MARYJO MCGRATH, JD
SCHOOL DISTRICT LIABILITY EXPERT

Sexual Harassment, Misconduct, Discrimination, & Bullying

Negligent Supervision, Evaluation & Retention

When an incident occurs within a school district, you need an expert to determine if the district is liable and responsible for any damages that may have occurred. As an attorney myself, I understand firsthand the importance of selecting an expert witness with deep expertise, compelling communication skills and the ability to withstand sometimes brutal cross-examination on the stand. I will provide all three.

I provide expert witness services for cases related to:

Sexual harassment or misconduct
Educator sexual abuse
Bullying and illegal harassment
Title IX compliance
Negligent hiring, supervision, evaluation and retention
Supervision and remediation after a failed dismissal attempt

“Thoroughness, commitment and poise is what defines Ms. McGrath in my view. You never have to worry about her being prepared. Bank on it. She is extremely passionate about keeping children safe from predators as she has spent a good chunk of her career developing policies to best achieve this goal. Finally, she is composed and articulate especially when she is under pressure. I could not recommend her more enthusiastically.”
