About Raymond Arthur
Raymond Arthur Foss built a career that bridges public administration and the law. He began his studies at the University of New Hampshire, earning a B.A. in political science in 1978 and an M.P.A. in 1982. Two decades later he returned to the classroom at Franklin Pierce Law Center, completing both a J.D. and an M.E.L. in Education Law in 2001.
After law school he entered practice in New Hampshire. His legal education included specialized coursework in education law, and that training has informed much of his work. He is admitted to practice in New Hampshire and has handled matters that intersect law, public institutions and school governance.
In 2006 he took on a firm leadership role and has served as the managing member of the Law Offices of Raymond A. Foss, PLLC. That position placed him at the center of the firm’s decisions about case selection, client services and how the practice responds to administrative and judicial developments affecting schools and public bodies.
Foss’s background in public administration complements his legal credentials. The combination of an M.P.A. and an education law degree gives him familiarity with the organizational and regulatory pressures that school districts and municipal entities face. He has experience in administrative hearings and in advising clients on compliance and governance questions that arise in public education.
Colleagues describe him as methodical and practical in approach. He tends to prioritize procedural clarity and careful record-keeping in contested matters. His work often requires translating legal rules into operational steps for school officials, boards and administrators who must make policy decisions under statutory constraints.
He remains based in New Hampshire and continues to practice from the Law Offices of Raymond A. Foss, PLLC. He represents clients in education-related matters, administrative hearings and related litigation in New Hampshire.
