Rebecca A. Young

Rebecca Young’s calming, personable manner puts clients at ease throughout all stages of the legal process and makes them feel like their problem is on its way to being solved.

Rebecca A. Young is a partner with KingSpry’s Education and Adoption Law Practice Groups and Chair of the Special Education Law Practice Group.

Attorney Young represents school entities regarding special education, truancy, discipline, enrollment, and Right To Know matters. She litigates cases before state trial and appellate courts as well as administrative agencies including the Office of Open Records, the Office for Dispute Resolution and the Pennsylvania Department of Education. She is a frequent speaker and author on legal matters related to her practice.

Admitted to practice before the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern and Middle Districts of Pennsylvania, and the Supreme Court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Attorney Young is a member of the Lehigh, Monroe and Northampton County Bar Associations. She is also an active member of the Children’s Rights Committee and the Legal Services for Exceptional Children Committee of the Pennsylvania Bar Association.

Actively engaged with community agencies that address the needs of children and families, Attorney Young currently serves as a board member for Diakon Child, Family and Community Ministries. She previously served as a Board member for Community Services for Children, and as a Trustee for Project Child of the Lehigh Valley and the Monroe County Bar Foundation. She also volunteers for The Kindness Project. 

Attorney Young’s adoption practice includes public (foster care), private, kinship, and step-parent adoptions in Monroe, Lehigh, Northampton, Carbon and Bucks counties. She reviews and addresses stipend issues, adoption subsidy agreements, permanent legal custodianship agreements, and post-adoption contact agreements, and formalizes traditional and non-traditional custodial arrangements.

She earned her Juris Doctorate at Villanova University School of Law, an M.A. in Clinical Psychology at MCP-Hahnemann University, her M.Ed. in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, and her undergraduate degree at University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.
