Amazing Team

This firm was heaven sent. The DOE was not helping my son in any way. He has a IEP and he just kept getting passed along no matter how much I fought for them to make the necessary changes. I was referred to this firm and told to speak with them regarding my frustrations. They took my case and worked... vigorously for 3 years to get me everything my son needs. My son is now receiving all the services he requires, getting the proper help and has been granted private school placement. I am so thankful for everything they helped me accomplish. It was a rough 3 years but in the end my son will receive all the help he needs and I have them to thank for it. They were the advocates we needed.

The Right Attorney

Even though I am an attorney myself, I knew I needed someone with expertise in education law to handle my son’s case. Gina DeCrescenzo has that expertise and I definitely made the right choice putting my son’s case in her hands. I felt very well informed by Gina and her staff each step of the way a...nd I literally slept better after she started handling things. But it wasn’t just her expertise that made me feel better – it was her passion for my son’s case. You don’t expect someone to be as passionate about your kids as you are, but she was. You couldn’t ask for a better advocate for your kid!

Gina to the rescue with relief and victory.

Surprisingly, we selected Gina instantaniously. It felt right. The seed of doubt in the district was also instantaniously replaced with a monsoon of hope. We highly recommend Gina if you need help maximizing your childs academic potential. From the beginning she delivered validation, consistency,... knowledge of the law, determination, stamina, rigor and passion. What I admire most about Gina is the ability to make her clients feel like partners in crime. We were on a mission to prevail together and I will always have a special place in my heart for her. Can you say that about your attorney?

Gina got my child the education he deserves!

When the school district was not meeting my child's needs, I met with multiple attorneys to decide how to proceed. I chose Gina because she was personally outraged when she saw his current IEP and heard what the school was doing. Until the district started dealing with Gina, we were getting nowhere.... Then, once she started representing us, they were suddenly interested in solving the problems. Gina's advocacy helped us avoid going to hearing and her ongoing guidance during the settlement process was critical. She kept helping me hone in on what I thought my child really needed for future success. Because of her brilliance and keen negotiation skills we signed a settlement that truly sets my child on the right path for the future! Charlie, the office manager was also so kind and helpful and helped me connect with Gina when I had an urgent question during the process. Gina has also helped me prepare for subsequent CSE meetings. I always feel great after any conversation I have with her because she hears my questions and concerns and addresses them in a straightforward and understandable way. I learn more skills for the future every time I speak with her. If you need a fighter in your corner, I urge you to consult with Gina!
