“Michelle Siegel represented our family when we needed help securing funding for our oldest child’s education. He was diagnosed with a number of emotional conditions and mental illness, which made participation in an ordinary school setting impossible. On first meeting with Michelle she gently but firmly took us in hand and we knew right away that we had the advocate in her who would make so many of our problems surmountable. Even though she is kind and personable when you meet her, there is no mistaking that there is also an “iron fist inside the velvet glove”. We needed someone in our corner going up against the DoE and that is exactly what Michelle does. She successfully walked us step by step through the process, and calmed our anxieties when they arose. We are thankful for Michelle’s service to our family and especially to our child who is finishing high school, something that was once uncertain.”
