IDEA DUE PROCESS MEDIATIONS AND HEARINGS

When a child has a disabling mental or physical impairment, the condition can have an adverse impact on the student’s right to receive a free and appropriate education. We often work with parents who have become frustrated in battling with school officials over accommodations for a disability or the system’s failure to evaluate a child for an individualized education program to allow the student to obtain a meaningful education.

We help parents understand the rights of their child to a free and appropriate education in San Diego area schools. Federal and California laws offer opportunities for students with disabilities – we are here to help you assert your child’s rights.

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act requires school officials to provide a meaningful education for children with disabilities, which includes a tailored educational program and related services.

Our firm can help with a wide range of IEP issues, including the failure to properly implement the services on your child's IEP, inappropriate services and accommodations, and inappropriate placement. We work diligently to advocate for your child's needs, and through the filing of a due process complaint we can work towards several remedies.

Many clients receive compensatory education, which is a fund of money that can be used toward private educationally related services to help remediate learning losses caused by the District's failures. Clients have also received substantive changes made to their IEPs, changes in placement, Independent Educational Evaluations, and reimbursement of past tutoring or tuition expenses.
