Susan Sacchetta

Ms. Sacchetta was very thorough and professional. She insisted on deposing certain individuals connected to the case which turned out to be crucial to our case. I highly recommend Ms. Sacchetta.

Posted by Michael | August 09, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Dedicated, hardworking and reliable lawyer!

Susan has been representing me for the past two years with my on-going custody dispute. I am the father with primary custody since my daughter was born. The dispute started messy since my ex filed in the wrong county in 2014 and we also already had an order in place from 2011 that she had not exercis...ed in a while. There were a lot of circumstances that made my case unique. Despite this, Susan handled it and accomplished exactly what my family needed in writing and court ordered. Visits started slow and supervised and worked their way from there as my ex and my daughter developed a relationship again. Several restrictions were put in place to protect my daughter and those restrictions I did not know could be fought for and thanks to Susan they were implemented in the new order. All went well for me legally until i decided to relocate with my daughter. I wanted to relocate form Pa to Fla due a new job opportunity and to be closer to family in Florida. We had to make the relocation happen quickly due to the time frame for me to take the new job and to set my daughter up in her new school. Susan assisted us with the process and sped it up it tremendously. My ex's lawyer was very stubborn and difficult despite everyone being in agreement. If it wasn't for Susan's dedication and persistence with staying on top of things and not backing down, my daughter would not have started school on time. The drafting of the final order came about after at least 15-20 emails back and forth due to the hassle the other attorney created. Susan always responded promptly and cc'd me on every email so I was always informed on the developments. My ex didn't even know what was going on at most times (due to her lawyer's lack of communication with her). So it felt good that I always was informed and asked if I would like to proceed based on her recommendation or not. in conclusion my family relocated without issue and I didn't even have to appear in court since we met agreement outside of it. Susan forwarded new order immediately to judge made sure it was signed off on and put in place so that the court date that was set was cancelled. I was very happy with the outcome both times and will continue to use her services if anything arises in the future.

Great Lawyer

Susan has helped me in many ways. She help me understand the system with child support, spousal support and what my rights are and what I am entitled too. I have already recommended her to a few people that I know because I have been so happy with her services.

Client Review

Susan represented me in my divorce in 2002. She was very understanding and responsivem, and not once did I feel she wasted a minute of my time or a dime of my money. My ex-husband's lawyer tended to be unresponsive and she kept the process moving while giving me the option of hastening the process ...myself to save some money. She was very thorough in her work and kept me informed of everything that was happening in a very timely, business-like matter. I have recommended her several times and would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
