At Jacobson Education Law we work to protect the educational rights of children with disabilities.
Jacobson Education Law is dedicated to protecting the educational rights of children with Disabilities and ensuring they get the services, placement and education they are entitled to under the IDEA [The Individual with Disabilities Education Act]. At Jacobson Education Law, we believe that when a child has a disability it is critical that they receive support as soon as possible, be it multi sensory reading programs, academic remediation, behavioral services, therapies, or mental health services and/or placements.
We will investigate your child's case on a continuing basis so your child is protected as he or she grows. No matter the circumstances, we'll treat you with respect. We guarantee effective, meaningful and aggressive representation. Our reputation and history of successful representation speaks for itself.
At Jacobson Education Law we understand the frustrations you face when fighting for your child. We know you have been blamed for your child's failure to progress and we know you have been faced with an incredible battle that never seems to end. You can rely on our training, knowledge, experience and dedication to guide your family through this challenging process. We will help you unlock your child's potential with the free, appropriate education he or she is entitled to.
