"Working with Julie Resendez has been an absolute game changer in our IEP journey. As a parent navigating the complex and often overwhelming world of special education, I cannot overstate how instrumental Julie has been in helping me advocate for my son. Her knowledge, compassion, and unwavering commitment have given me not just tools—but hope.
Julie helped me understand my son’s rights, prepare for every meeting with clarity and confidence, and ensured that my voice—and most importantly, his needs—were truly heard. She brings both heart and expertise to every conversation, and her ability to translate complicated processes into understandable, empowering steps is nothing short of remarkable.
Thanks to her guidance, we’ve been able to secure meaningful supports that are helping my son thrive. Julie doesn’t just advocate—she uplifts, equips, and stands beside you every step of the way. I’m endlessly grateful for her presence on our team and would recommend her to any family seeking thoughtful, strategic, and compassionate educational advocacy."

"Julie Resendez is an exceptional educational advocate with extensive knowledge of the special education system. She has been an invaluable asset to both my children and me throughout our IEP meetings. Julie understands the legal rights my children have and knows the accommodations they need to succeed in school.
Having someone with Julie's experience navigating the intricacies of the special education system has been crucial for us. She strikes a balance of being kind yet firm with the IEP team and consistently addresses my concerns. As a parent, I often didn’t know what to request, but Julie always offers great suggestions.
She has helped me navigate a challenging school environment that did not initially accommodate my child's needs, and we ultimately found a resolution. I am extremely grateful for Julie Resendez's support, and I will continue to seek her assistance for any future IEP meetings."

"I have been working with Julie for a year and it has completely changed my son's IEP and general schooling situation, for the better. It is difficult as a parent to know the laws and possibilities that are available to a student and that is her specialty.
With Julie we have made a lot of progress in a very short time. She attends his IEP meetings, fields phone calls and texts from me, and is available when I need her with questions or support.
She is a valuable asset to us and I cannot say enough good things about her.
Julie has been a game changer.
10/10 recommend"

"Working with Julie has been an absolute game-changer for our family. As parents brand new to the IEP process, we felt completely overwhelmed and out of our depth until Julie stepped in. She guided us through every step with clarity, compassion, and unmatched expertise. Her knowledge of education law and district policy is nothing short of extraordinary, and she empowered us to advocate effectively for our child. Despite facing significant resistance, we successfully secured the IEP our child needed—all thanks to Julie’s leadership and support during our IEP meetings. We would never attend an IEP meeting without her! We’re endlessly grateful for everything Julie has done for our family."

"We are so grateful to have enlisted Julie Resendez as our family's advocate for almost two years to date. We have had long-standing challenges with the school district about our child's IEP. She brings a wealth of knowledge and unique experiences, having served in education at many levels for over thirty years, from teaching to administration. With these expertise, she brings a collaborative spirit while strongly advocating for our child. We can attest that she takes every measure to work with the school team, such that when the district fails to meet the student and the family in the same way, it is that much more apparent.
Julie has proven to be instrumental during IEP meetings, she has helped to communicate on our behalf, she reviews documents and offers suggestions, and has performed a school observation of our child. She is professional, responsive, and supportive, making every effort to make herself available when possible. She is kind yet firm, empathetic yet outspoken, articulate, strategic, and wise. Without doubt, she has become incredibly invested in our child's education and future.
We wish that we had found her much sooner and would highly recommend her as an advocate!"
