David Tollner has assisted us over the past 8 years as we have untangled many issues with two different school districts in San Mateo County. He is flexible, open minded, professional, efficient and direct while respecting the values and opinions of all parties involved. Highly recommend him if you are dealing with a contentious situation.

Amanda was also very helpful when David wasn’t around. Sometimes God provide us angels to guide us in our most painful time of need and I truly believe David was that angel. We have been struggling for the past 3 years following the recommendations of the school district. We needed external help where our daughter could be in a structured environment where trained and compassionate individuals were there to help her 24/7. David is a very skilled Special Education attorney but what impressed me most was his compassion, understanding, kindness and patience. He was very responsive at all times and guided us on this stressful journey. When we met him for the first time, he patiently explained the strategy, how the system works and what needed to happen to go forward. I felt comfortable to call or email him anytime and he would respond very quickly to calm our fears or answer any questions we have. If you need someone who can truly help you when you feel most helpless and vulnerable, please give him a call. I am certain he can help you as he did us. God Bless David Tollner!

If you are tired of being pushed around by a district and your kid is suffering, David’s your guy. I could have said this in a more eloquent and less abrupt fashion, we have been through so much with SJUSD and were relieved that we were able to come to a satisfactory ending. Thanks again David!

David Tollner has helped us tremendously in the past couple of years to get services from school district for our Autistic daughter!!! He is very knowledgeable, professional and efficient. He is very compassionate in defending families Rights.I highly recommend him to anyone who has a hard time dealing with school district to get services for their child.

As a single mom who was lost with what to do for my son and his educational needs, David made everything very clear.
