Legal Services

The Lauriston Centre is dedicated to empowering families of children with autism by providing the knowledge, tools, and support needed to navigate complex health, educational, and legal systems.

We offer guidance in advocating for better support from councils and other organisations, helping families access the services their children need.

Our expertise includes providing 'expert witness' support—specialist professionals who offer independent assessments and evidence in legal or tribunal settings. This can be invaluable for families seeking additional resources, tailored education plans, or fair treatment.

Lorene Amet, founder of the Lauriston Centre, works closely with families to prepare compelling cases, ensuring they have the best chance of securing the support their child deserves.
