Leving Team Prevented a Father’s Wrongful Separation from His Child

By Laura Reichel

A devoted father nearly lost everything—his child, his freedom, and his future—because of false allegations that threatened everything he held dear. Stripped of his rights and shut out of his child’s life, dad turned to attorney Jeffery Leving for help. 

The Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving, Ltd., fought for him and won, reuniting him with his child and protecting dad’s future and freedom.

Chicago based matrimonial attorney Jeffery Leving, President of the Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving Ltd. will talk about this important case victory and more on the Dads’ Rights Legal Hour, 9-10 a.m. CDT Saturday, October 4th on Power 92.3 FM.

This show segment will be available for download on the Dads’ Rights Legal Hour Spotify page on dadsrights.com. You can listen to this radio show and keep hope alive by sharing this victory and connecting on Instagram @dadsrights.

Dad, who was never married to the mother, enjoyed a generous court-ordered parenting time schedule with his child until he suddenly found his world turned upside down. Out of nowhere, he was falsely accused of punching his child in the nose and committing other acts of abuse. The child’s mother used these shocking allegations to secure an Order of Protection for herself and the child—placing dad’s liberty, future, and his relationship with his child at risk. Overnight, he was cut off from his child, unable to see or contact his own child. For too many months, this devoted dad lived in agony without his child.

Desperate, he turned to attorney Leving for help to protect his liberty and reunite with his child. Leving’s team gave dad the hope he badly needed, assuring him that they would fight to protect both him and his child. They did and they won.

The Leving legal team subpoenaed evidence, built a successful legal strategy, and exposed the falsity of the allegations. In court, they presented their case, demonstrated that no abuse had occurred, and argued that the restraining order was baseless. The judge vacated the Order of Protection against dad—restoring dad’s rights and his court-ordered parenting time. Dad was reunited with his child, free to continue being there for his child without fear of jail.

This court victory modified for publication was no ordinary court case, but rather a life-changing victory that safeguarded a father from a grave injustice. Dad was reunited with his child and his future and liberty were protected. This victory is one of many in which the Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving, Ltd., has stepped in to safeguard a father’s rights and preserve and protect a child’s relationship with their dad. Each case is different, but their mission remains the same: to fight for justice, expose the truth, and keep families together. 

Matrimonial attorney Jeffery M. Leving is the recipient of the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award from the President of the United States in recognition of 7,500 hours of service to this nation. In addition, the Illinois House of Representatives has honored Leving “for his work in safeguarding the rights of fathers and protecting the welfare of children and families in this State,” and the Illinois Senate issued a proclamation recognizing his efforts on behalf of fathers.
