Mr. Lester graduated from Wayne State University Law School in 1997 (cum laude), and was admitted to
the State Bar of Michigan in 1997. He is a member and former President of the Branch County Bar
Association, and a former municipal attorney and city prosecutor.
Mr. Lester is concerned about the growing number of families in Michigan that are experiencing problems
and disagreements with their schools. Education is a legal right for all children, and an essential foundation
for each child's future. Sometimes schools fail to identify or meet the needs of children who do not fit the
"typical" mold, or who start to experience academic, social or discipline problems. Mr. Lester believes that
such children must not be cast aside by our school system. His law office is committed to protecting and
promoting the educational rights and interests of all children.
Mr. Lester recognizes the importance of preserving positive relationships between parents and schools
whenever possible. Although litigation is sometimes necessary to enforce a legal right, when feasible Mr.
Lester prefers to first pursue negotiations focused on constructive problem solving. Often, this is all that is
necessary to produce an acceptable resolution.
Mr. Lester grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and he obtained his education in the Detroit area. His office is
located in the Village of Tekonsha, a small town near the intersection of I-94 and I-69, and less than an
hour's drive from Kalamazoo, Battle Creek, Lansing and Jackson. His services are available anywhere in
Michigan.
