Disability Discrimination & Retaliation
Federal and state laws protect students with disabilities from being excluded, overlooked, or unfairly treated in educational settings. Bo Johnson Law represents students who have been denied access to services or opportunities because of their disability — whether through the failure to provide accommodations, improper discipline, or other forms of unequal treatment.
Services include:
-
Representation in cases involving denial of services or accommodations due to disability
-
Legal support when schools fail to implement IEPs or 504 plans as required
-
Advocacy for students disciplined for behavior related to a disability
-
Protection against discriminatory school policies or practices
-
Representation for individuals facing retaliation after advocating for students
-
Review of correspondence, policies, and records to identify patterns of discrimination
-
Support with formal complaints under ADA and Section 504
Disability discrimination can take many forms, including subtle patterns of exclusion or outright denials of legally required support. These cases are handled with care, precision, and a focus on the long-term well-being of both the student and the family. Licensed in Alabama and Washington, Bo Johnson Law is committed to upholding the rights of individuals with disabilities and those who advocate for them.
These matters are approached with both legal strategy and compassion, recognizing the emotional and educational toll discrimination can take on a child and their family.
