Steven Wyner became interested in special education law when the public school could not teach his son, Jonathan, how to read.  He made up his mind to exercise Jonathan's rights. 

Marcy Tiffany became involved in special education law because the school district was failing to meet the needs of her gifted, but learning disabled, child. 

Two of our paralegal/advocates, Dona Wright and Jen Ralph,  have children who have been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. 

We know what it a struggle it is to obtain appropriate services for our children.  We have shared the anguish of parents who watch their children combat enormous obstacles to obtain an appropriate education.  We understood the frustration of dealing with an unresponsive public school bureaucracy. 

The fact is, public schools take lawyers more seriously than parents.  For this reason, Steven and Marcy redirected their skills as lawyers toward helping children with special education needs.  With the expertise and the support of our staff, we have helped many families identify and obtain the services that their children require.  We believe our personal experiences give us a unique perspective on the practice of special education law.
