LAWFIRM SERVICE

01Overview of School Violence
School violence often involves complex incidents encompassing criminal, civil, and administrative aspects. Cases may require comprehensive responses across various fronts, including criminal penalties for perpetrators and civil lawsuits for damages incurred by victims, as well as administrative litigation and responses to administrative decisions both inside and outside the school environment.

Theo Law Firm comprises legal professionals with extensive experience, including participation in school violence committees and handling everything from initial disciplinary actions to final civil compensations. Delaying action can exacerbate the situation, so we encourage seeking early consultation immediately upon occurrence for appropriate solutions.
