San Bernardino Special Education Attorney
We know it can be difficult to navigate the educational waters if you have a child who is or should be receiving special education services. Evaluations are difficult to understand. IEP meetings can be intimidating because school district members outnumber the parents.
At The Law Offices of Liu & Naime, we have decades of experience and have handled hundreds of cases. Our attorneys know how to read the evaluations. We have access to experts who can evaluate your child. We have the experience, knowledge and resources to stand up to school districts. School districts know this, too. Many of our cases settle early because of this.
Your Child Has A Right To An Education
If your child’s disability is affecting his or her education, he or she may be eligible to receive special education services under the IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The IDEA requires public schools to seek out and serve children with disabilities who may need specialized education. These children must “have available to them a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) that emphasizes special education and related services designed to meet their unique needs.” Children with disabilities must “to the maximum extent appropriate [be] educated with children who are not disabled.”
According to the National Center for Education Statistics, from 2015 to 2016, the number of students ages three to 21 receiving special education services was 6.7 million, or 13% of all public-school students. Unfortunately, school districts do not always provide the right special education services to students.
