[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've gotten a lot of feedback on this thread but I'm still curious to know the hourly rates for advocates. Is there a difference in rates based on whether the non-attorney advocate has a background in education vs being a parent who has been through the process? You don't have to share the name if you don't want to but I want to know: 1. rate 2. background in education (former teacher)? parent? other? 3. school district [/quote] I was charged $300 for someone who used to work at a private school, didn't know the law, gave us bad advice, and didn't know how to help us overcome resistance from the school. That was the same rate as the much much more effective and knowledgeable attorney who we later hired. I soooo wish we had just gone right to the attorney. [/quote]
