Smart, Trustworthy & Solid Legal Advice
I worked with Nathaniel on two separate matters from my 2013 divorce on the recommendation of a lawyer friend. Nathaniel is extremely knowledgeable about Michigan law and the local family courts. Nathaniel reviewed my divorce judgment in order to expand my parenting time and provided me with solid ...
Thank you for these kind words. When you came to me for advice, you were discouraged. We thoroughly discussed your situation and options, and we made a solid plan. Then, you followed through on the plan we made, and it worked beautifully. Now, you have a lot more time with your child than you thought possible. And you're getting a lot more child support, too! I'm elated for you.

Thorough, Bold, & Concise
Mr. Kaleefey & his staff were great! Always quick to respond, frank, courteous, and thorough. We achieved the results I wanted in a child custody matter. Highly recommend!
Mike, thank you so much for your endorsement. You came to me after your son's mother obtained a PPO against you under false pretenses. We aggressively objected to the PPO, and the Court dismissed the PPO. With that crisis resolved, we negotiated a permanent resolution to underling custody, parenting time, and child support concerns of yours. Thank you for your cooperation throughout this ordeal. I am extremely happy with the results, and I'm glad you are, too.

Forthright and knowledgable
I met Nathaniel to discuss my situation, and I was very impressed. He was straightforward and bold, telling me not necessarily what I wanted to hear but what I needed to hear. He offered perspectives that a couple other lawyers I've consulted did not, which really helped me to clarify for myself how ...
Laura, I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for meeting with me and discussing your family difficulties. We discussed a lot of options, including divorce and separate maintenance. For your situation, waiting is right, and I'm glad we are not forcing anything. I will always be available to answer your questions. I wish you the best. Nathaniel

Great attorney with AMAZING communication!
I have utilized Nathaniel on multiple cases. I was thrilled with not only his ability to communicate effectively with "the other side", but also his dedication. I consider Nathaniel my trump card. You don't want to have to use him, but when you do, you KNOW you will win! Thanks Nathaniel!

"Nathaniel is an aggressive attorney who is highly responsive and trustworthy because he keeps his word."
"I have collaborated very closely with Nathaniel on several matters. He, and his firm's, expertise and work ethic impressed me enough that I now send friends/family/clients to him on Family Law needs. Highly recommended."
"As opposing counsel, I would highly recommend the services of Mr. Kaleefey. He advocated zealously and effectively for his client while maintain a spirit of professionalism to Court and counsel."
"I assisted and advised Mr. Kaleefey in an FAA employment discrimination claim. Mr. Kaleefey proved himself both a competent and tough minded litigator, willing to push the advantage where it existed, and to admit to his client's legal challenges where they were found as well. I have known Mr. Kaleefey for a number of years and have come to respect his competency and professionalism such that I refer potential clients to him from time to time that lie outside my practice area without hesitation."
"I have known Nathaniel since we were interns with the Wayne State University Free Legal Aid Clinic, and I have become reacquainted with his work since coming back to west Michigan. I have been fortunate to work together with Nathaniel on several criminal matters, and he is a source of knowledge in family law matters. Nathaniel possesses a rare mix of qualities that make him an excellent and trustworthy attorney. He is an aggressive and confident litigator driven by high ethical standards, superior intellect, and excellent organizational skills. I endorse Nathaniel not only for family law but also for criminal and employment law. Anyone faced with legal issues looking for a straight-shooting legal fighter should call him today."
