Do not recommend

Rude, discourteous, and completely lacking in compassion. Did not appear to have any grasp of the legal recourses available. Thankfully it was just one discussion, and we have since found an excellent attorney that can support us in our long legal battle.

Did nothing for us

We walked into an IEP meeting for our son and were shocked at what OUR lawyer, Mr. Fein, was asking for! He had not communicated to us, before the meeting, what he recommended. I assumed he was advocating for what we told him we were looking for as he did not say otherwise when we met with him. He a...ppeared to be a lawyer for the school district! I think he was taken with some of the people in the room and trying to impress. Had to give one star.

Excellent Service and Results

I have been working with Mr. Fein for the past two years and it has been an extremely positive experience. Mr. Fein knows exactly how to navigate the complex Department of Education process. For the past two years Mr. Fein has been successful in helping me obtain the services my child needs. He i...s knowledgeable, strategic and respected as an expert in this specialty practice area. At the same time, he is a caring and compassionate individual that takes a personal interest in the success of the families he represents. It has been a pleasure working with him and I am appreciative of his guidance and support.

Outstanding Attorney

Joseph Fein has helped me obtain services from the Department of Education for three of my children, over the past few years. Each child has had a different issue with disparate needs, and yet Joseph has been equally successful with each one. In one polite email he is able to accomplish more than I ...can in months of correspondence. In person, people respect him and listen to him. He is a compassionate person who genuinely cares about the interests of the children he represents and empathizes with the parents whom he helps. I always find him to be organized, extremely reliable, sensitive, logical and effective. I have recommended him to friends who are equally as impressed. Overall, Joseph Fein has been a godsend, and I recommend him with the highest confidence.
