About Caroline
Narrative
Caroline A. Zuk is an accomplished special education attorney with over 25 years of experience in the fields of special education and the law. Her practice is dedicated to legal issues regarding the education of disabled students in California's public schools.
Ms. Zuk is uniquely qualified to help clients navigate the complex set of laws that govern a pupil's special education. She has conducted academic and psychoeducational assessments, written IEPs, designed intervention programs, analyzed hundreds of assessment reports and IEPs, trained parents and educators, and evaluated hundreds of cases regarding compliance with special education law. She developed and copyrighted a template entitled School Psychologists' Assessment Report, which incorporates legal and psychoeducational components for special education assessments.
Ms. Zuk started her educational career in British Columbia as a special education teacher. While continuing her teaching career in the United States, she earned a school psychology credential and was selected as the Outstanding Graduate, College of Education, California State University Long Beach. After earning her school psychology credential, she worked as a Diagnostic Educational Specialist at the California Department of Education's Diagnostic Center, and attended Loyola Law School's evening program in Los Angeles. While there, she served as an Extern for the Western Law Centerfor Disability Rights. In 1998, Ms. Zuk graduated from law school in the top 5% of her class. Following law school, she worked as an associate in large and small firms before starting her own practice in 2003.
Her first-hand experience working within and on behalf of public schools provides her clients with a deep understanding of the inner workings of the IEP process. Ms. Zuk believes that no case is too big or small to receive caring, competent, intelligent, and thoughtful representation.
