I called David Schachter's office after reading phenomenal reviews about his service, I was skeptical but I was in a dire situation over losing custody of my child so I hoped the reviews were accurate. They couldn't have been more true! A little background; without my knowledge, my ex had an emergenc...y court hearing, misled the judge to believe very false accusations against me to obtain temporary full custody. By the time I was served papers and told I know longer could have my child, I had 10 days to find a lawyer to defend me at a temporary hearing and help get my child back. To find a lawyer to take on your case in 10 days is an almost impossible feat, David had a full schedule and suggested several lawyers for me to contact. He called me every evening for 3 days to talk about my case and check to see if I found a lawyer. He ended up taking my case and he worked late and on the weekend to prepare for it. He was thorough, he answered all my questions, he prepared me for everything, and most of all he restored a sense of security in me that had been taken away. At my hearing he was incredible, he proved that my ex was lying and had unjustly abused the legal system to gain custody. I was awarded full custody for a month straight and then return to joint until a later trial. Before we could even go to mediation, my ex fired his lawyer, agreed to give me full custody and tripled my child support. I can honestly say that none of this would have happened without the dedication, hard work, and compassion of David Schachter. This man will fight for you; he sincerely puts his heart into his work and the results are evident.

I hired David to help me with a tricky situation. I do not live in Georgia and my ex was doing everything in his power to avoid following the law. David took my case and WON! I never had to worry about anything and his team was amazing! Lisa is a godsend really. She was ALWAYS available to answer my ...questions and she made sure that all of the emails and documents were in David's hands ASAP. David will fight for you. He is honest and forthcoming, not qualities you find in other lawyers. He had surgery and STILL worked on my case! I can't say enough about him, he really has earned these awesome reviews. If you want a lawyer that is going to work FOR you, hire David.

Every once in awhile, you find a lawyer whose phones don't immediately switch off at 4:59. From the start of my case to the finish, David has been there to answer any questions I have had and made himself available when necessary, not by the time of day. He advised me of every law I would need to k...now pertaining to my case, and kept me well informed of court dates and other steps along the way. His assistant is well mannered, well informed, and a joy to speak with. You just feel safer with him on your side. I would recommend him to anyone who wants an attorney that cares

In serveral instances David stood his ground and stated why specific claims were not reasonable. He additionally played offense well. There was a counterclaim which was stimulated from Davids innovation. During mediation, I would have like to see a more aggressive stance on what we would compromi...se. I did not know the mediator as well as he, and thus, a lesser aggressive approach could have been a systematic move on his behalf. He did prove several systemic moves to be of benefit during the case. Not only was David a great reasource, but his paralegal was super helpful at keeping me informed with information and answering questions.
