Educational Services
For over thirty years, Lewis Thomason has served the education field representing numerous private and governmental entities – specifically educational institutions – in numerous employment and education matters. These include educator-student issues, personnel and employment matters, construction, and real estate. Our education attorneys have a broad range of experience advising universities, school boards, and superintendents on legal matters involving every facet of the day-to-day operation of schools and universities; drafting and lobbying legislation; composing board and university policies and administrative rules and regulations; and defending those clients in state and federal courts, before federal, state and local governmental agencies, commissions and boards, and before committees of the general assembly. Our education team – the largest in the state with seven attorneys – is in the distinctive position of being one of the largest Tennessee law firms to handle education issues, employment matters, and civil rights litigation for education institutions.
