My firm does presentations about the education legal field to private schools, services providers, and education-adjacent companies and organizations. I also create educational videos for parents, advocates, and attorneys over at our firm YouTube page. In 2022, along with my partner, I started up Gutman Vasiliou, LLP.

As an attorney with the Cuddy Law Firm, I handled all aspects of special education litigation from initial client intake to administrative hearings to the appellate process. My duties included consulting with potential clients, building a theory of a case, and litigating cases before impartial hearing officers. Additionally, I handled many of the appeals within the office before the State Review Office and fee claims and appeals in federal court. In my capacity as team supervisor, I oversaw a team of 3-5 attorneys, law clerks, and paralegals and provided strategic input and direction for over 120 concurrent cases.
