Education Law

Attorneys at Law Works Illinois has been serving students and families through educational advocacy for a decade. They understand the complicated nature of an IEP meeting, implementing a successful 504 plan, and how to ensure students who may be on the verge of expulsion have their rights well represented.

Full representation with an attorney or advocate attending meetings may not be the best option - let’s talk about how you can best advocate first and then decide if full representation is right for you.

Your consultation will include a 45-minute phone call with an experienced attorney. Following the call, you will receive the following:

  1. Email with notes from the call,

  2. Practical next steps,

  3. Links to resources, and

  4. Templates or forms (as appropriate) to act on the practical next steps.


Our Process

  1. Intake Call

  2. Engagement and Initial Payment

  3. Gather and review preliminary information

  4. Attorney Strategy Session

  5. Follow-Up Email from Call
