Lillian Elisabeth Wong

Lillian Wong is the most passionate, understanding attorney in special education law. We hired Lillian after meeting with her for a complex case involving our son who had learning disabilities. She was very open and responsive throughout the entire process. Took the time to thoroughly understand o...ur case, worked with us on a daily basis, as well as, calmed our fears throughout the emotional rollercoaster. She was the most passionate individual I have met regarding children’s rights and understood the intricacies of the law. She provided us with a strategy, explanations of what to expect, and truly partnered with us on our case. We feel as though she is a member of our family at this point as we have the utmost trust in her abilities and dedication. We can not say enough about Lillian. We would recommend her to any family facing challenges with school districts and their children.

I was recommended to Lillian by my advocate, whom I had hired to fight the District for failure to provide services for my daughter who is currently a senior in high school. Lillian came highly recommended by my advocate who had recommended many others to Lillian, saying that she was: "very intellige...nt, and has never lost a case in all the years I have referred people to her." Lillian from the start tried to understand and accommodate my unique situation. She was not only intelligent, but very strategic in how she chose to handle the situation. In addition to this, Lillian is very personable, and also responds in a very timely way. We ended up settling out of court, but Lillian went above and beyond what any lawyer would be expected to do --- even at personal sacrifice and cost to herself. Though she had never met my daughter, she had deep compassion for her situation, and cared a great deal about the outcome. If you are trying to decide on a lawyer, I can say personally and confidently that your search can end with Lillian. Her care --- not only as a lawyer, but as a person --- will have value to my daughter on multiple levels for the rest of her life. Words are inadequate to express my thankfulness for Lillian's magnanimity and generosity to our family. Any of her future clients will be both fortunate and exceedingly blessed in their association with Lillian.

Attorney Lillian is very good in finding the key points of my daughter's out-district placement case, and made strategies that is appropriate for us. She is excellent in communicating with school district attorney about what our family need, very efficient in delivering and sharing what message or an...y information she got from school or BSEA, even on weekends and evenings. She is very good in communicating with me even I am not a native English speaker. She is also very experienced and efficient in answering special education law related questions. She also has a warm heart and understood the parents’ feeling for children with autism, and made it her relentless responsibilities to help them.

Attorney Wong is a dedicated professional who is very well educated in Special Education Law. She listens to the client, pays attention to details and is quite capable of not only presenting an excellent case, but also in winning the case! We were up against an uncooperative special education depar...tment, who were trying to cut corners in order to save money, at the expense of our son’s education. They presented us with many inexpensive and inappropriate "solutions" sighting the excuse of "least restrictive environment” and continually asked for more lengthy evaluations, in hopes of dragging out the process. They used many stalling tactics in hopes of discouraging us, but Attorney Wong steadily pushed forward to a successful outcome for our son. Our son is now a student at one of the most prestigious private therapeutic high schools in Massachusetts and is finally receiving the education to which he is entitled. We trusted our son’s future to Attorney Wong and she did not let us down.
