Berger Schatz is pleased to announce that David Levy has been reappointed to the Illinois State Bar Association’s (ISBA) Family Law Section Council.
For more than 25 years, David has served on the section council in various roles, including chair, vice chair, and secretary. As a member of the 35- 40-person council, he and other members, hand-selected by the President of the ISBA, review legislation that may affect family law as well as review and propose improvements to existing related laws in Illinois.
The mission of the 2200-member ISBA Family Law Section is:
- To encourage and support a high level of professional and ethical commitment and expertise among those who practice family law in all its substantive branches;
- To remain sensitive to the changing needs and mores of families and individual family members in our society;
- To respond, through reasoned efforts directed toward the appropriate branch of government, and bar and/or the public; and
- To accomplish understanding of the law as it exists and is applied, or change of that law, where it is needed.
David is the former managing partner of Berger Schatz and a recognized authority in all areas of family and matrimonial law. An experienced litigator, he regularly represents individuals in trials and appeals.
