Heather Jean Gold

My son was having enormous trouble in school and we were seeking an out of district placement. The school where we wanted him to go recommended her. She was abrupt and quite rude on the phone. She insisted I give her the name of our previous attorney who quit 2 or 3 months prior so I did. She called ...this person and then called me back to say she would not take our case. Talk about lawyers taking other lawyers' sides. The school who referred her was shocked to find out she refused to help us. I bet she is no longer on their referral list. In hindsight, I'm glad it didn't pan out. It saved us lots of money and heartache. Think twice!

Heather is not only an exceptionally knowledgable attorney and trusted advisor, she really cares about what she does and the wellbeing of her clients. The process we went through to address our son's educational needs was extremely emotional, unpredictable and draining. But Heather kept her eye on o...ur son's needs throughout the process and handled our situation rationally, honestly, logically and professionally. We could not have had a better advisor or outcome. Thank you, Heather.
