Forward-Thinking Legal Guidance: School Defense - Revocations & Non-Renewal

YM&C attorneys are experts in the defense of charter revocations and appeals. No one has handled more than us. While YM&C attorneys actively work to build cooperative, long-lasting relationships between clients and authorizers, there are times when charter defense becomes necessary. Our skilled team is ready to address various notices, including Notices of Concern, Notices to Cure, Notices of Violations, and Notices of Intent to Revoke. We expertly guide clients through the appeal process following a revocation or a non-renewal. Whether entering at any stage of the process, we swiftly attend to client needs.
