On a chilly day in December of 1996, a miracle happened. On that cold December day, Brett Fein, the third of four children born to me, Joseph Fein and my wife, came into the world. He was early. Very early.
New York Autism Education Services Lawyer
Autism, a complex biological disorder that typically lasts a lifetime, is thought of as a "developmental disability." It begins and is detected in a child's developmental period, prior to age three, and can trigger dramatic difficulties with development, growth and education.
At the Joseph M. Fein Law Offices in Hewlett and New York City, we represent the educational interests of all children, focusing on those with learning, physical and developmental disabilities like autism. Our law firm's founder can provide the kind of experienced input, in matters involving educational plans and litigation, that can make a difference in your disabled child's life and rights to autism education services.
Firsthand experience gained by both parenting and advocating the legal rights of his own special needs child helps Mr. Fein pinpoint and expedite your child’s educational needs. You'll find out what educational options are available to you and how to give a voice to your disabled child’s concerns to the Committee on Special Education.
Autistic children have a legal right to a free appropriate public education. If your child is disabled but isn't receiving those education services, contact us in Hewlett or Manhattan today by phone, fax or e-mail for an initial consultation.
Representing the Educational Interests of All Children
Our New York special education law firm's experience with autism education services has taught us that autism can affect:
- Communication, verbal and nonverbal
- Repetitive behaviors: repeating words or actions, obsessively following routines, exhibiting specific ways of arranging belongings
- Social interaction, physical and verbal
Health care providers, teachers and anyone else who comes in contact with an autistic child may have a great amount of difficulty "getting through." Hence, the critical need for special education for autistic children.
Today, autism is thought of as a “spectrum” disorder. Instead of amounting to a single condition, it's considered a group of conditions with a variety of similar features. Physicians employ a term like autism spectrum disorder, or ASD, to describe people with mild to severe symptoms. ASD can include:
- Asperger syndrome
- Atypical autism
- Rett's syndrome
- Autistic disorder
- Childhood disintegrative disorder (CDD)
- Pervasive developmental disorder
Our New York special education and disability law firm has years of experience in applying our legal knowledge and skills to protecting your child's right to autism education services. Please contact our Hewlett or Manhattan office. We can help.
