Engaging a law firm to represent your child is an important decision. A great deal is at stake, and your child is counting on you to make the right choices on their behalf.

Mayerson & Associates’ core practice area is securing tuition funding under the federal IDEA statute. Our firm also has experience with bullying and other forms of abuse, inclusion, assistive technology, employment, vocational/transition training, suspension, expulsion, and other disciplinary hearings, discrimination, and related damage claims, child protective services proceedings, IEP development, pendency entitlements, and compensatory education. To date, we have represented more than 1,200 families in more than 30 states and also consult to families living abroad.

Our philosophy is simple: Every child is entitled to have the opportunity to learn and be educated in an appropriate and effective educational setting so that when they transition to adulthood, they can transition to something meaningful and fulfilling. For 20 years, Mayerson & Associates has built a solid record of success, helping families obtain and fund the highly individualized educational programs that their children require.
