Raffaele & Associates, LLC

Katie M. and staff, including Educational Advocate Nicky M., were a blessing to our daughter and family throughout the entire advocacy experience. They were consistently kind, supportive, stable, hopeful, honest, trustworthy, and professional. Their intelligence, communication, and patience held us together during the complicated district transfer resulting from a positive and purposeful move. Our daughter was always important to them and they also included us as if we were part of the team. She remains at a school that is truly helping her thrive, and so we are forever grateful for the careful guidance all along the way. Everyone won in the end. Thank you. Amen. Parents Delaware County

Raffaele & Associates provided such a positive experience for our family. The firm represented us in a legal matter and additionally assisted with my son’s IEP. Since the day that Raffaele & Associates became involved, the school district has taken all of our requests seriously. Their attention to detail and knowledge has provided my son with a fantastic school experience to date. In regards to our legal matter, there are no words to describe the Raffaele & Associates attorney, Adrianna. She is kind, compassionate, competent, hardworking, quick to respond to emails, and an overall amazing person. We are so thankful for Raffaele & Associates!

We had an amazing experience with Michael Raffaele and Melanie Young! We could’ve never navigated the school special education system without them. They helped us with private school placement for our daughter who is now thriving in her new specialized school setting. They helped us through all the IEP meetings and with looking into private school placement options. We are very grateful our daughter is now at a place where she is happy and can succeed. Highly recommend them!

Michael Raffaele helped us with an inappropriate truancy accusation filed by our school. Very quickly, he was able to get the school district to rescind the order.

Spoke from the perspective of a local mental health provider : Have had nothing but great experiences in collaborating with Maria Vetter over shared students. She's a staunch advocate for her students, while maintaining warm and professional attitude with the districts/organizations she works with. Highly Recommend.
