If you are looking for an attorney that specializes in special education, look no further! Attorney Laura Gillis and her staff are very professional, responsible, prompt, and respectful. Laura is honest and explains everything in a way we could understand. She made us feel like we were her only client and always had our best interests at heart. Attorney Gillis knows the law and is top notch. Highly recommend!!! She and her staff are the absolute best.

Laura Gillis is appropriately fierce and easy to work with. The “onboarding process” as a client was seamless and I received a timely appointment. Laura reviewed our documents thoroughly and was well prepared for our first meeting. She is definitely a subject matter expert with the IEP process and special education testing protocols and results. In addition, she helped identify the appropriate third party resources to support our family. I would highly recommend working with Laura for anyone wanting to help their children in their academic journey.

Laura was exactly the right person for us. She is direct and let us know the facts and the situation without sugar-coating. Her depth of knowledge in her area is terrific, and the opinions she gave were very helpful even when they were not what we hoped for. She was able to get us an excellent outcome.

Laura was the voice of calm and reason, guiding us through the often confusing and emotionally charged process of seeking alternative school placement for our teen daughter. She was very knowledgeable on each step/option and communication with her office was seamless. Her knowledge of the ins and outs of the special ed system and her relationships within the field allowed her to offer us realistic expectations for how everything would proceed and what we might expect in terms of accommodations. We could not be more thrilled with the outcome of our daughter's placement or more grateful for Laura's aid in getting us here!

We worked with Laura Gillis recently and were very impressed with how thoroughly, efficiently, and quickly she handled the case. She has amazing follow-through and excellent communication skills. You are never left wondering where you stand. I would highly recommend Gillis Law to any family seeking an education attorney.

Laura and her team was simply amazing. Answer ALL emails and phone calls regardless of time of day or night. She called me at 8:50pm one night just because she remembered something that I had to do that following day. He’s articulate when she speaks a pit bill in meetings and treated us like a family member. If you ever need an attorney in her line of work Laura is the way to go.

Our journey started 3 years ago, every step of the way Laura, Kate, and Torie provided helpful guidance and advice. Ultimately we were able to provide our son the educational support he needs for his dyslexia. We will always be grateful to Laura and the team! Highly recommend this top-notch firm!!!

Laura Gillis provided us with legal advice and guidance during a difficult and unsettling situation. We found Laura to be experienced, responsive, knowledgeable and honest. While working with Laura, we felt as though our situation was in adept and trustworthy hands, and she did not steer us wrong. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest and keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. Should the situation arise, I would not hesitate to seek representation again from Laura Gillis.

The only regret that I have is not reaching out to Laura and her team sooner. For over two years, my husband and I struggled with the school system on the lack of resources our daughter received. Because of this void, the necessary emotional support required was not met, causing our daughter’s mental health to further deteriorate. After our first meeting with Laura, we knew that we picked the best. Laura is honest, sincere, and knowledgeable. Our family is forever grateful for the support and counsel provided. She can sympathize with you and will guide you through the process every step of the way.

Excellent guidance and leadership though out the process. We feel as though our concerns were well understood and communicated in each and every meeting. The case went much quicker than expected and the outcome was what he had hoped for. We highly recommend the Law Office of Attorney Gillis and Associates.

I have not had much experience with legal professionals prior to a special education out of district placement case I pursued recently. I met Laura and within minutes, I could tell that she listened carefully to my concerns and addressed each one with a plan of action. Her office, including associate attorneys and legal staff are wonderful as well with follow-up. Laura knows exactly what to do to advance her clients' legal case to achieve prompt resolution with optimal results. I would not hesitate to consult her in the future.

She provided a quick resolution and and excellent representation. Her dedication to the case provided optimum results.
