Van A. Schwab

Do not hire Mr. Schwab. Only out to make money for himself. He did not layout all the details in my divorce case as far as all the items I could be asking for in court. I had to look up laws regarding property division and consult with 2 different attorneys to kind out the about the things I could be... asking for in court, which Mr. Schwab said I can't ask for. He was only looknig for ways to bill me for more money. Mr. Schwab falsely accused me of making threats only because I had said I would like the Bar Association and the Better Business Bureau to look into the case. I reached out to and e-mailed opposing counsel to settle my own case which Mr. Schwab was over paid to do and did not.

I was very pleased with the service I received from Attorney Van A. Schwab who took a difficult child support case where I owed more than $50,000.00 and he reduced my current support and set a monthly payment on the money I owe.No jail and no purge or contempt finding all within 14 days of retaining ...him. I recommend this attorney.

I was warned by other attorneys not to use him especially against the high powered attorney who my spouse was using. The educational support agreement was a model of everything that you should not do in such an agreement: no say in school selection, no cap in tuition, no limit set on expenses that ca...n be incurred (everything had "guidelines" that turned out to be meaningless to the judge. To top it off, because my agreement was written so poorly written, maintenance didn't end when it was supposed to. One attorney told me that "you don't want to live with an agreement negotiated by Van Schwab." "He doesn't seem to be on top of things." One of the biggest mistakes I ever made was remaining with him.
