Kasia Malkinska Naugle is a partner at A. Traub & Associates, and an accomplished litigator focusing her practice in the areas of Family Law, which include dissolution of marriage, paternity, child support, visitation, property division, post-dissolution matters, as well as matters in involving Domestic Violence and Orders of Protection. She joined the firm in 2022, bringing with her over a decade of experience.
Kasia's legal career began as an Assistant State's Attorney with the Office of the DuPage County State's Attorney. Throughout her 5 years with the State's Attorneys Office, Kasia tried over 200 bench and jury trials, involving general misdemeanors, DUIs, Domestic Battery and Violation of Orders of Protection. After being promoted to the Felony Division, Kasia prosecuted complex Abuse and Neglect cases involving DCFS, and Juvenile Delinquency cases. Notably, Kasia was part of the team working alongside the State's Attorney, Joseph E. Birkett, in the highly publicized prosecution of Brian Dugan, a convicted serial killer and rapist.
Kasia has earned a reputation with her clients and within the legal community for her diligent work ethic and as a skilled negotiator, routinely settling the majority of her complex cases. However, her extensive litigation experience and strong courtroom presence, permit her to assertively and zealously advocate for her clients in the courtroom when necessary. Kasia's diverse experience has afforded her the opportunity to provide an in-depth analysis for each client's case, which has produced favorable outcomes for her clients.
As a qualified Guardian ad Litem – and a mother herself - Kasia has the insight on how conflict within the family unit impacts children which enables her to effectively advocate for their best interests.
