San Dimas School Board Hearing Lawyer

If your child is accused of committing a crime at school, your school district is likely taking action to penalize your child. Often, parents are tempted to work directly with the school board on minimizing any potential damages. In reality, the sheer presence of an attorney can actually reduce any negative actions, since the school district will want to avoid the possibility of litigation.

Handling School Board Hearings in California 

School districts are known to take swift action in deterring future juvenile crimes in their schools. If your child is accused of any violent behavior or committing a criminal offense, you child's school is likely making recommendations for how the school district should react. Normally, a school board or a panel of educational leaders is tasked with determining the extent of the punishment, such as:

• Suspension
• Expulsion from the school
• Expulsion for the school year
• Transfer to another school

Criminal defense attorney Paul Antill offers a detailed approach when handling administrative hearings. He will devote substantial time evaluating the extent of the school's evidence against your child. Mr. Antill will also evaluate the basis of the school's recommendation for penalizing your child.

We want to make sure the standard applied is consistent with the education code in your district. If the school district applied the wrong code or misinterprets an education code, Mr. Antill will immediately respond to protect your child's rights. Securing our help early can help minimize any potential penalties. The school district will likely want a quick resolution to avoid any negative implications, including the possibility of a civil lawsuit.
