Positive Outcomes

Parents want results when they hire an attorney. Our firm’s only goal is to secure the best outcomes possible for your child under the law.

When You Need a Special Education Lawyer

Your child with special needs is entitled to a “free and appropriate public education” (FAPE), which means your school district must meet his or her unique individual needs in the most appropriate setting, either in a public or private school placement. Unfortunately, for many reasons, school districts do not always provide the programs or services that your child needs to be successful. If your child is being denied appropriate services, is being treated unfairly, or is even being harmed at school, legal assistance may be necessary to protect his or her education rights.
