Leona Zelda Goldshaw

Leona has my family's gratitude forever. She helped us obtain appropriate placement for our 14 year old son with very significant learning and social-emotional struggles. Leona helped us understand our strange and non-intuitive system of legal redress. Our district excels at denial and stonewalling a...nd Leona was persistent, careful, methodical, and very fierce when it counted! She knew where our leverage was and won the necessary concessions. Not to mention getting the district to pay us back legal and some other expenses in this struggle for reasonable accomodations. We couldn't be more pleased!

Leona made an incredibly challenging time with issues regarding our daughter’s education easier to navigate. She is thoughtful in her guidance, has exceptional attention to detail and is kind and caring. While I wish we hadn’t needed a lawyer, working with Leona was an easy process and ultimately br...ought us successful results.

In just a 30 minute phone call, Leona made me feel more at ease as a parent. My son is autistic and Leona helped me feel informed and in control of all of our options when it comes to his IEP and specialized education rights. I feel more confident in my understanding of the process as well as my avai...lable opportunities moving forward. I can't say enough kind words about an individual like Leona who truly does this work for all the right reasons!

Leona Goldshaw was incredibly knowledgable and supportive with regards to helping us navigate a very difficult situation with our son. She is a true expert in her field. She was very caring, organized and detail oriented. The outcome was excellent and in a very timely manner. I would give her 10 star...s if I could!

We retained Leona's help to get our son into a school more equipped to serve his neurodiversity. Our son has high functioning autism and was in a critical mental health crisis due to his learning environment when we met Leona. She was kind, level headed, and patient with us as we navigated learning w...hat we needed to know. She helped show us the way. Leona is responsive and great at explaining things. She was tough and very thorough. We were perfectly coached and prepared by her to get our son into an environment that is most appropriate for him. He is now flourishing. We owe so much of his new-found comfort and budding confidence to Leona. She knows the law and will fight for your child. We are forever grateful for Leona Goldshaw.
