Posted by anonymous | January 15, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

He was disbarred in 2020

He handled my divorce case, and at first things were good, but then he delegated mi case to a junior lawyer who acted more like he was working for my ex. Now, I see Mr. Kaplan was disbarred in 2020. No further comments.

Posted by Thomas | March 07, 2014 | Child Custody

Custody to the Father

Against overwhelming odds, Donald Kaplan was able win the contested custody case for my daughter. It was pactically unprecedented for a father to get custody of a preschool daughter. The entire case was based on best interests of the child and there were no allegations of unfitness. Mr. Kaplan built ...a solid case and won after a three day trial. The trial record withstood a rigorous appeal. This case made really BIG law in Illinois. It was a victory for fathers everywhere.
