Litigation & Administrative Appeals

We represent clients nationwide in litigation and administrative appeals involving federal education programs and grants.

Unsure Of Your Options After Receiving An Audit Or Monitoring Finding?

Our team helps navigate the complex legal and regulatory frameworks governing programs such as the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and Higher Education Act (HEA), as well as cross cutting grants rules like the UGG and EDGAR. Whether challenging adverse agency decisions, resolving disputes over funding, or appealing audit findings, we provide strategic, informed advocacy to protect our clients’ interests and ensure compliance with federal requirements.

Our Firm has successfully defended clients in civil false claims actions, reversed determinations of ineligibility for federal funds, and reached favorable settlements to resolve issues with minimal liability. Attorneys at our firm have also litigated in federal and state administrative tribunals, federal district and circuit courts and even successfully litigated a case before the U.S. Supreme Court.
