Expert Guidance Without Full Legal Representation
Strategic Education Coaching
We provide strategic private coaching with an attorney so that you get our best ideas to implement yourself, without the need for direct attorney involvement.
This service is a great way to have access to top education attorneys without the expense of full representation. We provide advice on working with school officials, navigating disputes, and ensuring that students’ educational needs are met. We empower parents to advocate independently while having access to education lawyers for support when needed.
Through one-on-one strategy sessions with an attorney, we answer questions, help parents develop thoughtful plans for their child’s education, prepare for IEP or 504 meetings, understand their child’s rights, and develop effective advocacy strategies.

A Flexible Model That Puts Parents First
Our Parent Coaching services are virtual and tailored to meet each family’s needs. Whether you need one session or ongoing support, we’ll create a plan that fits your goals.
This coaching model empowers parents to confidently advocate for their children while still having access to legal expertise when needed. It’s a great option for families who want direction but don’t need full legal representation.
We’ll answer your questions, explain your rights, and guide you through special education roadblocks, step by step.
Empowering Parents or Leading the Charge—We Tailor Our Role to You
Every family is different. Sometimes, all a parent needs is a clear strategy and a bit of guidance. In this case, you may choose to work with us through our parent coaching model. In other cases, you may need a special education lawyer or trained advocate to attend meetings and work directly with the school system. We’ll help you decide what makes the most sense for your situation.
Whether you’re just beginning to ask questions, need help preparing for an IEP meeting, or are facing serious roadblocks that require legal intervention, we’re here. Our team of Maryland education attorneys and non-attorney advocates will listen to your concerns, review your child’s case, and help you take the next right step.
Challenges We Support
In the coaching context, we frequently help parents who:
Want to be the primary advocate but need guidance from a legal expert
Are preparing for an upcoming IEP or 504 meeting
Have questions about their child’s rights or school obligations
Are unsure how to navigate conflict with school staff
Are deciding between coaching, advocacy, or legal representation
Schedule an intake call to discuss whether special education parent coaching is right for you.
Whether you’re just getting started or are feeling stuck in the process, we’ll help you move forward with confidence.
