Services

Within the niche umbrella of Education Law, Match Solicitors offer professional guidance and support, as well as legal representation, in a wide variety of different circumstances. The kinds of cases in which we participate include but are not limited to the following: 

  • Cases against institutions, where our specialist education lawyers act on behalf of children, parents, students, teachers, professors and academics. 
  • Cases at all levels of education - we are as skilled in the law relating to schools and children, as we are in further & higher education law - and we advise and assist clients ranging from nursery to post doctoral education.
  • Cases within the regulated sectors - where we act for professionals such as doctors, nurses, social workers, lawyers, psychologists and teachers.
  • Cases within the academic sector - we have an experienced employment team assisting with employment challenges in this area.

Our practice is divided into four main service areas:
