Brightside Law Group

"Seth and Brightside Law Group really know what they are doing! We had an unusual situation, but Seth took it head on. He worked with the school district, not against them, to help us get what we needed. His collaborative, not combatitive, approach won the day. We couldn't be happier with the way things turned out."

"So grateful for Seth Schwartz and Brightside Law Group. We first were introduced to Seth in a free webinar that they were part of discussing education rights and laws. We never thought they would be needed. Little did we know just a year later we would be calling them when our son's educational world was being turned upside down by an awful school district. We loved the teachers and were fighting to stay. We explained everything to Seth via a virtual meeting, who listened patiently to our rant. He was so professional and detailed. He went over the law and legal courses of action that could be taken, but also gave input on the various school districts and their positives and negatives from his experience. He then kindly let us know we needed to 'pull off the Band-Aid'. That was exactly the nudge we needed along with the input to make an educated decision for our son. We made the jump to a new district that has been nothing but wonderful from the administration to the therapists to work with. Our son is thriving and growing and we would have never been here if not for the direction from Seth. Brightside is for sure our go-to if ever needed in the future and the one I recommend to other families when the need arises."

"Our family cannot say enough positive things about the team at Brightside Law Group! Seth is incredible. Not only does he have excellent communication (taking the time to explain any areas of confusion, listening to your concerns, and ensuring that you understand every step of the process) but he is also very thorough. It's evident that he researches and takes the time to look into different areas before responding to emails or creating a course of action, which, in important and emotional scenarios, means the world. Seth has also built such an outstanding team. We had the privilege of working directly with Ashok, a standout attorney. We appreciate how diligent, communicative, and incredibly passionate Ashok is about what he does. Our family truly has been blessed to work with Brightside and would recommend them to anyone!"

"My wife and I went to Brightside seeking advice for our son. He's on the spectrum, intensely impacted on many levels. We were not sure how school was working for him, and not sure what to change, or how to change. We went to Seth at Brightside to find out what actions we could take. Seth was understanding, calm, considerate, and helped us to feel empowered. This law group informed us, supported us, and gave us new hope for the future. There are so many facts, rules, red tape. As a parent , I'm so grateful to have found Brightside."

"Seth Schwartz and Brightside Law Group is an indispensable resource for families with children with special needs. While Seth possesses tremendous legal expertise on disability issues, he is unmatched in his ability to negotiate settlements and solve disputes without giving up any of the child's rights or damaging the relationship with the other party. Seth also excels in client contact. I've worked with several great special education attorneys in the past - but no one (not even an attorney friend) was as good as Seth in keeping me updated on the case and being available (and patient) for my questions. I highly recommend him for straight-forward cases, complex cases, clients with a lot of anxiety about retaining an attorney, and clients that are hoping to get a positive result and still maintain a good working relationship with their school district."
