Shane Thomas Sears

I contacted Mr. Sears concerning issues with my son who attends elementary school within the Tuscaloosa County Board of Education. He has special needs that consisted of Autistic Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Mixed Receptive Disorders, and others that are not listed. My son was removed from his IEP exce...pt for speech and placed on the behavioral plan within the school. This was working because he is a one on one child that had to have that attention in order to succeed on an everyday basis at school. After months of dealing with the school and awaiting reevaluation from the BOE I contacted Mr. Sears through the advise of his doctor. Mr. Sears took my case serious and treated me with the utmost respect. Through his knowledge and intelligence he was able to meet and demand action from the BOE during a resolution hearing. He has made sure that the BOE upholds their commitment to my son as well as providing me with the communication that a parent deserves. I highly recommend Mr. Sears for any and all educational matters concerning children with special needs because will he do everything legally and ensure consistency for the child. Mr. Sears also had one characteristic that sets him off from other attorneys and that is communication. He would talk and converse with me on a civilian level. He is an individual that I have recommended to several other parents who are having the same issue with their children throughout the surrounding counties. In closing, Mr. Sears, has ensured that my son will be obtaining all the accommodations in education that he is owed so that he can have a successful education. There is not and will never be enough "thank yous'" I can give this man for a job well done.

I came to Mr Sears knowing very little about legal terminology, & procedures. He was very helpful in educating me and answering all of my questions clearly. He quickly responded to any matter that arose and completely resolved our issues, getting my child exactly what he needed. I highly recommend... Mr Sears to anyone having an IEP or educational issue for a child with special needs.

We are anticipating nothing less than complete triumphant in the near future, but regardless of the outcome we will always consider Shane Sears a dear friend. Not only has Shane provided us reliable, responsible, dependable, and quality legal services, but he has done so in a caring and compassionate manner. I would strongly recommend Shane Sears' services.
