Special Education Advocacy Consults
Parents and guardians are encouraged to contact our team so we can offer special education advocacy consultations. In this way, we can learn more about your needs and preferences. You may not be sure how to move forward after learning that an educational facility is not fulfilling their duty to give your child the accommodations and services they need to thrive. During the consultation, you can expect us to address the following:
- Assess the current accommodations and services provided to the student by their educational facility or institution
- Review the needs of children, guardians, and parents who need to revise the Individualized Education Plan or book an appointment for a medical specialist
- Create plans for upcoming/pending evaluations and unexpected diagnosis
- Discuss medical and education information to help the child reach their goals
By having our dedicated Michigan special education attorney advocate for you, it can alleviate some of the anxiety of parents and guardians who want the best for their children. When you have our team by your side, you can anticipate our services and tasks involving:
- Going to Section 504 meetings with guardians and parents
