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.

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.

If you want the best results in your case, you need the best attorney and David Schacthner is by far the best!

I've been a loyal client of David Schacthner for over 11 years, during very challenging times of my life. In a recent complicated case involving jurisdiction it became even more clear just how outstanding David and his team are. From communication to critical thinking and fairness in billing, David ...set the bar high. He was able analyze the facts of the case and pinpoint crucial aspects to get the results we needed. He is an articulate fighter and someone you can fully trust to have your and your children’s best interest at heart which is immeasurably valuable in these situations. When you’re in the courtroom he is the person you want by your side. He and his team are all incredibly supportive, dedicated & always available when needed. We had a huge victory, and I know the outcome would have been devastating without David’s expertise and guidance. If you want the best results in your case, you need the best attorney and David Schacthner is by far the best! I am forever grateful!

Mil father w/0 divorce experience VS ex w/ 3 prior(prepared) - contentious custody&battles-WIN! Father gets custody & good life!

David gets it right. I thought things could be friendly even after the attacks. He advocated doing the right thing &stay calm, let the system work, trust his knowledge/experience. I did. He proved he has it. I was scared. Ex weaponized my kids, said I wouldn't see them for months unless I agree to de...mands & wanted everything (even after emptying the accounts). David knew months of hardship prevents years of torment. He also knew I wouldn't wait months w/ him. Court in 2 weeks enforcing 50/50 temp. Do the hard work, be the best client you can, prioritize what is important in your life. Being a father. David held that priority & did what he is great at. Discovery, deposition, testimony, that's all David's world. He was ready & crushed it. Ex has the experience & spent YEARS preparing to take it all. No problem for David. Judge was fair. I was more than defended. I was given my life back. I, a FATHER, have custody of my kids, a home, & freedom. Be your best self & trust David! God Bless!

When they Go Low You Go Hire The Best Lawyer David Schachter

One day I received a knock on the door. I opened the door and it was the sheriff. All I could do was think who's hurt. Then the sheriff served me with modification papers for child support stating for me to remove the kids from private school. Sale the house and give him the money. And pay him for it...ems he refused to get during a divorce 7 years prior. I searched around for lawyers until I found David Schachter. He was Everything I Needed. He read the Plaintiff's order I was Served and said it was a frivolous claim. After years in court and David Hard work and Dedication he proved that the Plaintiff claim was baseless with No merit and should Never made it to court. David Won the case and we received Everything we deserved. I would recommend Mr. Schachter to anyone that Needs a Good Lawyer.
