Many people are surprised when they discover how many legal projects accompany the diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. These projects are important on many levels because in the States, they help to ensure health care for your child and also financial support for your family.
Attorney Leona Filis, founder of Filis Law Firm, knows these struggles well. As an experienced special needs attorney, mother of a child on the spectrum and aunt of a child with Duchenne, Leona offers knowledge, compassion and advocacy to our Duchenne community.
