Furthermore...
We recognise that many issues in the education sector are sensitive and time-critical. Our team is experienced in crisis management and regulatory matters, helping institutions respond effectively to incidents that may attract public or regulatory scrutiny.
Schools
We regularly assist schools with codes of conduct, plain-English agreements for parents and students, and policies that support safe and effective learning environments. Our team advises principals, school boards, and not-for-profit operators on governance, staffing, and commercial issues, from routine contracts to major projects.
Tertiary Institutions
We also act for universities, TAFEs, and other higher education providers. Our expertise covers research agreements, partnerships, intellectual property, workplace relations, and regulatory compliance. We support institutions in achieving their strategic and operational objectives, while helping them manage risk and maintain strong reputations.
At FAL Lawyers, we combine deep sector knowledge with a practical approach. Whether advising on internal policies, handling disputes, or assisting with major projects, we are committed to helping education providers deliver on their mission with confidence.
