Protecting children
and their families.

JUSTICE BEGINS HERE

“We are lawyers fighting for people, pursuing justice, and making communities better throughout the entire state of California.”

“We are lawyers fighting for people, pursuing justice, and making communities better throughout the entire state of California.”

Our goal is to ensure that your child gets an appropriate education.

Snyder & Shaw is dedicated to representing children and their families in special education matters ranging from IEP meetings to Federal Court Appeals.  We fight so special education children can receive the appropriate supports and services they are entitled to.  We believe in the importance of a good public education for all children regardless of their disability. 

Your child and family deserve the best lawyers.

We are experts in navigating the complex and confusing process of special education.  We can help make sense of the IEP process by helping interpret test results, identifying areas of need, developing accurate present levels of performance, developing measurable goals, and identifying appropriate supports and services. 

We are committed to providing affordable legal services to our families.

All initial consultations are at no cost to the family.  We hand pick only a small amount of cases each year.  At Snyder & Shaw we only take cases we believe we can win.  Due process can be stressful and draining on a family.  It is our job to alleviate that stress by ensuring we have prepared a case for success.

We are experts at due process.

We understand what it takes to file a successful due process complaint and win.  We have a great record winning at due process.  Though we always hope to resolve a case without the need for due process, we are always prepared to go to hearing and know exactly what it takes to win.
