Honestly, some families get labeled as "problems" because they are the squeaky wheels. Obviously some people complain because they're never happy, but there are many who are just advocating for their kids. Unfortunately they often get lumped together in the same category.
Maybe past teachers have "warned" the new teacher about you so she/he doesn't feel comfortable talking to you without a witness. Hopefully he/she will see that you're a reasonable person who just wants what is best for your child, and the stigma will be dropped.
Please don't think I'm saying that you deserve this type of label, but if this is what has happened, I can understand the teacher feeling the need for someone else in the room. Like I said, hopefully he/she will see you and your family for what y'all are. Good luck!
