Understanding the Case

Special Education and Student Services

Children with disabilities are entitled to meaningful educational opportunities and appropriate services under federal and state law. Our attorneys assist families with individualized education programs (IEPs), eligibility determinations, accommodation plans, manifestation reviews, due process proceedings, and related disability-rights matters.

 

We help families understand their rights, work through disputes with schools, and pursue the educational services and protections their children need.

 

Administrative Proceedings and Litigation

When a school-related dispute cannot be resolved informally, timely and strategic legal representation can make a meaningful difference. Metzger Rosta LLP represents children and families in administrative proceedings, disciplinary matters, due process cases, agency investigations, and litigation involving education-related issues.

 

Whether through negotiation, mediation, administrative proceedings, or courtroom advocacy, our attorneys remain focused on protecting the child’s rights and pursuing practical outcomes for the family.

Whether a family is seeking appropriate educational services, addressing concerns about a child’s safety or treatment at school, or pursuing accountability through litigation, our Education Law team is prepared to help.
