Jordan T. Quenneville

Jordan T. Quenneville is an attorney at Drummond Woodsum in Portland, Maine, who represents public school districts on a wide range of legal issues. Her work includes special education and disability law, student rights, student discipline, Title IX, school policy analysis, and litigation. She also practices criminal defense and accepts federally appointed criminal cases, giving her experience in both education-related counseling and courtroom advocacy in state and federal matters.

Jordan earned a J.D. from the University of Maine School of Law and a B.S. from the University of Vermont. Before her legal career, she worked in education as a teacher, advisor, and coach for elementary and high school students in public and private settings. That background provides practical context for her school-law practice and supports her understanding of the operational issues schools face. Her legal education and prior classroom experience combine to inform her work with public school districts and students’ legal rights.

Jordan developed litigation experience at a boutique law firm before joining Drummond Woodsum. Her earlier work included defending people accused of crimes in state and federal court, handling complex civil rights cases, and working on family matters. She serves on the Criminal Justice Act panel for the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine and accepts appointed federal criminal cases representing indigent defendants. This courtroom work complements her school and education practice.

Jordan T. Quenneville combines education experience with litigation and criminal-defense work. Her practice requires careful attention to disability law, student rights, discipline, school policies, and Title IX procedures while accounting for the practical needs of public schools. Her prior teaching background helps her understand educational settings, and her litigation experience supports her ability to address disputes, constitutional questions, and contested proceedings when school-related matters move beyond day-to-day counseling.
