Where can I learn more about special education law? Is this a good career to pursue?

I have been a special education teacher in an inner city environment for several years now. I feel I have developed a respect and understanding for people with disabilities because of the nature of my work. I would like to take this interest one level further to still work with special education issues- maybe as a lawyer if I were to go to law school?

I already have a background in special education through my work and a graduate program I completed last year. Special education is replete with many legal issues (especially the IEP). Are careers in special education legal advocacy in high demand and do you think this would be an interesting area to pursue a career?

Thanks for the advice.
