Mrs. Grewal "The one" you want on your childs side

As a single mother with a beautiful and intelligent daughter who has special needs I've been fighting and advocating for her rights ever since I can remember. It wasn't until a few years into elementary school that I knew I was going to need someone with a Bigger and Stronger voice than mine. We are ...truly grateful that we found Mrs. Grewal she has made such an impact in our lives and in my daughters education tremendously. Punam has helped and stood by my daughter not once but twice when schools have tried to take advantage of my daughter and her disabilities. Mrs. Grewal made sure to get back what the schools have taken from my Daughter and much more. She has given my daughter a greater chance to be successful and she will.

Scamm

I went to Punam Patel Grewal seeking help for my family case. The first 15 minutes were awesome because it was free and she tells you what you want to hear. She is like waiteress and I need to do my part which I did. I was excited I could get good representation. I gave her my retainer money. My hear...ing got postponed to a later date and never heard from them again. She told the court it was a internal error. Once the hearing was close they started calling me. Using up all my funds. The paralegal was the most rude careless person. They kept all my money. What did they do absolutely nothing. Then they asked me for 10k more. For her to represent me. No thank you. I am so upset just a waisted my money time. On what? Nothing. I hate them more than what I hate the system which failed me.

Mrs. Grewal is the answer to all parents who have special need children!!!

My son's transition to junior high school was a disaster!!! My husband and I spent two years fighting the school district without representation. We made every attempt to work with CNUSD. We spoke with several attorneys and decided that Mrs. Grewal would best represent our interest. She immediat...ely filed a formal complaint with the Office of Administrative Hearings. She fought the district vigorously!!! Not only did Mrs. Grewal meet our expectations, SHE EXCEEDED THEM! Our son is now in a private school. His needs are being addressed. Unlike the school districts, Mrs. Grewal clearly understands the law and how it is applied. She leaves nothing on the table. She cares about kids and the future of our country. Mrs. Grewal was always polite, courteous, and available to us during the two years we worked with her. We are great-full for all her assistance and everything she did to get justice for our son. If you want someone who will get the job done, we recommend you give Mrs. Grewal the opportunity to discuss your situation. Feeling Blessed!

Ms. Grewal is an excellent attorney! She's detail oriented and tenacious! I'd recommend her to anyone that has a child with a disability. Unlike most lawyers out there, she rolls up her sleeves and gets into the case and tears it apart - explaining everything she's doing from step one! She will t...ell you exactly what she expects from you; tells you what NOT to do, and is comforting in a sort of way not too many attorneys are. I'd recommend her in a heart beast. I put all my trust in her and she came through! I'm writing this review because I can finally sleep at night knowing that my child is safe and in the right school with the right services!!

Job Well Done!

So glad Punam took my daughters case, I was trusting school officials because I knew them personally. When Punam read the IEP she found several violations in my daughters IEP. Upon finding the violations she acted on them immediately. We were in a meeting with the school officials immediately correct...ing the violations. I was on the verge of spending $7500.00 for a independent evaluation and because fiercely opposing the school district the ended up paying for the evaluation. Mg daughter has now gone on to college and furthering her studies while working hard everyday. I can't thank Punam enough for the dedicate and thorough work she did in my daughters case. Thanks again Punam.
