Leving Fought Against False Drug Abuse Accusations and Won for Dad and Son

By Laura Reichel

A desperate dad turned to attorney Jeffery M. Leving for help after his ex accused him of using drugs during his court-ordered parenting time and petitioned the court to order dad to submit to a drug test.
Dad feared that his ex sought to imperil his parenting time and interfere with his relationship with his three-year-old son.
He turned to the Leving litigation team to protect his parenting time and his future with his son.
The Leving team fought for dad and his rights and won, successfully fighting off attempts to endanger his parenting time, force him to take a drug test, and protecting dad’s relationship with his little boy.

Attorney Jeffery M. Leving will talk about this powerful court victory on his weekly radio show, the Dads’ Rights Legal Hour, 9 a.m. – 10 a.m. CST Saturday, November 14th on Power 92.3 FM. The show will be available for download on the Dads’ Rights Legal Hour Spotify page at dadsrights.com.
For dad, these accusations threatened much more than his schedule. They threatened to endanger his relationship with his little son. Dad had even feared losing his son forever. He turned to attorney Leving for the help he needed and he got it.

The Leving team assured dad that they would fight for him and his son and litigated this important case to victory.

They immediately went to court and advocated on dad’s behalf. The Leving team fought the accusations made against him and won. The judge denied the ex’s motion, safeguarding dad’s court-ordered parenting time and saving his relationship with his son.
This court victory, modified for publication, is an example of why the Leving team’s work matters. A parenting-time dispute is never just paperwork or a simple court appearance. It’s about protecting fathers’ relationships with their children and their future with each other. For this dad, the Leving team’s work safeguarded his parenting time and, more importantly, protected his little boy from losing his father forever.
Matrimonial Attorney Jeffery M. Leving is the recipient of the 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.
