Heather Jean Gold

Heather is a unique and exceptional class of lawyer in a field of Special Education Law. She represents individuals with disabilities and their families that are incomparable to the field at large. She helps you navigate through the special education process with the upmost honesty and integrity. She... provides absolute clarity of your options and informs you of all your possible outcomes right from the start. There is no one I know that can match her tenacity to help defend her clients with loyalty and devotion. She always puts her client’s interest in the forefront and is always proactive in preventing mishaps from occurring. She always pursues the best possible outcome for her clients. She has been with our family for nearly 15 years because she has always given extraordinary services. She is truly a five star lawyer that you shouldn’t ever pass up when it comes to Special Education Law.

We have been represented by Heather for two hearings, opposing two different districts 10 years apart in 2004 and 2014. We prevailed at both hearings due to Heather's hard work, meticulous detail, endless legal guidance, and her determination to fight for our son and his educational needs that were c...learly not being provided by the school districts. She is one of the most intensely driven people I know. My husband and I always say, "you definitely want Heather sitting on your side of the table, not the opposing side." She is a force to be reckoned with. Although unable to truly admire how proficient, well-paced, and strategic she was in court this past summer during the off-the-charts stress of our hearing, in retrospect, it was like watching her lay a foundation brick by brick and, upon completion, opposing counsel was trapped inside with no way out. Although we honestly hope to not have to go to yet a third hearing, should we have to, there is no one else we will call on but Heather. If you have children with special needs (we have two) and you are willing to do whatever it takes to get them what they need, then there really is no other choice than Heather Gold.

Heather was outstanding. She gave us perfect guidance in our dealings with the school system and totally kept us informed and supported. She is energetic and passionate; you definitely want her in your corner. We never had to use her in court as she successfully guided us through the process to av...oid it and get our son where he needed to be with the help he so desperately required.
