Larissa B. Johnson, Esq. founded AdLauream, LLC in January 2017 with the goal of helping children in Connecticut achieve their greatest potential in Special Education. She knows the importance of having an education advocate on your side to help you plan and prepare strategies and negotiate for your child.  These same strategies can be used to help with school disciplinary matters, including suspensions and expulsions, as well as bullying and cyberbullying in schools in Connecticut.. Attorney Johnson graduated from the University of Connecticut School of Law in 2008, where she participated in a clinic in mediation with placement at the Family Division in New Haven Superior Court. Attorney Johnson founded her own real estate law firm, which she ran from 2009 to 2014. She then worked for her local Board of Education for five years, where she developed a passion for the educational needs of children. In 2017, she joined the Justice Legal Center Incubator Program at the Center for Family Justice in Bridgeport, Connecticut where she launched AdLauream, LLC.  Attorney Johnson earned a certificate in Special Education Advocacy from the Institute for Special Education Advocacy at William and Mary Law School in 2017 and is a member of the Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates.. Attorney Johnson is dedicated to advocating for children and helping parents and schools implement the services and supports for each child's unique needs so that they can pursue further education, careers, and live independent lives.

My practice is dedicated exclusively to the representation of parents and students in special education disputes throughout Connecticut.  My office is located in Manchester, and serves as a satellite for our firm's Hartford area clients, with our primary office located in Mystic.. If you're reading this, you likely have a child with a disability who receives a 504 plan or IEP through your local school district, or know someone who does.  You may not have been aware, at least until recently, that there are attorneys, as well as non-attorney educational advocates, who help parents navigate the educational programming and placement process.. Some of the legal issues that arise under IDEA and Section 504 are easy to resolve yourself -- but many are not.  Or sometimes, what starts out as an easy, straightforward modification of an IEP goal, addition of a related service, request for an increase in instructional time, or discussion of a private special education school placement turns into a huge, time-consuming, emotional, complicated, and frankly soul-crushing mess.. I am a former board of education attorney who went into business for myself in 2013, making the switch to fighting for parents who are trying to secure a free appropriate public education, known as FAPE, for their children with special needs.  In 2014 I was hired by Andy Feinstein, and together we are working toward securing brighter futures for children with disabilities.  We handle PPT meetings, mediations, due process hearings, student discipline matters, and anything and everything having to do with the world of education law as it relates directly to students and their families.. Parents:  you are, first and foremost, your child's best advocate.  But sometimes you need support in your advocacy efforts -- someone to be your loudspeaker when you feel that you have been silenced, or worse, when everyone is hearing you but no one is listening.  We are looking forward to meeting with you and discussing how we can help, or where you can go for help if you're not yet ready for an attorney.
