Leving Team Stops Mom from Running Off with Dad’s Kids

By Laura Reichel

A desperate father turned to Attorney Jeffery M. Leving for help fearing he would lose his children forever.

The children were living with their dad, however, everything suddenly changed. It was reported that the mother was going to take the children and disappear forever, leaving dad with no way to ever see them again and remain part of their lives.

He was terrified and knew he needed help fast. The Leving team dropped everything and fought for him, and won.

Attorney Jeffery M. Leving will talk about this important court victory on his weekly radio show, the Dads’ Rights Legal Hour, 9–10 a.m. CDT Saturday, July 18th on Power 92.3 FM.

The show will be available for download on the Dads’ Rights Legal Hour Spotify page at dadsrights.com. Tune in and share this victory by leaving a Google review in support of Leving’s fight for fathers and children everywhere.

The Leving litigation team assured dad that he had come to the right place. They gave dad the hope he so desperately needed and litigated the case to victory.

From the beginning, the stakes were high. Despite having a court ordered parenting time schedule in place, the Leving team feared a real and immediate risk existed that the children could be severed from dad’s life forever. They acted quickly to bring the matter before the court to prevent any attempt to take the boys from dad and their home in Illinois.

The fight wasn’t easy but the Leving team refused to give up. They prepared and presented a powerful and compelling case demonstrating that the children’s stability, safety, and well-being were best protected in their dad’s care and not in losing him. Dad was awarded sole decision-making authority and exclusive parenting time of both children. The mother was awarded no parenting time and is prohibited by the court from removing the children from Illinois or she will face jail time. The Leving team won.

This was a powerful court victory modified for publication. The Leving team protected dad’s rights and secured the stability these two boys so desperately needed. If dad had not come to Leving when he did, he may have lost his sons forever.

This Saturday is Nelson Mandela International Day, a powerful reminder that the fight for justice, equality, and human dignity is far from over. Nelson Mandela’s legacy calls on all of us to stand firm in the face of injustice and to continue pushing for a better future. The Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving Ltd honors that legacy every day as they advocate for fathers, protect children, and fight for stronger families everywhere both in and out of the courtroom.

Matrimonial Attorney Jeffery M. Leving is the recipient of the U.S. Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award from the President of the United States in recognition of his 7,500 hours of service to this great nation. Leving co-authored the foundational Illinois joint custody law and has dedicated his career to safeguarding children and reuniting them with their fathers.
