Education Lawyers Who Can Help With Learning Disabilities In Florida

Parents often have a difficult time recognizing learning problems, sometimes referred to as learning disabilities, in their children. Perhaps the onset of the disorder is very gradual. Some children seem to perform well until their educational setting changes such as from grade school to junior high. In other cases, the children may have had certain characteristics, like a short attention span, for as long as parents can remember. This can make a learning problem seem as if it is just part of the child’s personality.

When you begin to have questions or concerns, it is best to test and properly diagnose the problem as quickly as possible. At Windsor Law LLC, we can provide you with the legal educational counsel you need to begin the process and move forward. Our Sarasota education law attorneys understand your situation and are prepared to help.

We also offer a program to consistently monitor your child’s needs and progress, as well as provide many supportive resources for your family.

What Are The Possible Symptoms Of Learning Disabilities?

Below are some common signs of learning disabilities in children:

• Delayed speech or reading development
• Dislike of reading and writing
• Slipping or declining grades
• Short attention span or impatience
• Difficulty with organizational skills
• Difficulty understanding and following instructions at home and school
• Forgetfulness
• Frustration with tasks
• Behavioral issues such as acting out, fighting or frequent visits to the principal’s office

Your child might also withdraw from social activities and complain that they hate school. Physical signs of a learning disability may include headaches, anxiety and stomachaches. Please note that this is not a complete list and that each person’s symptoms will be unique.
