What People Are Saying About us

Compassionate Advocacy For Special Needs Students

All of us at Bilello & Soowal, PLLC went into education law because we believe that everyone deserves an education that is specifically suited to their needs. The law is clear in what is required of educational institutions when it comes to serving the needs of special education students and other nontraditional kids.

Far too often, schools fail to meet educational requirements mandated by law leaving those with special education needs asking questions and not receiving answers. Our goal is to help parents and students hold educational institutions accountable and make sure every student gets the educational services they are entitled to.
