"We sought the assistance of an educational attorney after using facing numerous roadblocks when seeking appropriate support from the school for our autistic son. The educational attorney referred us to Dr. Govan, with a glowing recommendation. Dr. Govan immediately met with us to comprehensively review the timeline of our son's educational journey and assessed all our supporting documents. She requested additional documents from the school and discovered numerous gaps in his support services. She gave very insightful suggestions to improve his IEP. She was a knowledgeable, calm but stern presence in his IEP meetings, resulting in much improved services and support from the school. With her help, we were able to have him placed in an appropriate setting with adequate resources to meet his needs. She continues to check in with us and to share community resources suitable for him. I consider her our unicorn educational advocate who held our hands and guided us expertly through a very challenging journey to meet our son's educational needs. Dr. Govan always answers our communication promptly, explains our rights and options very clearly, and maintains professional decorum at all times. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking an educational advocate."
