Dads Have Rights

For over 30 years, fathers and families, including well known professional athletes, politicians and entertainment personalities, have sought Leving’s help in seeming less hopeless battles.

Leving has assembled a team of unwavering attorneys who are committed to his mission of protecting fathers’ rights and assuring fairness in family law. Many of the firm’s attorneys have received significant awards and accolades for their work, including the President of the United States Service Award, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children Award of Merit, and the Domestic Relations Division of the Circuit Court of Cook County Award of Recognition. Our attorneys have also been honored by their peers as leaders in their field and have served as advisors on important government commissions.

While our law firm has earned our reputation fighting for fathers’ rights, we protect and defend all kinds of clients, including stepparents, grandparents and others with a legitimate interest in the wellbeing of a child, as well as executives and professionals seeking to protect their assets in divorce or paternity disputes. Our attorneys are fluent in Spanish, Polish, Ukrainian, German, or Russian and are ready to assist you.

Looking for a good attorney is like shopping for a handbag. 🤔A fast fashion Coach purse or a handmade durably crafted Hermés Birkin bag? I chose the latter. Attorney Hagler is the best. 👍If you’re looking for a lawyer who is highly competent, deeply patient, and genuinely invested in guiding families through difficult transitions, he is absolutely worth the investment. Yes, this firm’s rate is on the higher end 💰— but it’s proportional to the return on investment. If you do the long term math, it’s worth every dollar. 💵 With Attorney Hagler at The Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving, you truly get what you pay for: premium advocacy, measured judgment, and a level of professionalism that protects both your case and your peace of mind.❤️

I have thus far enjoyed the assurance and relief that Michael Ochoa and Julia Keszycki have given me during my use of Jeffery M Leving Law. Everyone there has been attentive to my goals and concerns, and having a case over an hour away from the main office has not created any hurdles for me or my son. I highly recommend reaching out to this law office to familiarize yourself with what your potential can be in your respective courtroom scenario.

Excellent services provided by my Atty's at Jeffrey Leving Ltd. I cannot thank Atty's Anthony D' Agostino and Arthur Kallow of the law offices of Jeffery Leving for saving me from an unjust situation. The State claimed I owed child support for a child who became an adult decades ago. I was facing an absolute nightmare. They suspended my driver's license and put a lien on property that I didn't even own. It was a terrible ordeal that took a massive toll on my finances and health. Anthony and Art stepped in and fought with true passion on my behalf. Thanks to their tireless efforts and willingness to go to great lengths for justice,the claimed arrearages were completely zeroed out. They literally saved me from this continuing nightmare and gave me back my life. I highly recommend D'Agostino and Kallow and the Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving to anyone who needs aggressive, brilliant representation. They are worth every penny.

I met Anthony D’Agostino today at Law Office Of Jeffery Leving for a consultation and he’s an amazing attorney passionately helping fathers obtain custody and exceptional time with their kids. Anthony is a father himself so; he understands about life situations when it comes down to father’s rights. Us real fathers in the world deserve the same as mothers we don’t get that much praise but Anthony D’Agostino is the attorney to make a difference for fathers and your voice will be heard. Kaleb W.
