For Dallas 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 Dallas 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 your child attends school in Dallas or a nearby Texas district, you deserve a clear plan and someone who can explain your options in plain English.

What is the difference between an IEP advocate and a special education attorney in Texas?
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 Dallas families start with an advocate.
