[quote=Anonymous]I've used Rich Weinfeld (WEG) for 2 quite different kids. He was able to both advocate for IEP and/or 504 services and also be honest with us about what the school was capable of providing (i.e. things they were legally obliged to do, but were basically going to be incompetent at). You said you're not looking at placement. We didn't ask about placement either, but in the course of working with us, Rich gently changed my perspective on what my kid was capable of (far more than I understood), why it was best to educate to strengths (while also addressing weaknesses) and encouraged moves to 2 quite different types of educational environments for the same child at different time points - a child who has ADHD Inattentive, with some anxiety/mood/frustration, and language processing and dysgraphia issues, so one who sounds a bit similar to your DC.
