Yes I would encourage them to contact their university’s chapter of the AAUP if there is one, or to contact the national organization otherwise in case they can give referral.

Jason Ehrenberg is versed in Higher Ed and attentive; he is unlikely to work pro bono and is not very cheap -- his office is in D.C.

 

Our AAUP group retained him during a 'discussion' with our Board and between one thing and another we did not need to litigate, so my experience with him is limited.

 

Best of luck,

Lisa

So, I’d like to ask whether you’d facilitate a call to the FEAST list for names of capable lawyers with expertise in tenure cases, for a colleague to connect with. This may have merits as an academic freedom case or as a group discrimination or bias case. It involves dismissal of a tenured faculty member, northeastern USA. Are there any recommendations from FEAST for particularly capable lawyers? Of course, all the better if pro-bono.  Information by Tuesday evening would be appreciated. If any further suggestions are offered, that’s great too. The colleague is also engaging in discussion with their professional organization
