Top 10 of 1,793 law firms for Schools, Dispute Resolution

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers disputes connected with state and academy schools in England, including issues such as school admissions, exclusions, special educational needs provision, and governance or academy closures. A solicitor in this field drafts and challenges school policies, prepares and prosecutes or resists appeals to the appeals processes, and represents clients in education tribunals and related proceedings. The work is shaped by national education legislation, policy guidance, and the duties of local authorities and schools toward pupils and families.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Solicitors handle admissions appeals, exclusions challenges, and SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) matters, including SEND appeals to the First-tier Tribunal (Special Educational Needs and Disability). They draft representations to authorities, prepare court- or tribunal-ready bundles, negotiate with schools or local authorities, and advise on governance issues in academy or maintained school settings. The process involves navigating statutory duties, court and tribunal procedures, and the interplay between education policy and individual rights.

Thank you, and everyone that worked on this case, for your hard work and patience, and especially to you dealing with the last stage of negotiations, which was hard process. I am very thankful to Mr Silverman as I know his team/department took on this case and dealt with it accordingly. Please also send my gratitude to Mahsa Tavakol as I know she really helped out a lot over this three years. I am pleased with the outcome and success and hope that you are too.

Philip Collins

Tagged solicitor Philip Collins

Phil and his team were experts in the area of dispute resolution. From the onset of instructions, they were hugely helpful at an incredibly stressful time and covered every area of the matter with thorough detail and expertise. I would highly recommend Phil and his team as they go above and beyond the industry standard.
