Law Offices of Charles P. Fox - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

Charlie and Julie have won our daughter, who is severely autistic, the right to be educated. Our school district wanted to outplace her anywhere that would take her, regardless of whether her needs would be met. They were not listening or caring about our concerns as parents. Charlie and Julie have fought tirelessly for her. Their amazing talents as lawyers, as well as their compassion and care for us as clients, has been on full display. We cannot thank them enough for everything they have done and will continue to do to ensure our daughter gets the education she deserves. If you are ever in need of legal services for your child, this is the law office to contact.

We contacted the Law Offices of Charles P. Fox because we felt our daughter’s needs weren’t being met and the district was not following procedures or providing FAPE. We needed someone to help be our daughter’s voice. Charlie and went above and beyond to help us fight for our daughter. Through mediation and due process, they put everything they had in to making sure our voice was heard AND WE WON! This Christmas all I wanted was for my daughter’s needs to be heard. They gave us the best gift ever and we are forever grateful!

Having Charlie represent us was nothing short of a gift, he worked tirelessly to ensure that we were treated fairly. Honestly when he represented us I almost felt as if he were part of the family and things were just as personal for him as it was to us. He's definitely on the Christmas card list.

Charlie's expertise in representing my son and I was invaluable. Throughout the whole process he and his team were very patient and supportive. This helped make what could have been an extremely stressful mediation with the school district so much more manageable. He gave great guidance throughout, and I feel like the outcome was optimal. I would highly recommend his legal services!!

Hiring Charlie was the best decision we ever made for our family & son. Charlie was by our side every step of the way for what turned into months long of mediation, remediation, etc. with our local HS District. He has a ton of years and experience in special education law and would not back down until we got the outcome we were looking for & our son deserved. He always explained to us our rights & how the process worked in a way we could understand. He was honest, hard working, professional & reliable. He always responded in a timely matter & had our backs. I would not hesitate to hire Charlie again & recommend him highly! He believed in our son from the get go & fought hard for him. Turns out Charlie was right as our son continues to do amazingly well in HS with the IEP & placement Charlie was able to implement for him.

I am beyond thankful that we found Charlie to help us advocate and fight for our son. From the intake process to every conversation, we felt confident in his expertise in education, the district, special education law and advocacy. He was beyond professional, kind, funny and you can tell that he understands what us parents are going through on every single level. I could not recommend anyone more than him and his associate, Julie. His secretary and paralegal were very fast, efficient and courteous and we just felt comfortable with everyone at our very first interaction. We will absolutely always for the rest of our lives carry gratitude in our hearts for giving our child the inclusion, respect and equal opportunity in this world. I know when our son grows up, he will be one of the people that our son will thank for believing in him.

If your child has special needs, and needs support at school, Charlie Fox is the first person you should call.

His experience, knowledge, and sheer desire to make sure children are afforded their free and appropriate public education is second to none. As a public school teacher, I understand the IEP process and know our rights, but I needed to be my child’s mother, and not wear my teacher hat in his meetings. Charlie allowed me to do that. My husband and I were so impressed by his attention to detail in our son’s case; it was clear to us that Charlie always had his best interest in mind, and he would do what was best for him.

Hiring Charlie was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made as parents, and I would recommend his services to all families who want to ensure their children get exactly what they need at school.

From start to finish Charlie and his staff were forthright in their advice. We followed it closely and, sure enough, things went precisely the way he predicted they would! During our time together we heard from other people that had nothing but positive things to say about him as well. I fully recommend him/his office!
