Excellent Child Custody Attorney - Highly Recommend

David helped my family navigate an extraordinarily complicated child custody matter with creativity, intelligence, and an open-minded approach. When other attorneys declined the case, saying it was too difficult to pursue, David said yes. He and his partner, Brett, are an exceptional team with extens...ive knowledge and experience in sensitive family law matters. I highly recommend David and am deeply grateful for all he accomplished on behalf of our family.

Highly recommended Family Lawyer for Custody Cases

I consulted with David and he was willing to represent me in such a manner that I was awarded majority custody. As a single father and an active duty solider in Georgia, this is very unusual. With my preparation and documentation to support my case, David was able to present and articulate how inequ...itable the situation was. While doing what is considered "best interest for the child", David meticulously captured the highlights of the situation each time we went to court and continued to show the Judge the implications in which the parenting situation was highly conflicted and unjust. His closing argument was very perspicacious, direct and compelling to the point that it encapsulated the entire process that unfolded throughout the hearings. If you are in need of an attorney that knows how to represent an individual and show the court a custody situation that seems unbalanced or in order to prevent it from happening, David can get the job done. I highly recommend him to represent anyone that is experiencing a similar situation. He was worth every penny spent and could not have had a better outcome to be able to continue to build and cultivate my relationship with my child.

Absolute best Divorce/Custody law firm you could hire

From my consultation to the final hearing, David's entire team made me feel comfortable and at ease. They are professional and very, very knowledgeable in answering every question or concern that I had. No matter what was presented by the other team David always had an answer or was already ahead of ...what was going on. David was able to get me joint, physical custody of my daughter when everyone said that it was not going to happen. I could not imagine going through such a tough time without having the absolute best lawyer that I could have hired on my side. David and his team were a true blessing for me, and his law firm will always have a client for life.

David vs Goliath...say no more

I hired David Schachter after firing another firm and couldn't be happier. David's ability to pick up my case and quickly get up to speed with the facts are a testament to his ability and professionalism. He was able to navigate through the opposing parties lies and build an incredible case with a s...trong team that was second to none. It was poetic to watch him dismantle witnesses on the stand. He is truly masterful and marches to the beat of his own drum. Don't get caught on the opposing side of this mastermind. You've been warned.

A Precise, Professional, Compassionate Advocate

I retained David Schachter in September of 2020 when I fired my former attorney after witnessing his inability to provide even adequate representation during court proceeding and allowing the opposing side to drag the divorce out for almost 5 years. David is a dedicated father himself so he understan...ds the importance of a child needing their father in their life. The opposing counsel was attempting to alienate me from my daughter permanently citing issues from my past. With the precision of a surgeon and the swiftness of a shark, David began to dismantle their fallacious arguments with irrefutable evidence of the truth. He has an uncanny understanding of family law that allows him to implement practical strategies for predictable results. Because of Mr Schachter's courtroom acumen, I'm finally back in my daughter's life since 2021. Words are inadequate to describe how grateful I am to David for fighting for my rights as a father achieving what would've been impossible with any other attorney. If you're facing the horrible reality of a divorce, in the Savannah area,there is no other attorney who even comes close.
