My Client's Feedback
“My husband and I chose Margaret to advocate for our 13-year-old daughter, helping us to navigate the school system’s process for creating individual education assistance, helping us choose a therapist and tutor, and working with us to look at all of our options for potential high schools that would be a good fit."
"All of her recommendations have been perfect for us. Our daughter loves her therapist and her tutor – her grades have improved significantly, her homework gets completed and turned in without meltdowns, and her anxiety levels have been greatly reduced."
"Margaret has also been invaluable in getting an IEP for our daughter – working with us to figure out the system, translate the jargon into language we can understand, communicating with the school staff directly on our behalf and attending school meetings with us in order to get the process completed in a way that is tailored to actually be helpful for our daughter as she moves into high school."
"With Margaret’s help we’ve been able to see our daughter again as the bright and talented girl that she is instead of always thinking about how she’s falling behind."
“Margaret was instrumental in helping our daughter obtain accommodations for dyslexia. Her advice and guidance allowed us to navigate the challenging and tortuous path between the ADA law and the school system. With her help, we were finally able to secure the needed accommodations to let our daughter demonstrate her true abilities in the classroom and on standardized tests. She was a godsend when we felt beaten down by the system. We would recommend her without reservation.”
