I really cannot speak highly enough about Allison and her tremendous work! She is excellent and outstanding in every respect. When we found ourselves caught in a nightmarish situation with our son's school district, we interviewed at least 5 attorneys before ultimately choosing Allison. It was the best decision that we ever did. Allison was a fierce, passionate, and highly strategic advocate that fought for us and got our son the right services and placement that he deserved. She is not only an amazing attorney but also a former special education teacher, which made her tremendously invaluable throughout the process, because she had first hand experience of being a teacher. Moreover, Allison was always accessible and easy to reach which was very helpful during a stressful process of having our son be removed from the intensive behavioral program and into general education where he belonged. Overall Allison's knowledge of the law, passion about the subject, and dedication to her clients makes her into an amazing educational advocate. Thank you Allison for all that you have done, we will be eternally grateful!

I consulted with Allison regarding the accommodations process for the California bar exam. She provided invaluable advice and my accommodations were ultimately granted in full. I would highly recommend her to anyone navigating the bar exam accommodations process.

I met with Allison because my daughters school refused to give her speech therapy. Thanks to Allison, my daughter gets speech therapy twice a week at school. The school also has to make up speech sessions that my daughter would have had since the start of school. And the school had to pay all my legal fees. She really cares about a child’s well being. Hiring her is a sure win!

I’m so impressed with Allison. Through the years we desperately reached out to lawyers who did nothing to help us and never even came up to Antelope Valley. The issues I fought for my children were never resolved until now. This lawyer (Allison) has addressed the issues from the first moment I hired her. I was shocked when she showed up to the IEP. All the past lawyers never did. I finally felt like I had a real advocate and ally. To top it off she’s an amazing lawyer with a great mind. After all these years watching my child decline drastically, I finally have hope again. Allison is a great lawyer but she’s a great human too. I’m so grateful I found her.

When faced with a nightmare situation where my disabled son wasn’t receiving services and was assaulted at his school, Allison fought hard to get him justice. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful and thorough. We settled out of court. My son is now thriving at a new school thanks to Allison’s hard work and dedication.

Allison was by far the biggest blessing we came across during our legal matters. I called four different attorneys and her office called back same day. From our first video call I knew that we were in excellent hands, allowing my anxiety from the situation to subside.
Allison is responsive, aggressive, shows compassion and is DEDICATED.
Her follow up emails noting every bit of progress kept me assured that we’d reach an expedient resolution.
We will forever be grateful and also keep her active as our family IEP attorney.
Thank you Allison!

Ms. Hertog has been an amazing asset for my son and I. She has consistently exceeded my expectations since our initial consultation. She immediately developed and executed her plan to assist my son to get the education and support services he requires. We have been misled and misinformed for years by the school district, despite all of the futile time and effort spent with ,IEP's, meetings, and complaints, I just was not satisfied with my child's progress, services, and placement. Ms. Hertog quickly identified the problems and revealed the multiple violations my son endured by the district. Without Ms. Hertog's expertise, this inappropriate education and treatment would have continued indefinitely. Her training, skills, knowledge, and expertise were exactly what we needed. She saved our son!! Due to Ms. Hertog's dedication, I feel she has empowered us to finally give him a fighting chance in life. We now have transparency with the district, opportunities for a better, appropriate education and placement in an environment where we believe he will be able to thrive. I have referred Ms. Hertog to several families in situations similar to ours. My only regret is that we didn't know about her years ago. Ms. Hertog is an phenomenal advocate and she is right there with you during the entire process. She keeps you informed during each phase of the case and ensures you understand every detail. We are eternally grateful and thankful to Ms. Hertog!!!

We were very happy and satisfied the way Allison worked with our case. She helped us to get the compensatory education for our kindergartener autistic kid. She listened to us and make sure of that we understand our rights. Our son will not be compensated for the lost of services that the school did not provided. But when we hire Allison my son got what he deserved. We really recommend her service.Thank you so much!

Very happy with the results! I'm happy I found Allison to help me with my reconsideration process for testing accommodations. As someone with a medical condition and learning disability, I struggled to obtained my recommended accommodations for the Medical College Admissions Test. This was particularly challenging because I lived many years not knowing of my learning disability. I highly recommend Allison to anyone looking for help with testing accommodations. Allison is very compassionate and a great listener! Very thankful.
