Michael G. Gilberg

Michael was thorough, diligent and effective in helping our family deal with very specific special education needs related to dyslexia. He listened to our needs and concerns and crafted his work accordingly to promote the best outcome. I highly recommend Michael. He is truly an advocate and has b...een instrumental in making a different in my child's education and ultimately, his life.

We had a very short notice need for a special needs educational advocate attorney and found in Michael Gilberg, a competent, passionate, compassionate and detail-oriented counsel. He was able to help secure outplacement for our special needs daughter, without having to go to mediation or due process.... Beyond thrilled.

Mr. Gilberg was always very diligent in following up with us when he represented us and our son with Autism. He was always available to talk, even late at night. With his legal help and expertise, we were able to get our son back into our local school district with the support services he neede...d and deserved.

I hired Michael as a special ED lawyer, to represent my child case, but unfortunately he did not met my expectations. There was a big lack of getting to know the case and he was very concerned about collecting checks only. He is not a self starter, instead of going through the IEPs to build a case, h...e was emailing me with questions that could be answered by reading the IEP. Lack of taken ownership on his actions. Have to be pushed too much to take actions. I was looking to have an IEP being reinforced by the district, instead of taking actions he was just looking for postpone the situation. Lawyers must meet parent's needs when it comes to Special ED, and he was just looking to extend the case as much as he could.Therefore, there was a lost of confidence. I do not recommend his services at all.
