Great attorney

Mr. Daniel Bachert successfully represented me since 2015 in my case. I was all ready divorced and my ex-husband wanted to modify the child support. Even though the child support was modified, Dan was able to prove that my ex-husband was not only failing to pay child support, but the alimony and th...e court-ordered school expenses for over 10 years were also in arrears. My ex-husband was also found in contempt for failure to provide documents relating to the children. Mr. Dan Bachert provided excellent representation and service. He always gave me excellent legal advice. I will recommend him to anyone that has to go through any divorce proceedings.

Mr. Bachert is very professional, through & knowledgeable.

Mr. Bachert is very professional, through & knowledgeable. I was recommended to go to Dan in the middle of my divorce as the lawyer I had was horrible and put me in a bad spot. I wish I would have found Dan from the start and I would have had a totally different outcome. He is knowledgeable and looks... at all angles. He provided me with advice throughout and was always quick to respond. I have already recommended him to my closest friends. I absolutely give him my full recommendation.

You'll be happy you called him!

Daniel Bachert was a huge help to me with post divorce issues. Even during the consultation, Dan was able to provide me with useful information on my case which a previous lawyer had failed to inform me of. Dan then went on to represent me in court and the outcome was favorable. I wouldn't have bee...n able to navigate through the law system without him. Divorce and post divorce issues can be unpleasant however Dan made this experience more manageable. My issues were settled quickly and without hassle. Dan did a fantastic job and you'll be happy you called him!

Dan is an excellent attorney

As a member of a court watchdog, I've seen many family attorneys at work in the Palm Beach area. I've been fortunate with my family attorney selection (I've only engaged Mark Frumkes, then later Dan Bachert, both excellent attorneys), however I've witnessed much incompetent and downright unethical b...ehavior by other local lawyers. The biggest complaint people mired in family court have is that their attorney never files anything on time. A slightly more understated complaint is that their attorneys are unreachable. Neither of these issues occur with Dan. Accustomed to lethargic response times from courts and attorneys, I was surprised when Dan filed all motions within 24 hours of discussion. More importantly he and his staff were diligent about keeping me informed case status. Because judges and judicial assistants rarely take citizens seriously enough to answer questions about their cases, having an attorney who can get answers and move things along is important. I also cannot say enough about Dan's knowledge of the law. Too many times, attorneys will give erroneous advice, or suggest that your position is correct, when it isn't. Dan accurately predicted the course and outcome of my case. Having been through a perilous divorce, you appreciate (or bemoan the absence of) certain qualities of attorneys. In my case, Dan was virtually perfect. I hope to never need a family attorney again, but if I do, Dan is the first I will call.
