Peter D Hoffman

Consulted with him regarding special education needs but we found him to be extremely rude, and he made insulting remarks about our race and religion. He gave poor advice, telling us that our case was “weak.” We took our legal needs elsewhere and have been successful. We are very happy with our new ...attorney.

We met Peter Hoffman at the lowest point in our lives. The day before our son was to attend a county funded preschool we were informed that the program did not employ anyone medically trained to insure the health & safety of our son. He was not allowed to attend the preschool program he was enrolled ...in which also provided all of his therapeutic services. The CPSE Meeting was awful & no solution was found. A week later, after meeting with several other attorneys, we met Peter Hoffman. He listened to us, gave us advice & instructions on what to write to our school district. He was direct, informative, helpful & kind all before we had agreed to hire him. He has always been direct, upfront & proactive with our son’s issues. Our journey to obtain the services denied to our son took a significant amount of time, however, without Peter our son would not have received any compensatory services for the year he was denied services. We appreciate everything Peter Hoffman has done on our son’s behave & highly recommended him to everyone.

My daughter has multiple disabilities that prevented her from receiving a free and appropriate education in district and modified settings. Peter was clear about objectives and possible outcomes. He was extremely accessible throughout the process. We settled the case to our satisfaction and our da...ughter now is in a targeted private school appropriate to her needs. Her behavior and ability to learn have improved tremendously. My husband and I are both lawyers with high expectations about performance and reasonable expectations about costs. We both highly recommend him.

We hired Peter because we needed help advocating for our daughter within our school system -- along with understanding the legal considerations. Peter has been an asset to us, very knowledgeable, patient, and kind; he helped move us through a challenging situation, where we felt stuck, which resulted... in a better outcome for our daughter. Very accessible, as well.
