“Working with LTL has been a thoroughly professional experience from start to finish. Harrison understands schools as well as the sensitivity and confidentiality that investigations require. He has excellent communication skills, and those he has interviewed -- parents, students, and staff alike -- have all commented on his professionalism, trust, and how comfortable they feel speaking with him. Given his experience as a school principal, he relates well to students of all ages. During some difficult investigations, LTL Consulting provided a source of trust and reliability that allowed the district to carve a path forward with clarity of information and supporting documentation. “
