From elementary and secondary school to universities and graduate programs, our attorneys have seen cases like yours and can help you plan out the best path forward towards resolving your educational dispute.
Our attorneys know how frustrating it can be to deal with schools that fail to provide the necessary accommodations for your child in school or when your child is facing a superintendent’s hearing or disciplinary committee. These processes are oftentimes complex, and if you try to “go it alone” when addressing these issues, you risk not being able to successfully negotiate your interests and hurting your educational career.
If you are facing an educational disagreement or dispute, consider reaching out to Tully Rinckey today for an initial conversation about how we can help you reach your educational goals. Your needs will always receive our highest attention and care, and we will deliver a practical solution to meet your needs.
Our attorneys have handled numerous matters for school officials, districts, and educators, including:
Additionally, our attorneys are familiar with many other aspects of education law, including areas around ADA/special education accommodations. Our attorneys serve as zealous advocates for children with special needs, assisting parents with:
Our attorneys also have experience with discrimination and misconduct matters. We help provide representation in superintendent’s hearings as well as helping to negotiate the removal or modification of student suspension. Our attorneys have a clear understanding of how these processes work and the quick timeframes they operate in. We also have experience with Title IX investigations/hearings.
While similar to traditional court proceedings, schools and universities are not obligated to follow traditional court norms. What this means is that you or your student aren’t necessarily innocent until proven guilty. Coupled with the pressure to maintain a good reputation. Schools often dispense punishment quickly, before a student can even understand what’s going on.
Even students who aren’t facing disciplinary issues but have educational disputes are at a similar disadvantage when trying to negotiate for ADA or special education accommodations. Without the assistance of an education attorney, these students and their parents would either be unable to mount a successful dispute or, worse, may be forced to accept the student’s fate without even filing a disagreement.
Tully Rinckey can offer professional guidance to parents, teachers, students, and staff navigating all types of disciplinary and school dispute matters. We have encountered situations like yours and can give you the assistance you need to attain the outcomes you want, from fighting for our client’s right to provide the kid with a free, appropriate public education as mandated by the IDEA to conducting violations and Title IX difficulties to ADA and other academic issues.
Our attorneys are well-versed in New York education law, and we often assist students in K–12, college, and other graduate programs around the state. We can act as an advisor to you regardless of where your school is located, whether it is in Syracuse or anywhere else across New York State.
We have nothing to say but wonderful things about our experience with Tully Rinckey-from start to finish. They do what they promise to do on their website- our attorney went above and beyond fighting for us against our school district. He responded quickly every time we had a question, and had our backs going up against our school district’s attorney. We are more than satisfied with the entire experience, and have highly recommended them to friends who are also having to fight for their child’s educational rights.
My daughter was denied speech services from the NYC Department of Education. I called Tully Rinckey PLLC and Nicholas Marricco was assigned to my case. Mr. Marricco and his team amended my complaint to the DOE and represented me during the initial hearing. He or a member of his team always kept me up to date with what was happening regarding my case. The IEP was eventually issued and I did not receive a copy from the DOE. Mr. Marricco ensured I received a copy within 48 hours of knowing that the IEP was finalized. He also reviewed the IEP with me and I was able to close my case with my daughter receiving the services she was entitled to. I would highly recommend Mr. Marricco and this firm to anyone having issues with educational institutions within NYS.
