Denise is extremely knowledgeable in the area of Special Education. She can support your advocacy of your child, advocate for your child in a meeting and take the Dostrict to Court, if that is needed. Her knowledge and expertise helped me navigate a maze and get the support my children needed.

I give Denise Cahill no marks because she deserves not one. In order to fill this out you still must Rate! We needed a lawyer to handle our Autistic child. We had discussed our situation over the phone with a Free Consultation she was saying we had a good case and was totally on board with our goals. Once we got to the consultation she changed her story on which way to go once she had our retainer and consult. Fee she pulled the bait on switch on us and said she doesn't think she can meet our goals w/o even looking at the docs. She then asked for more $ if we wanted her to proceed that our case was too complicated! This was in an email all being after only one week and two pages of documents. She wrote one letter to the schools atty. Stating she was retained by us and stated if we don't give her more $ she'll drop our case! How does someone get away with this kind of behavior? She shld. Be disbarred for telling me all this and stating "my kid is complicated" after laying down thousands of dollars!!!! Ms. Cahill is only a glorified advocate but really at best a con-man/woman!!!!!

Im having issues with my son at his current school. I needed someone aggressive, organized and experienced with special needs education issues. I specifically wanted her to fight for another placement for my son so he could go to a therapeutic day school as he needs intensive behavior modification Instead, at the IEP meeting, she focused on minute, insignificant details in regards to his goals that were not important to me. I had to refocus on the placement issue, but she did not fight for it. Later, she casually told me that I would not get what I wanted anyway. I feel awful as I spent the only savings that I had.
