Allison Louise Hertog

I really cannot speak highly enough about Allison and her tremendous work! She is excellent and outstanding in every respect. When we found ourselves caught in a nightmarish situation with our son's school district, we interviewed at least 5 attorneys before ultimately choosing Allison. It was the be...st decision that we ever did. Allison was a fierce, passionate, and highly strategic advocate that fought for us and got our son the right services and placement that he deserved. She is not only an amazing attorney but also a former special education teacher, which made her tremendously invaluable throughout the process, because she had first hand experience of being a teacher. Moreover, Allison was always accessible and easy to reach which was very helpful during a stressful process of having our son be removed from the intensive behavioral program and into general education where he belonged. Overall Allison's knowledge of the law, passion about the subject, and dedication to her clients makes her into an amazing educational advocate. Thank you Allison for all that you have done, we will be eternally grateful!

Allison was by far the biggest blessing we came across during our legal matters. I called four different attorneys and her office called back same day. From our first video call I knew that we were in excellent hands, allowing my anxiety from the situation to subside. Allison is responsive, aggress...ive, shows compassion and is DEDICATED. Her follow up emails noting every bit of progress kept me assured that we’d reach an expedient resolution. We will forever be grateful and also keep her active as our family IEP attorney. Thank you Allison!

Ms. Hertog has been an amazing asset for my son and I. She has consistently exceeded my expectations since our initial consultation. She immediately developed and executed her plan to assist my son to get the education and support services he requires. We have been misled and misinformed for years by... the school district, despite all of the futile time and effort spent with ,IEP's, meetings, and complaints, I just was not satisfied with my child's progress, services, and placement. Ms. Hertog quickly identified the problems and revealed the multiple violations my son endured by the district. Without Ms. Hertog's expertise, this inappropriate education and treatment would have continued indefinitely. Her training, skills, knowledge, and expertise were exactly what we needed. She saved our son!! Due to Ms. Hertog's dedication, I feel she has empowered us to finally give him a fighting chance in life. We now have transparency with the district, opportunities for a better, appropriate education and placement in an environment where we believe he will be able to thrive. I have referred Ms. Hertog to several families in situations similar to ours. My only regret is that we didn't know about her years ago. Ms. Hertog is an phenomenal advocate and she is right there with you during the entire process. She keeps you informed during each phase of the case and ensures you understand every detail. We are eternally grateful and thankful to Ms. Hertog!!!

Very happy with the results! I'm happy I found Allison to help me with my reconsideration process for testing accommodations. As someone with a medical condition and learning disability, I struggled to obtained my recommended accommodations for the Medical College Admissions Test. This was particular...ly challenging because I lived many years not knowing of my learning disability. I highly recommend Allison to anyone looking for help with testing accommodations. Allison is very compassionate and a great listener! Very thankful.

I am a trial attorney and I go against other lawyers all day, every day. I can say with confidence that Allison did an outstanding job during my son's IEP meeting. She was extremely prepared, very persuasive, and not intimidated one iota. Her experience was obvious and everyone knew it during the m...eeting. In additional to her legal skills, Allison really understands the details of each disability. She suggested classroom strategies that have proven effective, and because of her training in the education field, she was able to clearly communicate these ideas to the school in their language. We are very happy (and lucky) to have found Allison.
