The knowledgeable and dedicated attorneys in Price, Meese, Shulman & D’Arminio, P.C.’s Education Law Group and Family Law practices are committed to helping families reach constructive, long-term resolutions to their problems. The attorneys recognize that each client’s problems are unique and need individualized solutions and guidance so a client may obtain the best outcome possible.

“Our clients are facing some of the most difficult challenges of their lives. We’re proud of our hands-on approach and ability to craft solutions that help them move forward,” says Aaron Cohen, who has devoted his practice to family law. He was recognized as a Super Lawyers Rising Star from 2018-2021.

Karen Edler, founder of the Education Law Group, and Jackie Esposito passionately advocate for parents and students’ rights through all levels of education. They handle special and general education, discipline, HIB, guardianship and special needs planning matters. “A major issue facing our clients is the loss of education at all levels and the right to receive compensatory education resulting from the pandemic,” Edler says.

“We recognize the hurdles so many families are facing currently and, as a group, we continue to work to alleviate the huge burden placed on parents by obtaining an appropriate education for their children,” Esposito adds.

“Karen understood our case and all it’s complexities. She was always accessible and provided comfort and hope. She was able to handle the difficult opposing attorney. She got us through a horrible time in our lives. Got us what we needed for our son. And we are always grateful.” – J.D., Mahwah

“Karen always gave us her full attention. She was very knowledgable about the circumstances we were dealing with and had great advice.” – P.H., Glen Rock

“Karen always responds to our family’s concerns immediately. She listens to us thoughtfully and carefully. She not only executes a legal strategy to resolve our conflicts with our school district, she also provides us with valuable information and resources that will help us to help our children. She cares about more than just winning a legal argument. She wants every child that she represents to reach their highest potential in his/her education and in life. Our children each have their own relationship with Karen and she understands both their impediments and their potential. They have gone from being floundering, overlooked students to high achieving, successful learners due to her tenacious work ethic and detailed understanding of their special needs and how they should be addressed. One of my children says she wants to become a Special Education attorney some day to follow in her footsteps. As a result of Karen’s hard work on our family’s behalf, that is now something she may be able to achieve.” -M.C., Tenafly
