Lori successfully appealed my case with DCFS. I was a victim of domestic battery and was charged with child neglect for going to the police station in a dire situation while my kids were asleep. Lori gathered all of the evidence from Cop cams, interviews, etc. and poignantly presented my case to the ...

Lori is a lawyer who is very knowledgable, professional and compassionate. We deeply appreciated her service. She effectively worked with the system to aid us. We could not have accomplished it ourselves.

Assisted cutting red tape and navigating a problem with DCFS. Retainer and invoices were very reasonable. Thank you Lori for your help!
"I have known Lori Levin for many years and am familiar with her work, having referred cases to her. Lori is the absolute "go to" lawyer for DCFS investigations & administrative hearings. I know what it is like to go up against slow-moving, bureaucratic state agencies that issue arbitrary and damaging findings of fact or conduct unfair investigations. Attorneys who do that kind of work need two things: an aggressive nature (not willing to sit back and let the case happen according to the agency's timetable) and a deep understanding of the nuances in the administrative code and regulations that the agency must follow. Without both, you'll be overwhelmed and your clients will suffer. Lori has the perfect combination of these qualities - she knows the rules backwards and forwards and will use everything at her disposal to fight for her clients. I know when I refer a case to Lori that the client is in the best hands. I strongly recommend her for all criminal defense and DCFS work."
"Lori is a hard-working and effective advocate for her clients. She gets great results."
