Mr. Emerson was instrumental in helping me through a very difficult time with my school district. I would have been at a loss without him. I am now in a much healthier situation, mentally and financially! If you’re in education or have an educational legal issue, he is your guy! I feel grateful and blessed to have had him on my side during such an awful time! Thank you!

John Emerson is one of the finest individuals who ever worked for CCSD. By leaving the district he chooses to help children and adults who deserve a fair outcome, but who may have been shortchanged by those who may have been unmotivated.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, ValueI was faced with an unexpected issue with a school matter. Time was of the essence and not knowing where to turn. I was given John Emerson’s name. I called the office and without an appointment, he took my call. He took the time to listen to my issue, and gave me guidance right away. He went out of his way to find some answers for me and the communication was on point! I cannot thank him enough for his compassion, sense of urgency and willingness to help and had never even met me. He continued to follow up with me until all was settled. John Emerson is definitely one I would want in my corner. Thank you for all the time you took to guide me through my situation and get to a favorable outcome!I was faced with an unexpected issue with a school matter.
