Emerson Law, LLC

We worked with John Emerson on a sensitive education-related matter involving the College of Charleston. From our first conversation, it was clear that he had a sound understanding of education law and was well-versed in the inner workings of the College, including its policies and key administrators. What stood out most to us was how open John was to our ideas and perspective. He collaborated with us over the four months we worked with him incorporating our insights while offering sound legal guidance. That kind of partnership is deeply appreciated. In addition, John was incredibly accessible. We never felt like we were waiting around for answers. If you’re looking for someone with legal expertise and a collaborative approach - especially when it comes to education law or navigating ma

Mr. John Emerson is wonderful! He helped me with my teenage daughter who wasn't a troubled child, who made a mistake and was up for expulsion. Mr. Emerson stayed on top of things and was an advocate for my family and me. I highly recommend him.

There are not enough words to convey what a blessing Mr.Emerson was for our family. He fought for my daughter on a college level to make sure her accommodations were legally met. When we called him to tell him all the hard work had paid off and she was accepted into her program, it felt like we had just told a family member. He was so excited for her and that meant so much to us. He has a true passion and love for what he does. I would highly recommend him. He's not just an awesome attorney but he's a wonderful, caring person. We just can't thank him enough.

If you are having trouble with the school or district not taking you or your child's concerns seriously, you've come to the right place. I begged the school for help for 3 years. Mr. Emerson was a champion for my son and held the district accountable. He is extremely knowledgeable about our 3 local school district's policies. He is very responsive to calls and correspondence. He really cares about his clients, even checking in a few times after the resolution, just to make certain the school and district were living up to its promises. I can honestly say that after 3 years of back and forth, i finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I hope it's smooth sailing from here, but no worries if it's not; we've got John Emerson on our side.

If you need someone to fight for your childs education, he is the one. He helped my son get back into school, and also gave great advice! He is great at communicating regardless of location. He helped my son in a very hard situation. I'm very grateful for everything Mr. Emerson did for my son and I.
