Episode 148 - Special Education and Disability Rights and Advocacy with K Altman Law

from Let’s Talk Learning Disabilities · host Diagnostic Learning Services

In Episode 148 of Let’s Talk Learning Disabilities, Laurie speaks with Francesca Corbis and Melanie Roy from K Altman Law, a nationally recognized special education and disability rights law firm, who walk through the most common pitfalls families encounter in the IEP and 504 process - including the critical distinction between medical and educational diagnoses, the subjectivity of "educational need," the danger of template-driven dropdown goals without clear baselines, and the painful strategic reality that outside tutoring can actually undermine a child's eligibility case.Resources:K Altman Law Website: https://www.kaltmanlaw.comAdvocacy Circle: https://www.kaltmanlaw.com/special-education-services/the-advocacy-circleFrancesca's Contact Information: [email protected]'s Contact Information: [email protected] info for the podcast: [email protected] Learning Website: https://ediagnosticlearning.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eDiaglearning/Twitter: @diaglearningLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/diagnostic-learning-services/Instagram: @diaglearning
