Your Child's IEP Isn't Being Followed
An IEP is a legally binding document. If the school isn't doing what it promises, your child is being denied the education they deserve.
What's Happening
Your child has an Individualized Education Program (IEP) that spells out the services, accommodations, and supports the school agreed to provide. But the school isn't following through. Maybe the speech therapy sessions aren't happening, the aide listed in the IEP was never assigned, or the classroom accommodations are being ignored. This isn't just a broken promise — it's a violation of federal law.
Your Child's Rights
- ✓ Under IDEA, the school district must implement the IEP as written. Every service, accommodation, and goal in the IEP is a legally enforceable commitment — not a suggestion.
- ✓ If the school wants to change any part of the IEP, it must provide Prior Written Notice (PWN) explaining the change, why it's being made, and what data supports it. Parents must be part of that decision.
- ✓ When a school fails to deliver IEP services, your child may be entitled to compensatory education — additional services to make up for what was missed.
- ✓ You have the right to request an IEP meeting at any time to address implementation concerns. The school must respond to your request within a reasonable time.
- ✓ IDEA's procedural safeguards give you the right to file a state complaint or request a due process hearing if the school refuses to comply with the IEP.
How LegalAction Helps
IEP Compliance Review
We review your child's IEP against what the school is actually providing to document every gap and violation.
Formal Demand Letters
We put the school district on written notice that the IEP is not being followed and demand immediate corrective action.
Compensatory Services Claims
We calculate the services your child missed and pursue compensatory education to make up for lost time.
Due Process Representation
If the district won't correct course, we file for due process and represent your family at the hearing — at no cost to you.
Don't Wait — Your Child's Education Is at Stake
Every day the IEP goes unfollowed, your child falls further behind. The law gives you powerful tools to hold the school accountable — let us help you use them.
