Education attorneys for child not being served by BUSD
Hello,
Have you worked with education attorneys Natashe Washington or Roberta Savage? If anyone has worked with either of them, I'd love to speak with you, especially if you had a child within BUSD. We are not being appropriately served in the school environment, there are compliance issues, and we are being stonewalled.
I'd prefer not to leave my name here but if you'd be able to share your contact, I'd be so appreciative.
At the end of my rope.

Although I did not hire Natashe Washington, I had a very positive experience talking with her, which led to a decision not to file a lawsuit. Our son had an IEP and needed residential treatment, which the school district (not BUSD) did not agree to. In our case, she would not require an up front fee to take our case, but would be paid out of the legal fees, if we first followed the process she recommended and she thought we could win. Her advice was very valuable and put us in a good position to have most of our costs for residential treatment covered by insurance, the Adoption Assistance Program, and the school district, without a lawsuit.
