Consultation Services for Families
Every parent should understand special education law and how it affects his/her child's educational programming.  Too often, parents attempt
to navigate through the world of special education without any guidance.  Without a compass, it's easy to get lost.

Consider Lowry-Fritz Special Education Law Consulting Services as your compass.  

Lowry-Fritz provides a wide array of special education law consulting services that meet the needs of most
families.  

Whether you are looking for answers to a few questions, or assistance at an IEP meeting, Lowry-Fritz can
show you the way.

Lowry-Fritz Special Education Consulting Services thoroughly prepares parents to
understand the law and to effectively collaborate
with the school
to create and implement appropriate special education programming.  

Lowry-Fritz Special Education Consulting Services does not represent students in due process hearings or civil suits.  Rather, we aim to
assist families in
partnering with schools in the development of optimal IEPs.  

Most consultation services can be provided through a home visit or telephone consultation, within one week of your initial call.  

Please have your child's current IEP and recent evaluation reports available for review.  

Call 1 -630-222-9735 to discuss consultation options, and to schedule an appointment.  Out-of-state clients are welcome.
