Single Practice

Experienced education lawyers

Lewicky, O’Connor, Hunt & Meiser education lawyers have years of experience helping clients address challenges arising from the education of children, including: IEP meetings, Section 504 meetings, Due Process Hearings, redistricting disputes, and disciplinary actions.

IEP Meetings

Our attorneys represent families in Individual Education Plan (IEP) meetings with public school teachers, counselors, and administrators who make up the IEP team. The IEP process can often be complicated and difficult for parents and students alike. Having an attorney to advocate on behalf of your child can streamline the process and ensure that your child receives the services they need.  Federal law requires that every student be provided a free and appropriate public education.  Attorneys at Lewicky, O’Connor, Hunt, & Meiser ensure that the school system is held accountable for meeting all state and federal requirements and providing your child the education and services to which they are entitled.

Section 504 Meetings

Our attorneys represent families in Section 504 meetings with public school educators when a student’s needs do not rise to the level of requiring an IEP.  Students may qualify for accommodations under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 when they have a disability that without accommodations would exclude them from participation in any school activity, deny them benefits of a school activity, or subject them to discrimination under any program receiving Federal financial assistance.
