Our Practice Areas

Most parents would agree that just getting a child through school these days is a far cry from what it was when they went to school. It seemed so much simpler then, before school districts were gargantuan and schools were strapped for cash.

Our schools have so many problems to deal with on a daily basis that the individual child — especially one who may have some special needs — may easily fall through the cracks. While parents generally try their best on their children’s behalf, sometimes they hit an administrative brick wall and still their children’s needs are not being met.That’s where the attorneys and staff at Vanaman German LLP come in. The attorneys of Vanaman German LLP are experts who, with the excellent support of their staff, comprise the team that will help you with any problems you may have with any of these issues.

  • Special Education

    We offer the full range of special education representation, from IEP advocacy to federal court litigation. Our experience in the field means that we not only know the law, but can understand diagnoses and psychological assessments to ensure that each student is provided with an education truly tailored to meet their individual needs.

  • Regional Center

    The appeal of a Regional Center’s decision is called a “fair hearing,” and we aim to make sure that’s exactly what you get. Whether you’re contesting an eligibility determination, advocating for an increase in respite care, or fighting for the vendor that best suits your loved one, let Vanaman German LLP stand for your rights.

  • Injury and Abuse at School

    When our children are at school, the adults who are there to teach and care for them assume a duty to keep them safe.  If a child is injured due to the negligence or neglect of school personnel, or when an adult abuses a child, the physical and emotional harm to the entire family can be catastrophic. We have attorneys with extensive experience holding school districts and individuals accountable for causing injuries to children.
