Georgianna was born in Cuba and immigrated to the US at the age of 10. &nbsp;&nbsp;She has been practicing law for 22 years, initially in the area of criminal defense until the birth of her son Brandon, who was born with a congenital brain disorder, and her personal journey with him ultimately led to the founding of her special education law practice in 2009. &nbsp;She experienced first-hand, the difficulty of navigating the special education system and the ongoing struggle of securing appropriate placement and services. &nbsp;Her journey with Brandon who is almost 18 (and whose services have been provided by Mcrory Ped services since he was 6 months old!) inspired her special education career path determined to help as many families traversing similarly daunting, scary and frustrating roads. &nbsp;&nbsp;Ms. Kelman developed a passion for fundraising and charity work. &nbsp;An active participant in the disabilities non-profit world, she has served a combined 15 years in the Southern California Autism Speaks and Inclusion Matters by Shane’s Inspiration Boards of Directors, chairing each organizations’ annual signature galas. &nbsp;Georgianna has appeared as an expert guest on various national networks from CNN to Univision as well local news networks. &nbsp;A leading attorney in her field, her reputation as a passionate fighter for her clients precedes her. <a href="http://www.losangelesspecialedattorney.com/">http://www.losangelesspecialedattorney.com/</a></p>
