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!

David Schachter is a brilliant attorney and I highly recommend him

I had talked with two other local family lawyers prior to talking with David Schachter but after meeting him for the first time and discussing my case, I immediately knew that I was in good hands. David Schachter truly is in a class of his own. I appreciated his immense knowledge of the law, his exte...nsive experience and his honesty. He thoroughly explained what the outcome of my divorce could be, he knew the best way to approach it and that's exactly what he did for me. Mr. Schachter has always been very kind and patient with me. I always had a lot of questions during this process but he took the time to answer all of my questions and always made me feel supported. He even called me on evenings or weekends as needed. Thanks to his finesse and strategy, he was able to find a way to settle my case as quickly as possible without needing to go to court and I am very satisfied with the outcome and grateful for Mr. Schachter's help and dedication. David is a brilliant, honest and passionate attorney who helped me obtain the results I was hoping for. He always remembers details, he quickly notices inaccuracies in the other party's documents and he is dedicated to his clients. David and his staff have always been very courteous and professional in person and on the phone. Phone calls and emails have always been returned promptly, which I appreciated during this stressful time. A divorce is never pleasant but if you are going through one, do yourself a favor and hire Mr. Schachter, you won't be disappointed.

Willing to fight, and he wins.

I found myself in a situation where I needed an attorney to help my children and I, in the summer of 2020. After researching several local attorneys, I hired David Schacter as my representation in a custody modification case. I must admit I was a bit apprehensive about all the five star reviews, ...but after meeting with him, he just seemed like the right attorney for the job. My case encompassed more than a few complexities, and as a father fighting for his children in the state of Georgia, it seemed like a hopeless mission, due to my prior experiences within the system. Mr. Schacter was prepared and ready to fight from day one. He immediately won an ex-parte order and pulled my children out of a bad situation. The case continued for another year and a half, and for another year and a half, I watched as Mr. Schacter successfully continued to fight for my children and I. Beyond his legal knowledge and court room skills, you could tell that he genuinely cared about our well being and best interests. Mr Schacter delivered on results, in a way that no other attorney was able to do. As someone who was a little apprehensive about all the five star reviews at the beginning, I get it now. He’s worth every penny, and every 5 star review. If you need someone to fight for you or your children, don’t hesitate. Mr. Schacter will help you get your desired outcome and you will not want to see him representing the other side.

The best lawyer I have ever worked with

I had a very urgent situation that required an emergency protection order. I looked online and read all the amazing reviews and spoke with some friends here in Savannah that couldn't recommend David enough. I was absolutely adamant I needed David for my situation. I phoned David's office and David im...mediately made time for me despite his busy schedule and it being his day off/ work from home day. I was worried I would be a nervous wreck but David was so kind and caring and instantly put me at ease. After hearing my situation he immediately began drafting a protective order and spent the following three hours with me getting it ready for court. He got me in front of a judge the very next morning despite courts being at limited operations due to Covid 19. In front of the judge he was so clear and knew all the facts of my case and he of course got my life, house, dogs and possessions back in one morning. I cannot emphasize enough how much David helped me change my life in a matter of a week and get my two fur babies back from my ex. I have recommended him to a number of friends and colleagues. He is simply the best. Thank you David from the bottom of my heart. You got my life back together and helped me start my next chapter.
