Support for You and Your Child
It’s your natural parental instinct to want the best for your child.
The instinct is even stronger when your child has a disability.
It becomes your mission to pursue the best care and education possible.
Federal law should be on your side. It says your child is entitled to a free and appropriate public education. Your family also may qualify for disability benefits.
But sometimes, the system works against you.
That’s when the Cuddy Law Firm steps in to make sure your child gets the education and benefits he or she is entitled to receive.
Our experienced attorneys fight for your child’s current educational opportunities and future financial security.
Fighting for Your Child’s Education in Ohio
Your child has rights when it comes to their education. Special education law requires public schools to create Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) for children with disabilities. These plans are tailored to each child’s strengths and needs. The plans should undergo regular reviews and updates.
Sometimes, however, school systems fail to properly follow IEPs—or they ignore them entirely.
When this happens, get help dealing with the school system. They may have their lawyers push back against you. Make it a fair fight by getting legal representation of your own.
The Cuddy Law Firm puts strength on your side. We know the system. We know your rights and your options. We have decades of experience standing up for families and children.
Cost Should Never Stop a Family from Getting Representation
Every child with special needs deserves an appropriate education under the law. And we believe every family deserves legal representation when children aren’t getting the services they should.
You might wonder, though, how can you afford an attorney? It sounds expensive.
At the Cuddy Law Firm, we work on a sliding fee scale for families with limited incomes.
We strive to help families get access to a lawyer regardless of financial standing.
It’s not fair when your child is deprived of the education he or she needs. And it’s even more unfair if money is the reason your family can’t fight back to protect your child’s future.
So no matter your economic situation, if you’re in Cleveland or anywhere in Ohio call us today for an initial review of your case.
