Just make sure, whatever she does, the test ends up being valid in case DYS wants only a "valid" test done according to the directions. Not sure how IEPs/504's/accommodations fit into that. For example let's say DD gets a 504 for her ADHD/processing speed issue. Would she be able to take the WJ modified and have the scores count? Or Explore? She is completely unable to take timed tests, which is why she did so awful on the CogAT. The WISC was Ok except for the sections that were timed (although block design was Ok at a 16).
Sounds like you have had a really hard time of it! I wasn't around a year ago so didn't know. You might as well pay the cheap person and if it ends up being bogus or poorly done, you are not out much money. A special ed teacher at the school gave DS the WJ and I was skeptical that he would be competent but it was fine.
