Data from HERA, LEP and the Tevatron, as well as from low energy experiments are used to constrain the Yukawa couplings for scalar and vector leptoquarks in the Buchmuller-Ruckl-Wyler effective model. In the limit of very high leptoquark masses constraints on the coupling to the mass ratio l/M are derived using the contact-interaction approximation. For finite masses the coupling limits are studied as a function of the leptoquark mass. Some leptoquark models are found to describe the existing experimental data much better than the Standard Model. Increase in the global probability observed for models including S_1 or ~V_o leptoquark production/exchange corresponds to more than a 3 sigma effect. Assuming that a real leptoquark signal is observed, calculated is an allowed region in the l-M plane. The leptoquark signal is mostly resulting from the new data on the atomic parity violation in cesium, but is also supported by recent LEP2 measurements, unitarity violation in the CKM matrix and HERA high-Q^2 results.
