Navigating Special Education Law: Attorneys Representing Parents & School Boards Discuss the Issues

I will be holding two, free information seminars on Special Education Law & Advocacy in April.  The first seminar will be held at the Fairfield Public Library on April 7th at 6:45pm, and the second will be held at the Wilton Public Library on April 26th at 6:45pm.  The program is entitled “Navigating Special Education Law: Attorneys Representing Parents & School Boards Discuss the Issues”.  This free seminar will be especially interesting to parents, educators, and service providers because it will give them the unique opportunity to hear both sides of the story regarding special education issues and learn how attorneys representing parents and school districts can attempt to work together to resolve various disputes.
