An experienced special education law attorney walks you through the rights of divorced, separated, or never-married parents and your district’s obligations to them under the IDEA — so you’re prepared to handle issues that arise when parents disagree about their child’s services.
Along with learning the different types of legal custody arrangements, you get guidance to:
- Identify who has the legal right to request and consent to evaluations
- Ensure that consent for the IEP placement is proper
- Determine residency when parents have joint custody
- Maintain student records in accordance with FERPA
Plus, you get a 3-page checklist walking you through all the issues that must be addressed when parents have joint custody — to help ensure you don’t overlook a key consideration.
