Andrew K. Cuddy began practicing special education law in 2000 to meet the increasing demand for special education representation. In 2010, Michael J. Cuddy, Jr. joined his brother Andrew in the Auburn, NY, office. Then in 2012, due to growth, Adrienne Arkontaky joined the firm and together Andrew and Adrienne opened an office in White Plains, NY, formally establishing the Cuddy Law Firm. And we’ve grown into a multi-state firm with the additions of attorneys Elizabeth Angelone in 2014 for our Austin, TX, office, Andrew Pappert in 2016 for our Cleveland, OH, office, Joseph Sulpizio in 2017 for our Philadelphia, PA, office, and in 2017 for our Waxhaw, NC, office to serve all of North Carolina. Our team is able to represent families in many states in efforts to obtain appropriate educational and other services for their loved ones with disabilities.
