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.
Eligibility for Special Education Programs
Depending upon the age of the child, a Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) or a Committee on Special Education (CSE) will be formed to help the disabled child with a wide variety of issues, including his or her Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Special education attorney Joseph M. Fein has extensive experience with issues related to CPSEs, CSEs, and IEPs, and is committed to helping families take full advantage of the special education services available to help disabled children succeed.
Special Education Committee Members
As the parent of a disabled child, you are automatically included on your childs special education committee (CPSE / CSE). Other members of these committees include the childs general education and special education teachers, school psychologists, a school district representative, and others. This committee works together on a variety of matters, including the childs IEP.
CPSE / CSE Committee Decisions are not always final
The decisions made by these committees are not necessarily final. If you disagree with any of the determinations made by the CPSE / CSE, you do have rights. You can seek additional meetings with the committee to attempt to resolve disputes. However, representation by a skilled education and disability law attorney can be of great benefit to you and your child. Mr. Fein has extensive experience in these matters, and can help you effectively convey your childs situation and get the special education services your child is entitled to.
Unfortunately, CPSE / CSE meetings can be complex and frustrating. For seasoned guidance throughout the process, contact disability and education lawyer Joseph M. Fein today.
