I handle a full range of family law issues, from divorce issues like child custody, child support and paternity, and property division to prenuptial agreements and post-divorce modifications. Every case is handled with extreme care geared toward: Clear communication through every stage of the divorce process, prompt, direct responses from the divorce attorney who represents you, and efficient, cost-effective legal strategies that achieve favorable outcomes.
Experience that’s current and relevant
With trial skills honed prosecuting sex offenders for the Brooklyn District Attorney’s office, I understand the inner workings of the justice system. I know how prosecutors build a case and can counter their courtroom strategies to deliver the best possible outcome for your particular circumstances. As a certified mediator, I have a thorough understanding of negotiating tactics. My firm but collegial manner guides family law and matrimonial matters to successful resolutions.
Strong but approachable
At the Law Office of Seth D. Schraier, I know the difference between strength and bombast. I aggressively assert and defend your rights in a thoroughly professional manner that leaves the door open to mutually beneficial, creative solutions.
