Family Law

Nationally Known Family Law Attorneys Based In Chicago

Few matters are more personal or more complex than disputes involving families and children and the lasting impact on their lives. A divorce or non-marital breakup affects every facet of your life, and your children are at the center of so much of what you do and why you do it. Because family law conflicts tend to be intense and intertwined, it is important to work with legal counsel who can cut through to the core issues and take a stand while also being sensitive to the dynamics of the situation.

As Seen On:

As a law firm devoted to the practice of family law, the Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving℠, Ltd., provides a full array of domestic relations services to families in need. We have built a national reputation for our ability to effectively resolve highly complex family law issues, including parental kidnapping and international custody disputes, such as the Elian Gonzalez case in which our founder helped reunite the minor child refugee with his Cuban father. Yet we are also able to assist with less complex matters that are every bit as important to you, such as uncontested divorce and child support.

“While family law is an arena where negotiation is almost always preferable to warfare, both approaches require the same degree of preparation and an identical level of motivation.”
— Jeffery M. Leving®, in Fathers’ Rights

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.
