Britton, Smith, Peters & Kalail Co., L.P.A. is an 10-attorney law firm located in Cleveland, Ohio, devoted almost exclusively to the representation of Ohio school boards. An "AV" rated firm by Martindale-Hubble, the Firm is listed in the Bar Register of Pre-Eminent Lawyers for its education law practice. Britton, Smith, Peters & Kalail is founded upon the experience of our attorneys who have spent years responding to the needs of our school board clients, whether through direct representation or appointment by insurance carriers. Our attorneys provide quality legal services to school boards at a reasonable fee.
Recognizing that accessibility and responsiveness of board counsel are extremely important factors for school boards and their administrative teams, the Firm is committed to having experienced and knowledgeable school law attorneys available to clients at all times for telephone consultation. Our significant presence in the school law area on a statewide basis provides us the ability to offer school boards the added benefits derived from active networking and problem solving among school clients facing common challenges.
Our lawyers adhere to the philosophy that good legal service is provided not only by promptly responding to the inevitable urgencies faced by school boards, but also in helping them to reduce the potential for future problems. This preventive legal maintenance is accomplished first through effective and proactive communications with our clients regarding significant developments in the law as it affects school boards, whether through our electronic newsletter, website, in-service presentations, or within the context of the ongoing communications between client and attorney. We believe a solid understanding of the legal issues impacting education is pivotal to the administration and management of public schools and that we have a role in helping school boards avoid legal pitfalls.
