[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] Our advocate was $150 an hour Was a Special Education teacher that taught every grade from pre-K to 12, including at an RTC, which was super helpful for us as we were transitioning DD from PHP back to her public high school. She also does expert witness work in education law cases nationally, so she knew the law and was very helpful in informing us of our rights. We are in Montgomery County. [/quote]
