Testimonials

Gina Decrescenzo

In 3 words, Peace Of Mind! Tired of being bullied at your child's CSE Meeting? Feeling like you have to cave in and do what District recommends? We'll worry no more. After the words I spoke, "I want this meeting tabled!" The next day I met with Gina and the rest is history. Gina was able to give my child all the services she needs to be successful and more independent. Very reasonable and fair fee.

Best education attorney

Gina has specialized knowledge of the inner workings of special education and she is extremely savvy about skipping unnecessary delay tactics and moving right to the core of necessary actions. Collecting the documents was a lot of work, but her guidance and support made it manageable. Notably, she was considerate about using her time efficiently to keep costs as low as possible.

Professionalism, Integrity, and Results

I am so glad I made the call to Ms. DeCrecenzo and her firm. We had been through the wringer with our child's school and were concerned for his future. From consultation through the entire process, Ms. DeCrecenzo and her firm have been amazing.

The Lawyer You Want On Your Side

Gina DeCrescenzo came highly recommended to us and the reason why became quickly apparent. Gina and her outstanding team are simply the BEST out there. Not only is Gina's expertise in Special Education Law unparalleled, she is equally determined and compassionate. Thanks to Gina, our son was finally able to receive the education and services he is entitled to after a long and arduous journey. Our family is forever grateful!
