Divorce law firms' specialty: to serve man
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/palm-be...1221.story



..In a family court system that some say is tilted to favor women, attorney Kenny Leigh makes no apologies — he is in business to serve man.

Leigh, who has six offices with 13 lawyers from Boca Raton to Jacksonville, said he started gearing his practice to men about 10 years ago, when he realized that women often were given the benefit of the doubt, at men's expense, when it came to divorce settlements, alimony and child custody arrangments.

"In family law, men are not treated fairly," said Leigh, 43, who is based in Jacksonville (and is happily married with four children). He criticized the court system for reducing many fathers to being "a visitor and a paycheck."

"Anyone who practices family law knows I'm right," he asserted.

This dude is no dummy. That's a niche market LOOKING to be filled. There's an attorney here in Chicago named Jefrey M. Leving, and he was big into father's right's in Illinois and got some favorable legislation created for custodial interference.

Check out this Illinois appellate court ruling discussing some pretty horrific allegations against Leving's firm:

I don't know whether any of what his former client says is true, but I would definitely caution everyone on the forum to look into Mr. Leving before hiring him. It is extremely rare, in my experience, to see these kinds of allegations repeated in an appellate court opinion unless there is some substance to them.

That's horrific. There's no excuse for this, if true. Thanks for the heads up.
