Special Education Advocacy and Children's Disability Rights

Every child is entitled to a meaningful education tailored to their unique learning needs. When school boards and public districts fail to uphold federal mandates, families face immense hurdles. Richard Ganulin, supported by his paralegal and wife Barby, who holds specialized credentials in special education, works tirelessly to enforce protections under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.

• Disability discrimination and ADA compliance: Holding educational institutions and recreational facilities accountable for denying equal access to children with autism or developmental delays.
• Protection against unlawful school restraint: Challenging inappropriate physical restraints, isolation practices, and disciplinary expulsions targeting vulnerable students.
• Due process hearings and state complaints: Representing families in formal administrative due process proceedings and appeals before Ohio state education authorities.

Workplace Discrimination and Constitutional Rights Litigation

In addition to school advocacy, Richard Ganulin handles critical matters involving workplace discrimination and broader civil rights litigation under Title VII, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and 42 U.S.C. Section 1983. Whether representing employees subjected to discriminatory termination due to disability, race, or religion, or challenging unlawful municipal practices and unconstitutional police seizures, the firm asserts client rights in federal and state courts. If you need to consult an attorney regarding illegal workplace discrimination or wrongful termination, the practice provides objective, rigorous evaluation of your legal claims.
