How can we help you?
Educational Law
The special educational needs system is often overwhelming, confusing, and difficult to navigate – but you don’t have to face it alone. At Amicus Law, we provide clear, practical legal advice and tailored support at every stage, whether you need representation in a dispute, guidance on legal processes, or a review of key documents.
Beyond SEN, we also assist with school admissions, complaints, transport issues, and a wide range of education law matters.
If you are:
- Struggling to secure an Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP) assessment for your child or need to appeal a Local Authority decision through the SEN Tribunal
- Concerned that your child’s EHCP does not adequately cover their needs
- Facing challenges with your child’s school not providing the required support or failing to implement their EHCP
- Worried that your child is experiencing discrimination due to their additional needs
- Finding it difficult to secure a school place or access appropriate alternative provision
We can help!
Whatever the challenge, we’re here to support you. Contact us today.
INTRODUCING rebecca AND education law TO AMICUS LAW
At Amicus Law, we recognise parents’ and carers’ challenges when navigating the complex world of Special Educational Needs (SEN) and Education Law. That’s why we’re proud to introduce Rebecca Roberts, a highly experienced professional who brings both personal and professional expertise to our team.
As a former Headteacher, SENCO, and Inclusion Manager—and as a parent of a child with significant special needs—Rebecca offers a deep understanding of the system and the legal support families need.
Supporting You Through the Challenges of Education Law
We understand how difficult it is for parents and carers to get the support they need for their children with special educational needs and disabilities. Parents and carers are left to ‘fight’ a broken system, which is confusing and chaotic. We can help you to navigate this system, providing you with legal advice and tailored support throughout the entire process, whether this is contentious or simply advice about the process or a review of key documentation.
We also offer guidance and support with a wide range of education law matters, for example, school admissions, school complaints and school transport issues. Whatever is needed, we’ve got you covered!
We take great pleasure in offering a free initial consultation.
