Allison B. Vrolijk

Allison’s wise discernment was a godsend in meeting my son’s ( Noah) educational needs. She was was very attentive & honest. We had an in house consultation where she brought to my attention things that needed to be addressed in my son’s IEP. His IEP went from a seven page IEP to a 16 page IEP aft...er receiving help from Allison. She has attended numerous IEP meetings with me since our initial consultation. I know presently my son receives services that I had never considered when I first consulted her. I am so thankful I asked her to be a part of Noah’s IEP team. After her help, I believe communication between my son’s school & I is so much better. The school & I are not adversaries but are a team in meeting my son’s needs. That is in some part because of Allison’s discerning eye is guiding what is best educationally. I would advise anyone to consult with Allison because you will leave much better prepared than you are presently.

My child's middle school tried to block my child's access to a 504 Plan even after we had a comprehensive Psycho-Educational exam and report showing he was profoundly ADHD and only needed simple accommodations. Thanks to Ms. Vroliijk's knowledge of the law, my child's rights, and the education issues..., the school granted the 504 and knowing we had an attorney, the 504 Plan is implemented and improvements have been suggested. Allison met with my husband, my child and me, then secured a retainer, met with us again, attended the 504 meeting at the school, reviewed the plan and had many phone and email conversations with us. At the end of the process, we were refunded unused retainer promptly. A year later, even without a retainer, Allison has answered simple questions before our annual 504 Plan review. I highly recommend Allison Vroliijk!

We hired Allison after we had a few problems with my son’s school and how they were handling his behavioral challenges. Allison was amazing in her attention to detail, her understanding of our situation, and how we could deal with the school and help our son. I sought out Allison because I dealt wi...th her as a school employee, and I was impressed with her knowledge of school law and her realistic view on what can and can’t be done. I’ve recommended her to many folks who sit in that precarious position of educator and parent.
