No exaggeration to say he saved my daughter!

First, I hate that you even have to consider hiring a lawyer at all in dealing with the school system (like Las Virgenes Unified). But where they lack in compassion and humanity, Education Justice Law and Adam Wasserman provide it. Due to an unforeseen medical condition with my daughter, the school d...istrict, of course, failed to provide support or the minimum accommodations. So, we hired Adam. He listened, and he took action. The great thing about Adam is that he was not only superb in meetings while advocating for our daughter and our family, he also educated us providing a range of options for the future. Moveover, he was successful! We got everything we asked for with the school district (and then some). Adam was a supportive force for our family during a stressful time. He normalized and crafted a strategy for us, then executed that strategy. He was responsive at all times and to all things, even seemingly insignificant questions. I highly, highly, highly recommend! He reminded our daughter how valuable she is and that the school system, while really messed up, doesn't define her or her future. He listened, provided options, and basically provided hope for my daughter where she had none before. He really did "save" her and pushed her toward a great future! Can't say enough about Adam!

A brilliant and compassionate advocate for children

Adam Wasserman ensures my children get the education they are lawfully entitled to. I am always impressed by his easy knowledge of specific behaviors in kids that require intervention in order to maximize their educational progress.

Great Experience.

Mr Wasserman was extremely helpful for dealing with our child's issues at school. My wife and I would highly recommend his services. We went through many years of dealing with our child's school and they offered very little to help with his learning disabilities. Adam got my child all the help we wan...ted and more. He got us accommodations for thing we didn't even know were available. Adam is professional, knowledgeable and kind. He sincerely cared about what we were going through with our child and dealing with his school. We highly recommend him.

Don’t waste time with anyone else

We had struggles with the school district that seemed to be never ending. We tried to work with counselors, principal and anyone that would listen from the school district. Our son was in an IEP and had made reasonable grades to be assigned Gen Ed going into High School. The school wouldn’t budge. We... hired an educational advocate. Still no success despite dropping a large sum of money. We were referred to Adam through a family friend and he immediately took charge with the district upon a positive initial consultation and worked diligently to achieve our goal. He was familiar with the circumstances and helped our son get on the right path to have all of his options open for college or whatever he decides when ready. Do not waste time or money with an advocate unless you have an extremely simple situation that you have been unable to resolve. Adam is a complete professional with the passion and drive to make things right when you feel the odds are stacked against you. I absolutely recommend him for any educational legal needs especially within the LVUSD school district.

Helped us get what our son needed

We hired Adam for the school year and he helped us get what our son needed. He was always professional. He texted or called back right away, even on the weekends. I felt that he cared about my son and our family. When the school district cancelled an end-of-school year IEP 30 minutes before the sched...uled date, Adam extended our retainer into the next school year.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Adam is an amazing education lawyer not just because of his legal skill but because he deeply cares about his clients and the challenges they face. I don't think you will find another lawyer with Adam's combination of knowledge of education law and passion for protecting the educational rights of children. As a parent myself, I never had to deal with a child with learning disabilities nor did I have to battle schools to provide proper resources and protection for my children. I can't imagine the horrible stress from having a vulnerable child that the school had cast aside. Even as a lawyer myself, I would not want to have to do this alone. I would someone like Adam on my side and the side of my child."
