When you’re facing a crisis involving your children, your safety, or your future, you need a lawyer who understands the weight of what you’re going through. At the Law Office of Bradley R. Tengler, P.C., we take a proactive, solutions-driven approach to every case. We listen closely, explain your options clearly, and build a strategy centered on your goals.
While we handle a range of matters including divorce, family law, and personal injury, a significant part of our practice focuses on helping people navigate complex, high-stress family situations. Led by attorney Brad Tengler, our team approaches every case from a 360-degree perspective — legal, practical, and personal — and provides guidance you can use both inside and outside the courtroom.
I have practiced law for 16 years, with nearly all of that time devoted to family law. Clients come to me in some of the most difficult moments of their lives — when a spouse is abusive, a child is being alienated, DCFS is involved, a parent has taken the children out of state, or communication has spiraled into damaging texts and conflict. Others seek help preparing for a GAL investigation, pursuing guardianship of a grandchild, or balancing parenting time with financial realities.
I help clients understand their rights, strengthen their position, and take practical steps that make a real difference. Family cases aren’t just legal issues — they’re personal, emotional, and often urgent — and I work with clients to navigate each challenge with clarity and direction.
Originally from rural Pennsylvania, I have lived in northern Illinois for more than 30 years. Before becoming a lawyer, I taught high-school English and Journalism, which shaped my communication-focused approach to client advocacy. I later worked in personal injury and workers’ compensation, gaining experience as a diligent and assertive plaintiff’s attorney.
I graduated cum laude from Northern Illinois University College of Law, served on Law Review, and excelled in Moot Court competitions. I am admitted to the Illinois Bar and the Federal General Bar of the Northern District of Illinois and am a member of the Winnebago County, Illinois State, and Illinois Trial Lawyers Associations. I also regularly write and publish articles in the areas of law I practice.
My commitment is simple: to guide clients through their toughest moments with clear advice, strong advocacy, and solutions that protect their children, their stability, and their future.
