expert, personalized guidance
I had an excellent experience with Mr. Schiller. He helped me navigate the nuances of a healthcare contract. His advice comes from knowledge of the law and years of experience. He makes himself completely available at any time of the day and is very friendly. He takes the time to get to know his clients so that he can tailor his recommendations to each individual. I feel empowered in signing my contract and in return, have received much respect from my future employer.

Enlightening experience
David assisted me with the sale of my dental practice. It was an amazing experience. He is extremely thorough, careful, clear, responsive and talented. While he was a strong proponent for my point of view, he always promoted compromise where needed. It is possible that he does not sleep because he always answered my emails, texts and phone calls promptly. It was a completely enjoyable and successful experience.

Efficient and Effective
David is efficient and effective. He quickly solved my issue over renting space in another doctor’s office. Throughout the process, he was easily accessible and communicated with me frequently so that I understood the process. David was able to come up with a solution to the renting problem in an expedient manner. David has also provided excellent legal guidance to my husband, who is also a physician, when he was setting up his own practice. I am grateful for David’s expertise and would highly recommend him to others.

Thorough, complete, and fair - start to finish
Gained both knowledge and comfort working with David as he provided guidance and explained reason. Professional and friendly. He’s unique in an ability to convey experience on a level to that individual and personal. Was able to conclude that my purpose was successful and complete.

Top Notch
David was referred to me by a friend and I am so glad that she did. David made my job transition seamless. David was efficient, knowledgeable and accessible. He took his time in explaining things in terms that I understood and I felt that he had me at his best interest. I now feel confident in taking the position in knowing that my job is protected because my contract was tailored to my needs. David is awesome!

David goes above and beyond
David set up my retirement plan for my dental practice over 20 years ago. He has always been very responsive to my phone calls and emails (and his plan is structured so that you may call him whenever you have questions without additional fees). He is extremely knowledgeable, professional,confident, organized, thorough and personable to boot. What I have valued most in our professional relationship is that he always goes above and beyond. He will not only dot all the i's and cross all the t's as a good lawyer should, but he listens to you and endeavors to fully understand you from your perspective before offering his counsel. (He even contacted me one time because I was not fully funding my plan- and so was concerned about my financial well being on retirement). In today's world where even professionals try to get away with doing less, this is a quality that is priceless. -Bruce

I very highly recommend Mr. Schiller. He has been the lawyer for my family for years and now for my own needs and I could not be happier. He is attentive, exceptionally bright, savvy and good at explaining legal details in a manner than is clearly understood. I trust him and feel he represents my interest well, providing invaluable insights.

Absolutely excellent, responsive service for 14 years!
David set up our company's retirement plan and has diligently overseen the tax law changes and crafted revisions necessary to keep us compliant, and also made certain the plan reflected the firm's growth over the years. Couldn't be happier.

David J Schiller, Esq.
I hired David for my retirement plan design and administration back in the mid 1980's. He did an excellent job in both areas and I as a result I recommended him to many of my clients (physicians & dentists). For approximately (3) decades he has provided wonderful services to me and my clients at very reasonable cost. David also has provided Estate Planning services to me and many of my clients. He is a terrific attorney who is a credit to his profession.

What David J Schiller has done for us
We chose David because of a recommendation from another satisfied client. David gave me advice when I wanted to start a home health care company in 1992. He also directed me in what needed to be done in order to move forward regarding a name & setting up a corporation. In 2010, when I received an unsolicited offer to sell my business, David negotiated with this company to provide me with the best offer. He worked closely with the other company to formulate a deal that satisfied all of us. He also represented me during the process of dealing with the corporate buyer & all aspects of the final sale. More recently, Mr. Schiller drew up Health Care powers of attorney, & Living Wills for my husband & me. David also drew up personal wills for both of us. David is smart, thoughtful & a fine listener. We have been completely satisfied with everything David Schiller has done for us. We would not hesitate to call upon him again.

Outstanding legal advice for health care contracts, estate planning and wills
David Schiller is a conscientious knowledgable and honest lawyer. I have had several changes in my medical practice over the past 30 years and he has given me excellent advice regarding contracts, with great attention to detail in a timely way. He has served as advisor and negotiator and his interactions are always highly professional. He also reviewed my will and has helped me to plan for retirement. He has up to date knowledge of tax and contract law and is a frequent contributor to Medical Economics. He is readily available and responsive to my questions. I have recommended him to multiple other physicians and they have all been uniformly happy with his services. I can not recommend him more highly!

Excellent attorney for my dental practice
My experience with Att. Schiller for over 20 years has been outstanding. He helped me establish my profit sharing and 401 K plans so that I got the maximum share for myself while being honest to my employees about their options. Att. Schiller is always quick to respond to any questions I have about my practice helping me make wise business decisions. I really like the yearly retainer program in which any and all necessary changes are updated to my accounts with David. I don't have to worry about changes in the law that apply to my business, Att. Schiller does that automatically and let's me know in a timely manner. He also works seamlessly with my accountant to review all contributions to the re retirement plans. I highly recommend him to all interested in excellent legal work for their business. James

Retirement planning
David provided an excellent analysis of my cash flow and former annual taxes, followed by several retirement plan options for my health care consulting business, and then helped me create the plan. He is extraordinarily responsive to telephone calls and emails, extremely diligent and detail oriented (when completing forms to open up accounts in the name of the retirement plan he created), and works seamlessly with my accountant. In addition, I have heard him provide excellent lectures to groups of physicians. He is superb in quality and a true pleasure to work with.

We Highly Recommend David Schiller
After our initial meeting with David Schiller, I chose him to represent me during the sale of my orthodontic practice.. David was recommended to me, by a national attorney without a Pennsylvania law license who specializes in selling medical practices, and knew of his superior reputation from other clients.. David is excellent at informing and recommending options about selling a medical practice, and was always available, to coordinate with our accountant or other professions during the process..His fees were fair and he made the process very easy for me. During the last ten year, he has represented us on several diverse personal issues including transferring ownership of one of our homes and writing a current will for my wife and me... He is knowledgeable with both Pennsylvania and New Jersey law and has again proved to be invaluable and fair. My wife and I HIGHLY recommend him.
