Advocacy at IEP and 504 Meetings
An IEP or section 504 plan meeting can be a daunting proposal for the
parent of a child or teenager with Attention Deficit Disorder. A good plan may
make the difference between your child succeed in or failing in school.
The process can be intimidating and confusing. Parents may not know what to
ask for. They may not know what is possible. The school may be resistant to
and accommodations that you may propose. Often the school itself may not know
what to do or what is possible.
While this is not coaching, advocacy at IEP and Section 504 meetings is a
process that Name and Title
has become expert at. He will meet with you before the meeting, plan the
approach and then appear with you as your advocate at the meeting. Often one
meeting is all it takes. This can save you significant time, money and
emotional stress compared to other options.
In most cases Ken can negotiate an excellent IEP or 504 Plan that benefits
your child without the need for legal action of any kind. However, in
the event that Name and Title believes that you need even more "horse power"
behind you he will recommend one of the top education lawyers in the country
to litigate for you if necessary. You will discuss legal fees directly with
the attorney.
Please feel free to contact
Name and Title by telephone or e-mail to discuss
your IEP or 504 meeting.
