What Leasor Crass, P.C. does

Leasor Crass, P.C. is a boutique professional services law firm headquartered in Mansfield, Texas, that specializes exclusively in the representation of Texas public school districts and charter schools. Founded in 2013, the firm operates as a Texas professional corporation and is co-managed by shareholders Mike Leasor and Rhonda Crass, who together bring over 60 years of combined experience in education law. The firm employs approximately 17 staff members, including attorneys and support personnel, and maintains a single office location in Mansfield while serving clients statewide.

The firm's product portfolio consists of human-delivered legal services organized into six core practice areas: Personnel, Business & Facilities, Board Governance, Litigation, Special Education/§504, and Students. These are supplemented by a Retainer Program for ongoing district counsel and a Superintendent Search service that assists school boards with executive recruitment. The firm does not offer technology products, software, or digital platforms, and its core technology stack is described as not applicable. Revenue is generated through hourly billing and/or multi-year retainer arrangements with school district clients, a standard professional services model for institutional legal counsel.

Leasor Crass distributes its services through direct attorney-client relationships with school district superintendents, boards of trustees, and administrators, supplemented by content marketing via a blog covering Texas education legislation and professional referral networks including the Texas Council of School Attorneys and the National School Attorney Association. The firm's client base is entirely within Texas K-12 public education, with named clients including Wylie ISD, Mineral Wells ISD, and Argyle ISD, some of which have retained the firm for 8-10+ years. The firm holds no external investment, has no parent company, and operates as an independent private professional corporation.
