Missouri and Illinois Special Education Attorney

I am a parent of a child with a learning disability. I first got involved with special education over fifteen years ago. I only represent parents, not school districts. I help parents by consulting with them, attending IEP meetings, and representing them in Due Process Hearings. I am also a Due Process Hearing Officer for the State of Missouri.

In addition to a law degree from Washington University in St. Louis, I have a Masters in Public Health specializing in Education. I also practice law in the area of employment discrimination and I represent people with disabilities. This gives me experience in other areas of disability law that often overlap with special education law.

Each time I get a new client I learn something new about people with disabilities, about learning, and about life. It’s what I like best about my job. I look forward to working with you.
