I have a particular case and unfortunately they were not able to help me, but Andrea who answered the phone, took her time asked some questions, and found someone who could take my case. Thanks for your help!

I hired David Schachter to represent me in my divorce action 4 years into my case. I wish I had known to go to him from the start. This divorce case was long and a bit more complicated because I had to work outside of the country. In the 4 years of the case before I hired David my prior attorney accomplished nothing. I was afraid that husbands and fathers could never get justice. I was mistaken. You just need the best attorney, and in my opinion that is David. Mr. Schachter knows his stuff. He is an excellent strategist. He is detailed and prepared for every scenario. Watching him in court was impressive to say the least. Everyone, including the Judge, were clear that Mr. Schachter had done a tremendous job. The Court Clerk even asked him for a card for a family member that she wanted to hire him after seeing his courtroom performance. I even remarked to David during a break in the proceedings that he was doing such an excellent job destroying my wife’s case and her attorney that I actually felt bad for my wife-for a minute. My advice: You want Mr. Schachter on your side and you definitely do not want to risk the chance that he could represent your spouse. I am a very satisfied client. Run to hire him and you will not regret it. Oh, and as for husbands and fathers and how they fare in a divorce: Mr. Schachter secured me joint physical custody of my daughter, I have no further financial obligation to my ex, I got to keep most of my retirement, and I got the house that had been temporarily awarded to my ex for the first few years of the divorce before David took over. I even get to keep all of the equity that I paid into the house throughout this case and my ex gets none of it, which I understand is quite unusual. I was more than pleased with the result. They say nobody wins in a divorce. Usually that may be true and I do feel bad that my daughter had to experience this, but I am positive I won this case with Mr. Schachter’s superb representation. I hope I never need to hire a family law attorney again, but if I do need one I know that I will hire David.

David Schachter is the best at what he does. I had been divorced for over five years, and out of that marriage I had a son. The mother of my son would keep me away from my son at will, and due to being active duty Military I felt that would not be able change my ability to have a relationship with my son. I had always been told that its hard to get custody of a child as a father not to include being a father in the Military. David restored my faith in possibilities and he represented me as if he was fighting for his own children. David never promised a outcome, but he promised he would fight on my behalf and he did exactly that. He never allowed emotions from my part dilute the facts; which proved to be the best as he owned the court room as he presented my case. If at anytime I had questions David and his team were right there to answer the questions I needed answered, his team called, texted, and email me keeping me informed making sure I was ready for court. David cared about what was best for my child and not just having another client. I could not have picked anyone better to represent me in my custody case. David didn't have any hidden fees, nor did he give false promises. I would recommend David and his team to anyone, because when you feel like there is no way David will fight for your best interest and the interest of the child. He is truly the Custody King.

David is a top-rate Savannah attorney. He knows the law, he knows all the issues that may arise, and he knows how to win cases. You couldn't be in better hands in that regard. I cannot imagine working with as many people as he does, case after case, and how hard it must be to empathize with each individual client. He's also extremely busy, so you may not always get a quick response to emails and phone calls. However, he absolutely crushed it winning my case. It was a long, hard divorce. My ex was manipulative and abusive, and David not only won me primary custody, but also the right to move to another state where I have family and support. In fact, we won everything on every account. You really won't find anyone better.

Wise counsel. David Schachter advised me in my own divorce and issues that have arisen ever since. His guidance has been valuable and dead-on. I highly recommend Mr. Schacheers and The Schachter Law Firm, LLC without hesitation.

I had a wonderful experience with this law firm. Mr. Schachter and his staff treated me kindly and professionally. Divorce is difficult and complicated, but Mr. Schachter was clear, patient, efficient, and thorough. He made sure I understood each step during the process. I would definitely recommend him and his team!

There is no other way to put this: Mr. David Schachter is simply the best divorce attorney around. Two years into my divorce case it became obvious that I needed a new attorney. By the end of the case, my divorce actually lasted almost 5 years because of my ridiculous, narcissistic husband, his antics, and my husband’s second attorney who took ludicrous positions and did not follow the law. Mr. Schachter took care of their games, he took them to task in court, and he got me a spectacular result that exceeded my expectations. David focuses on strategy quite a bit. I know understand why patience is so necessary in this process. Like others, I wanted everything to be over right away. If that had happened in my case, I would now be a pauper. I admit that my husband wore me down to the point where I had a complete breakdown towards the end of the case. I also lost patience too many times during the process. David picked me up when I needed it most, and he set me straight whenever I began to fall apart. People need to understand that courts can take a long time. David frequently tried to explain to me that it took a long time for my husband and I to create this mess, and that I had to understand that it can take awhile to fix problems that took so long to create. Quick results are rarely good results. If you are going through a contested divorce and you lack patience or an attorney that you believe in and can reassure you when you lose hope, you might as well throw in the towel. At one point my husband wore me down so much and convinced me that we had nothing left. I believed him and almost agreed to walk away with nothing. I literally lost my bearings and needed medical intervention. I was at my lowest point. I did not trust anyone a that point, not even my loved ones and I even questioned whether David was on my side. My husband had somehow played mind games with me and manipulated me into thinking that he was my only friend. He tried to take advantage of me when I was at my lowest point, and he was the one that got me so low. Most attorneys would have abandoned me at that point. Mr. Schachter did not. David is patient when necessary, and he was reassuring when I needed it most. David was supposed to be out of town with his family when I completely fell apart. Instead of leaving town when he was supposed to, Mr. Schachter made a house call with others that truly cared about me. He got me the help I needed to continue, picked me up when I was down, and gave me the strength to continue when I needed it most. By the time we finally got to court after 5 years, this process had cost me a fortune and I did not know whether I would walk away with anything. As soon as Mr. Schachter got started in Court when the trial began all of my concerns washed away. David had worked hard and he knows what he is doing. He was spectacular in court. It was impressive to watch him utilize his skills. My best friend who came to the trial for support and is herself divorced told David that she wished she had him when she was going through her own divorce. She watched the whole thing and she said he was amazing. Mr. Schachter exposed my husband for the moron he is, and he outdid my husband’s attorney in every way. The result: I walked away with more than I ever hoped to get or believed possible. I was awarded alimony for many years (though my husband tried to show that he had nothing), a big monetary interest in my husband’s business (even though my husband claimed it was worth nothing while fudging the books, which David fully exposed), and I received so much more. I got a fair and just result though I knew that that rarely occurs. I went from being convinced that I would be living in a cardboard box on the street to someone who is now confident with a secure future. I was impressed by David’s attention to detail. He is not cheap, BUT HE IS WORTH IT. Hire him and you won’t regret it. Schachter for everything!!!!
