“This firm was the best. You guys went above and beyond the call to help provide the best legal help that one could ask for. I thank you and my family thanks you for all that was done in the need of my child. I am truly grateful.”

-T.A.

 

“Our son was a gifted student who always did well in school. However, he began having real difficulty in going to school and was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and school phobia. None of the IEP’s that the school district put forth came close to meeting our son’s needs. Rather than a helpful attitude, the school district took an adversarial position towards our family. In the absence of any constructive ideas from the school district, and after several months with no effective plan in place, we took it upon ourselves to hire an educational consultant. The consultant recommended therapeutic boarding schools in the West. Following his advice, we sent our son to two schools he recommended and our son received his high school diploma from a school in Montana three years later.

The educational consultant also recommended that we hire an attorney so that we could try to get help from our school district in paying the staggering amount of $ 6,000 per month that the schools in the West cost. That’s when we first met Dennis, and he agreed to take our case.

Through his knowledge, professionalism, and compassion, he gave us what we needed most at that time-hope. Besides his legal expertise, he united our family again and gave us the confidence that things would work out. His instincts for our case proved effective in dealing with a very obstinate school district, and he not only implemented an agreement with our school district that they would pay 100 % of our son’s schooling in the West, but he negotiated a settlement whereby the district also was forced to pay all of our family’s traveling expenses when visiting our son (more than 14 trips in all). Needless to say, we owe Dennis a huge debt of gratitude. We feel that he is in the top of his field in educational law.

A happy footnote to our case: Our son graduated summa cum laude from college and has been accepted for graduate study at the University of Chicago.”

– Mr. and Mrs. B

 

“Dennis was instrumental in helping my daughter during a difficult time in her life and I am grateful to him for that. He had a better understanding of how to deal with a troubled pre-teen than many of the educators and psychologists in my local school district. I have highly recommended him to others looking for an educational attorney.”

I never wondered if she received my message because she responded within the hours or responded with a text message that she was in a meeting and would get back to me at the conclusion of the meeting. Her knowledge of the law was right on point or would say I want to check something out before giving a response. I admire individuals who don’t have a quick answer for every topic you question. I felt she was extremely knowledgeable with good examples in telling you the why behind her answers. In fact, I have a child that has issues and was the reason I wanted a firm that could write a Will to protect him and his inheritance. At our final meeting in Kelly’s office, she said I made a change that would be good for my son no matter what the circumstances would be at my death, and it was the perfect solution that I was looking for – so Kelly worked up until the end. When she told me what she did  — it was perfect! I walked out of her office that day feeling so blessed for it was the perfect answer I had been looking for, needless to say I felt my prayers had been answered.”

We had a very difficult and unique situation with my son’s placement in school, as his current school was no longer willing to support a virtual learning model for him, despite acknowledging it was not safe for him to be back in school. Amy was excellent in responding to my questions and keeping everything on task and in order. Kim was very skilled at giving me practical advice. Thanks to their excellent guidance, our son was able to finish out his school year as if nothing changed. Next year he will be attending a virtual program with peer interaction at a new school. We could not be more pleased with the outcome. Kim and Amy were not only masterful at achieving this result, but extremely caring during the process as well. We are forever grateful.”
