical and educational welfare of their children.
