Understanding the Committee on Special Education (CSE) process can be daunting. We aim to make the process clear for you so you can feel confident moving forward. From initial evaluations to meetings and hearings, we help you to communicate and address your child's needs.
Our approach is compassionate and client-centered. We believe that a supportive and informed journey through the special education law process can significantly reduce stress for families. We take the time to listen to your concerns, explain your options, and advocate fiercely on your behalf.

As your advocates, we stand beside you every step of the way. Our mission is to ensure that your child receives the appropriate educational accommodations they deserve. We understand the stakes and are committed to fighting for your child's rights within the education system. We've helped many before, and here are some of the things they've shared about our support.
The staff of Susan Lugar & Associates have been our rock through a very difficult time. They have helped us on the legal end, in trying to seek reimbursement when the district could not provide FAPE (free and appropriate public education), they have helped us navigate the system all together. The staff we worked most closely became confidants who truly saw and understand our student and their unique needs. Highly recommend!
We have used SLA for 9 years now and I cannot say enough good things about them. They make a daunting job of navigating the whole special education process manageable. When we started I had no idea the amount of work and effort that goes into this process. SLA have great employees who are hard working friendly and caring. Everyone we have dealt with has done a great job and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
The words “thank you” are inadequate. This is my 5th year retaining SLA. Each of the employees I deal with whether they be the educational specialists, the attorney, advocate for my son. When I first retained them, I needed a lot of “hand holding.” They have prepared me for all of the meetings and I felt zealously represented and prepared to speak. This firm has always delivered a positive determination, and prompt reimbursement. For what it’s worth, some of my friends are still waiting for reimbursement from 2 years ago. Not I.
Joseph Fein did a remarkable job and we are so grateful to have found him. He was incredibly knowledgeable, skilled and effective. He has such deep experience and was able guide us patiently and expertly through this complex process. He always took the time to listen to our concerns and he explained every step of the way. His calm and competent approach provided great confidence during a stressful time and we recommend him without reservation!
