Linda S. Johnson, McLane Middleton
Recognized as a Lawyer of the Year in Education Law
We selected nine Lawyers of the Year for portraits and asked them to share a favorite quotation and to tell us why they love what they do. These profiles appeared along with Woodward/White’s annual Best Lawyers in America list, as published in our November issue.
“Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.”
— Vince Lombardi
Why do you love what you do? “My practice focuses primarily on understanding and serving the needs of independent schools, largely on the K-12 level with some work for colleges and universities. I consult with schools in New Hampshire, New England, nationally and internationally on prevention and responses to all types of student and campus safety issues, boundary awareness, educator sexual misconduct, risk avoidance, crisis response, employment law and independent school law issues. It is very rewarding to work for clients who are focused on doing the right thing, the right way.”
