Robyn Andree Painter

We are incredibly grateful for the outstanding support and dedication shown by Robyn throughout our journey navigating our son’s education. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a rare combination of compassion, professionalism, and unwavering determination that gave us both comfort and confidenc...e during a difficult time. Robyn took the time to truly understand our son's unique needs, and always approached the situation with empathy and care. Her knowledge of education law and advocacy was evident from the start, and she navigated complex challenges with a calm, confident, and strategic approach. Whether it was communicating with the school district, preparing documents, or helping us understand our rights, Robyn was always thorough, responsive, and deeply committed to our son's best interests. Thanks to Robyn’s efforts, our son now has the support and educational environment he needs to thrive—and for that, we will always be thankful. If you are looking for someone who is not only highly skilled but also truly cares, we wholeheartedly recommend Robyn Painter.

As I prepare for my kids to go back to school this year, my mind is at ease for the first time in two years that my child will actually get the education they need and deserve. Thanks to Robyn Painter and our dyscalculia tutor extraordinaire, we finally secured the IEP that we fought for over the cou...rse of almost two years. Robyn worked endlessly to gather data, interview stakeholders, and most importantly, to fully understand what our goals were for our child. After working with a couple different firms, I was ready to give up, but after hiring Robyn, we got everything we needed and more, on her first try! She is patient, comforting, thorough, caring, and incredibly fierce! I will only trust Painter Legal with my education legal needs from now on.

Robyn was an excellent advocate for us in obtaining a 504 plan for our 2E child. As a gifted student, it was easy for the district to dismiss him as fitting into the "average" grades/test results and therefore not needing accommodations. Robyn is highly knowledgeable in education law but her stronges...t quality is her empathy and her ability to balance the law with reality while working with her clients. Being a mother herself she empowers her clients during what are difficult times for our children and us as parents.

We consulted Robyn when we were seeking services for our elementary-school age son. Despite spending a career as a college professor, experienced with pedagogical choices, diverse learning styles, and classroom accommodations, I found being a parent in this process confusing and destabilizing. Robyn... helped me understand the context and choices--and gave me the language--so that I could more confidently support my son and his team.
