Seth David Schraier

Seth is a fantastic lawyer. He is very knowledgeable in family court matters and was able to educate me on my rights as a father. He was there for me in a time of great distressed. I remembered coming to him regarding a family court issue that I was seriously stressing and he was able to keep me calm... and provide me with piece of mind being there every step of the way. He is available over the phone and is EXCELLENT at responding to emails. To this day, even after settling my family court issues. I can still reach out to him regarding legal matters and he is more than happy to help me any way possible. I would recommend anyone to him with issues regarding family court as his knowledge and years of experience not only show in his work, but when he is representing you. Thank you, Seth for all that you've helped me with.

I would definitely recommend Seth. I first hired him for my custody case. I was in a frenzy because I thought I was going to lose my child. He calmed my nerves and explained everything to me in a way that I can understand (not lawyer language). He returned emails and phone calls immediately with ...answers to my questions. Once that case was resolved, I asked him to take on my child support case. That was done in a quick, smooth manner. I would absolutely hire him again and again and again. Thanks Seth!

Looking for a good lawyer was one of the most overwhelming task I've ever expericed, but once I spoke to Seth Schraier I knew he was the lawer I wanted to hire. He adviced me as if he was already representing me. He was friendly, patient, knowledgable and obove all honest. I called him for advice ...a few times before officially hiring him and every time he was just as nice and willing to give me advice as the time before. It did not matter the time of day, he always returned all my calls, emails and even text messages within minutes. He was not only knowledgable on custody issues but about child support as well. All my questions were answered with such confidence that I had no doubt he knew his information. Being in the middle of a custody battle my stress level was high and I was emotionally all over the place but knowing that seth was on my side and always available when I needed advice gave me and still gives me a sense of assurance and peace. I trust him Mr. Schraier and I know he only has my best interest in mind.

I hired Seth for a custody and support. Seth is fairly new in his law practice and offers very attractive and economic price due to his low overhead. Seth works out of his home and also alone. Although its a minor critique, his home office was a bit unprofessional and definitely untidy. If I wor...ked out of my home, I would ensure it was at least clean and professional. Anyhow, I was impressed with Seth's calm and firm demeanor. He was also willing to meet on weekends, which is helpful for those who work. However, as my case progressed there were multiple red flags. He failed to show up for a hearing, which left me in a complete panic. Luckily the judge adjourned it for another date. In addition he often came late and/or unprepared. Bc of his high volume/low cost business model, he often scheduled multiple hearings in one day and I felt he barely knew any case specifics and always arrived rushed/breathless from another hearing. Further his written documents were lacking to say the least, and I found out later often not filed. For example, he failed to request financial discovery for my support proceedings so I was stuck months on end with a low support figure. Moreover, my ex was abusive so I wanted full custody. I felt Seth was unwilling to go to bat for me during the custody proceedings and pressured me to settle for "joint custody with final say" suggesting that there was no difference between that and full custody. When you are dealing with an abusive spouse, the concept of signing up joint custody is signing up for two decades of continued abuse and power struggles, even though its a pseudo-joint custody situation. I insisted on full custody due to history of abuse and Seth argued with me that there is no difference. Seth was not interested in understanding the detrimental mental/emotional impact this would have had on my life or more importantly on my child's well being. I also felt Seth was so wrapped up in not "rocking the boat" with the judges and staying on their good side on a personal level, that he failed advocate on my behalf as my attorney. Moreover, Seth is bias toward father's rights in my opinion-he blew off a lot of my concerns as frivolous and was not willing to hear out my concerns regarding the past abuse. I started to lose sleep over the fear of my future and more importantly my child's future. Finally I bit the bullet and ended up hiring a law firm and legal team. I paid for it-But there was a huge improvement and well worth it. The legal documents filed on my behalf were a complete 180 improvement- I had no clue legal proceedings could be so much more organized and better. My new attorneys went to bat for me -they knew every single story every single concern and detail in ways I had wished Seth would have cared to know. I ended up with full custody and 2.5 times the child support Seth suggested I settle for. I'd say if you are dealing with a straightforward, healthy ex who acts in the best interest of your children, then Seth would be a great attorney for you. But if you have a high conflict ex - particularly with pathological personality disorder, don't waste your time and hire a firm that will advocate for you and your children.

His work ethic is horrible. Doesn’t care at all about his client . I’ve spent over 50 million $ on lawyers in my lifetime Seth by far is the worst . I don’t know why he refused. To do ANY work . Ten months without a return call or text . Have Seth is like having shoes without a sole and walking on... hot sand .
