About
Founded in 2014 by John D. Rue, the firm has since expanded to include Principal Attorney Krista Haley Rue. With a focus on fighting for the education rights of children with disabilities and their parents, Rue Law Group has achieved significant victories in cases such as D.W. v. Fair Lawn Bd. of Edu. and D.O. v. Jackson Bd. of Edu. The firm is currently litigating a class action complaint against the New Jersey Department of Education, seeking a change in the dispute resolution system and compensatory relief for families who have been injured by the Department's failure to comply with timelines. With a mission to ensure equal access to justice in the education law area, Rue Law Group works to make their legal services affordable to regular people and takes on cases without guarantee of payment, relying on anticipated prevailing party fees.
