Did You Know… Walsh Anderson has Experienced Attorneys in School Business Too?
When the general public thinks of a “school law attorney”, a lawyer who handles real estate or construction matters is not the first to come to mind. We have found that it is not uncommon these days to hear one of our clients say, “Gosh, I didn’t know you had business attorneys!” Operating a school district today, however, whether large or small, requires Boards, Superintendents and Business Administrators to make complex business decisions on a daily basis and to keep up with the latest business issues facing districts.
Our Business Transactions Section has tailored its practice to focus on assisting school districts with these issues. It provides comprehensive help to districts in the areas of general business and construction procurement and contracting, real estate purchase and sale transactions, assistance with Detachment and Annexations, ERATE matters, mediation, arbitration and litigation of contract and construction disputes and bond enforcement.
Walsh Anderson has a full team of quality lawyers, across the Firm ready to help you, from giving you some quick assurance on a retainer call to handling complex construction litigation. The core team consists of George Grimes and Winnie Dominguez in San Antonio, Ann Greenberg in Austin, and Darci Carroll in Albuquerque. Each of these transactional attorneys brings with them broad and varied legal and practical experience working with public schools, higher education institutions, construction companies, and other public entities in connection with their business transactions and litigation. They are also active participants in state and national groups associated with school district business transactions. Please get to know each of them by following the links to their Attorney Profiles.
