A: An Education Lawyer such as myself is what you need.

More details are necessary to provide a professional analysis of your issue. The best first step is an Initial Consultation with an Attorney. You can read more about me, my credentials, awards, honors, testimonials, and media appearances/ publications on my law practice website, www.AEesq.com. I practice law in CA, NY, MA, and DC in the following areas of law: Business & Contracts, Criminal Defense, Divorce & Child Custody, and Education Law.

A: Contact a member of the CAOC who handles police misconduct cases. They give free consults. (Even if its a school guard,there are specialized issues of training, appropriateness of response in a given situation, manpower allocated for the situation, etc). Do not discuss any facts on any social media--facebook, anywhere! It can show up in Court and it's not pretty.
