If your child is a victim of bullying, you will want to consider seeking immediate legal representation.
Whether it be physical, verbal or cyber bullying, these matters need to be taken seriously with swift action among all involved parties.
These offenses should be taken seriously as they may become chronic issues and lead to negative long-term effects on your child and your family.

There are many reasons children experience challenges within the educational setting.
In some cases, a child's problem behavior interferes with their education and may lead to school disciplinary action or expulsion.
It is imperative that your child receive immediate accommodations in order to facilitate and address their needs within their school community.
Often times schools suspend or expel students with disabilities for behaviors that are a direct result of their disabilities.
This leaves a child feeling worthless, often viewed as a "failure."
