Special Education Law

Passionate & Skilled In Special Education Law Advocacy

When a child has consistent academic or disciplinary challenges, there often may be an unidentified disability causing these concerns. As a result, parents and children may not be receiving the support and attention they need.

If you have a child whom you suspect may have a disability, you have the right to have him or her evaluated by your school district free of charge. Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), public schools are required to locate and identify children who may need special education supports and services.

Fair Treatment And A Fair Education Plan

All children have a right to a free appropriate public education (FAPE). This means that, depending on your child’s individual needs, accommodations can be made such as preferential seating in the classroom, use of a computer, extra time for tests, homework modification, books on tape, and more. Additionally, they may require special education supports and services, such as:

  • Occupational Therapy
  • Speech and Language Therapy
  • Augmentative Alternative Communication
  • Assistive Technology
  • Behavior Intervention
  • Adapted Physical Education
  • Mental Health
  • Non-Public School Placement
  • Residential Treatment Center Placement

No matter what challenges your kid faces, our education system has a duty to identify and provide the structural, therapeutic and educational services they need to be successful.
