Outstanding Child Custody/Child Support Lawyer

David Schachter and his team are outstanding! Schachter and his staff met my needs as child custody lawyer and he really cared about my case. They were easily accessible, response time was great, all issues were handled professionally and timely, and they kept me updated on everything throughout th...e whole process. Schachter was aggressive and got me the results I wanted. I would highly recommend David Schachter to anyone in need of an attorney.

Professional and Meticulous!

From the very beginning David was ready to tackle the daunting task set before him. He was very thorough with every aspect of my case. Whenever I had a question about anything, it was answered. He not only fixed my current situation but also made sure I was taken care of for the future. I will re...commend David to anyone looking for a top notch lawyer in Georgia. It was a pleasure having David take care of an extremely important life changing matter.

It always seems impossible until it's done.

After a brutal, contentious divorce, I was left with barely any visitation of my daughter and what may have been the world's worst parenting plan. My former husband made my life miserable and my daughter suffered extensively in his custody. Other attorneys I'd consulted for a modification declined ...to help me, saying "it's too complicated" or "impossible". The first time I called David's office, it was 4:55 on a Friday afternoon. I was hoping to catch his staff before they went home for the weekend or leave a voicemail to request a consultation. David answered. Spoke with me at length and told me he would help. It took over 2 years in court and it was an ugly fight but David fought for us every step of the way. Today I was awarded primary custody of our little girl. The impossible, my sweet child's happy and secure future with me, is now my reality. David didn't just win our case, he saved our family.

Single Dad Getting Custody

David was an excellent lawyer. I was a dad fighting for 50/50 joint physical and legal custody of my son. Very few people can say that they are almost 100% happy with all of the outcomes of their divorce, but I can honestly say that I am. I ended up with mostly everything that I wanted making only a ...few concessions. Is David inexpensive or cheap? No. But I knew going in that as a dad trying to get custody of his kid I'd need the best and I definitely got my money's worth. I'd highly recommend him to anyone going through a divorce, especially a sticky/messy one.

Mr. Schachter is the Best Family Law Attorney! I Took His Advice And I Got Everything.

I have needed a family law attorney more than once. Fortunately, I have used David the last 3 times I needed one. The outcomes of all 3 of the cases Mr. Schachter handled for me were superb! My most recent case, my second divorce, ended up better than I could have ever dreamed. I strongly encoura...ge anyone who needs a divorce attorney to hire Mr. Schachter. He is not the cheapest (and if you are looking for cheap then expect bad results based upon my past experiences shopping for a deal), but I believe he is the best at what he does. I needed the best, and I got him. David is attentive to detail and he knows exactly what needs to be done to obtain the best possible results. Based upon my own experience I think that others need to know the process can be frustrating and long, so be prepared. The courts are clogged with cases. The Judge takes a long time to do anything in your case. In my most recent divorce case it was 2 years too long. Patience and David's’ advice are the keys to success. At times I found the wait for a hearing date from the Court to be frustrating, but I listened to David when he reassured me and cautioned me to be patient. Strategy is important, and David knows strategy. I am so happy I listened to Mr. Schachter and did not let frustration with the process cloud my judgment. I followed his advice, and I ended up with Everything! And I do mean everything. The business, the real estate, investments and properties, the vehicles, and much more. My opportunistic husband had tried to take advantage of me. Mr. David Schachter exposed him. I know that if I had not had Mr. Schachter and if I had not followed his advice, I would have walked away with a far different result. David knows what he’s doing. Take his advice. Trust his judgment. In my case, Timing was key. Mr. Schachter’s timing was perfect, and now I can move on and enjoy the rest of my life. And I have a lot more to enjoy it with.
