Our History
In 2015 Attorneys Greg Van Buiten and Karen Hewes merged their established solo practices to found EdLaw New England for the sole purpose of advocating, mediating, and litigating where necessary on behalf of Students and Families. Since doing so, Attorneys Theresa Kraft and Luke Webster have joined our practice so we now have over 60 years of combined legal experience in representing Students and Families.We remain committed to our founding principle of assisting and providing a strong voice for as many Students and Families as possible.
