Two attorneys from Sussan, Greenwald & Wesler, a leading special education law firm based in Cranbury, NJ, will make presentations at The Matheny School on Thursday, January 28, during National School Choice Week. Jayne M. Wesler, Esq., will speak on “Special Education/IEP & Due Process”. Alex M. Hilsen, Esq. will talk about “Estate Planning Special Needs Trusts and Guardianship”.
Wesler, a psychotherapist and former child study team member, recently won a landmark decision in which she convinced the court that the Summit, NJ, School District had denied a free and appropriate education in the least restrictive environment to a child diagnosed with a severe communication disorder. Hilsen has experience at Fortune 500 companies such as Merrill Lynch and Citigroup where he worked in financial services and monitored and advised clients on all avenues of investing and financial planning. He is the parent of a child with special needs.
The presentations will be given at 6 p.m. at The Matheny School, 65 Highland Ave. in Peapack. Refreshments will be served, and an informal tour of the school will be available. To RSVP, email mathenyschool@matheny.org or call (908) 234-0011, ext. 721.
