For Michigan families
When the IEP process feels overwhelming
If your child has an IEP or 504 plan, or you think they need one, you already know how much paperwork and school language there is. Many Michigan families feel unprepared at IEP meetings, unsure what to ask for, or stuck when a school says no to testing, tutoring, therapy, or other support.
That is more common than you think. You are advocating for your child while the school uses terms like FAPE, LRE, and present levels. Whether you are in Ann Arbor, Dearborn, or anywhere in Michigan, you deserve a clear plan and someone who can explain your options in plain English.
How it works

Michigan IEP and Section 504 advocate FAQ
Answers about hiring a special education advocate in Michigan, including cost, timing, virtual support, and Section 504 help.
How much does an IEP advocate cost in Michigan?
Most special education advocates in Michigan charge $75 to $250 per hour or a flat fee for an IEP meeting. Profiles on this page show the rate when listed. Many advocates offer a free first call before you hire.
When should I hire a special education advocate in Michigan?
Parents in Michigan often hire an advocate when a school denies testing, an IEP, or a Section 504 plan; when IEP goals are not met; before an annual review; or when they need help with IDEA and Section 504 rights.
What is the difference between an IEP advocate and a special education attorney in Michigan?
An IEP advocate helps you prepare for meetings, review school records, and negotiate with the district. A special education attorney can represent you in due process hearings and court. Most Michigan families start with an advocate.
Can I hire a virtual advocate for my child in Michigan?
Yes. IDEA and Section 504 apply nationwide, so many advocates serve Michigan families by video. They can review documents, join virtual IEP meetings, and explain how state rules apply to your school district.
How long does the IEP evaluation process take in Michigan?
After you sign consent, schools in Michigan typically have 60 calendar days to complete an initial evaluation and hold an eligibility meeting. IEP teams must review the plan at least once per year. An advocate can help track these deadlines.
How do I find a Section 504 advocate in Michigan?
Browse advocates by city on this page or filter search results for Section 504. Compare profiles for experience with accommodations, 504 meetings, and school compliance before you contact someone.
