Excellent lawyer

Simopoulos Law provided excellent legal services. He skillfully guided me through a lengthy process full of bureaucratic obstacles and ending with very good results. There is an old saying, “People don’t care about how much you know, they want to know how much you care.” Nick Simopoulos knows a lot... and cares a lot.

Assistant Principal

Mr. Nick Simopoulos represented me in an employment dispute involving my demotion from assistant principal of a middle school to a classroom teacher position. I was given no warning, or a reason this happened by the school board. I held my administrative position for 14 years and never had a letter i...n my file, or a complaint brought against me by any administrator in the county. Due to my age being close to retirement and wanting to preserve the reputation of a younger administrator, I believe they used me as a scapegoat, fired me from my administrative job, and demoted me back to a classroom position. The superintendent thought I would just accept this and go away. Nick did an excellent job presenting my case for age related discrimination and wrongful demotion. He worked diligently to get me a favorable settlement, which turned out to be a positive outcome for me.

Thank you very much for this kind review. Employers are more than happy to use the leverage they have, unfairly so, against even their best employees. Kudos for asserting your employment rights, Helen, and allowing me to assist you in this most important task. I wish you and your family all of the best!

Best Education Lawyer in VA

Nick was the best attorney in education law. He is very passionate on education also. When I hired Nick I knew I was in great hands. I trusted him and felt like he was family more than a lawyer. Great advocate for his clients and he always kept in the loop of what was going on. Nick has my vote ...as the best education lawyer in VA. He provided wonderful service and I wouldn't change anything about his service or the case outcome. Thank you for advocating for my son Nick :)

Protecting students rights

For my first time ever dealing with a lawyer I could not have asked for a better experience. Being a busy grad student, Nicholas was not only very patient but would be constantly in touch with me through out my process. After wrongfully being accused of academic misconduct I thought that the truth wo...uld be enough to explain my situation to the university. However I have since realized that the University is not there to help the student but rather to trap them. It is for situations like this that I am grateful for having the privilege to work with Nicholas. Nicholas was very passionate about helping me and even other students get justice. After explaining to him my exact situation he worked diligently on my behalf. He was very easy to reach and talk to. As a student I was able be my self around Nicholas and express exactly how I felt. Any college or professional student in the state of VA and DC should have this mans information readily available!

Thank you so much for your kind review. I understand that colleges and universities have so much leverage against students and also the grave imbalance in the relationship. I strive to bring balance to that relationship when colleges and universities overstep to the detriment of student rights. It was a true privilege to represent you in your Virginia education law case; thank you for that opportunity.

Highly recommend!

Mr. Simopoulos is not your everyday attorney he will keep you up to date at all times. You will never have to worry about how your case is going. When there are times that he needs to speak to you about a important matter he will give you a heads up email to let you know that he will be calling you. ...He is not your attorney that will try to get you to settle for a quick dollar, Mr. Simopoulos will look out for your best interest and get you the most that he can. I work with Mr. Simopoulos for almost a year on my case where other attorneys would have tried to get you to take a small offer so that they could get paid and move on to there next case Mr. Simopoulos will tell you straight up front that he could get your more. You would be hard press to find a better attorney like that.
