Special Education Lawyer
Attorney Jeff is attentive to detail. He attended my child's IEP meeting and helped us request and get what our child needed with respect to services in the school setting. He was also able to get the school to agree to in home services and consultation with our outside providers.
"Jeff is an extremely insightful and passionate attorney. He works toward resolutions efficiently but is not afraid to take a case to trial. His work ethic is unmatched. His clients are lucky to have him."
"I strongly recommend Jeff Forte. He is excellent in the area of disability rights for students as well as criminal and other representations that involve detailed attention to disability law."
"Jeff is an extraordinarily qualified lawyer who delivers aggressive representation to his clients. I have had the pleasure of consulting with him on a number of matters and have always found his insight to be well-reasoned and comprehensive."
