Wrightslaw was created by attorney Pete Wright and Pam Wright in 1998 and has since become a well known resource in the world of special education law and advocacy. Wrightslaw provides families, educators, advocates and attorneys with practical information about Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Section 504, individualized education plans (IEPs), special education rights, evaluations, advocacy strategies, and other important courses decisions.
Pete Wright has represented children with disabilities for decades and successfully argued a landmark special education case before the Supreme Court (Florence County School District Four v. Carter) in 1993. While Wrightslaw has expanded over the years, some of their key books include:
- Wrightslaw: Special Education Law, 3rd Edition
- Wrightslaw: From Emotions to Advocacy – The Special Education Survival Guide
- Wrightslaw: All About IEPs
- Wrightslaw: All About Tests and Assessments
