Schools & Education

We are a specialized law firm for public and private schools, educational institutions, school founders, and other actors in the education industry. We are also engaged by parents and pupils, non-profit organizations, and organizers of children's recreation or camps.

 

In-depth Knowledge of the Industry

We understand the needs of those involved in education, i.e. schools, educational establishments, their founders, educational institutions, and those involved in education policy-making. We actively cooperate with the publishing house Wolters Kluwer and contribute to its School Management section. We are authors of the book First Experiences with GDPR in Education.

Our lawyer, Alice Kubů Frýbová, regularly lectures in the field of education, and also teaches at the Faculty of Education of Charles University.

PaedDr. Mgr. Jan Kobliha

The lecture was excellently laid out and raised questions were immediately answered.

PaedDr. Mgr. Jan Kobliha

"Allow me to send you warm greetings from Ústí nad Labem and at the same time express my commendation and gratitude for sending Ms. Mgr. Alice Frýbová to deliver a lecture as part of the schools' preparation for matters related to GDPR.

I, along with other participants, appreciate the high-quality and cultured presentation, which was very comprehensible and enriched with examples from school practice. This was precisely what the present school directors, their representatives, and other educational staff needed.

The lecture was excellently structured and elaborated from a didactic standpoint, and Ms. Frýbová provided immediate and comprehensive answers to the questions raised.

As someone who lectures on educational law myself, I know how important it is to immediately support theoretical questions with practical examples, which was fully realized in the delivered lecture. I have attended many lectures as a listener, but for a long time, I have not encountered such true quality from your colleague, which kept me engaged throughout, preventing any boredom or disinterest.

In light of the above, I would like to take this opportunity to address you at the law firm and express my sincere gratitude."
