David Schnall is a great lawyer. Very knowledgeable and understanding guy. He was able to get me everything I wanted in my custody case and we won! If you need someone to fight for you and help you get custody make sure you hire David.

I contacted multiple lawyers for my muddy divorce case. I got either ghosted, some wanted to start contested divorce without trying to negotiate, another lawyer referred me to a lawyer who "knows" the judge. Others, didn't want to deal with a case that might turn into a contested divorce. When I sent him a text on his website, he responded very quickly and he said he can work on it as uncontested and if my ex wife refuses, he will turn it into contested divorce. He sent me the worksheet and I negotiated with my ex the divorce terms and we were about to finish it without getting into any issues.

I know lawyers have a bad rap in general but David is the exception rather than the rule. I’ve hired David a couple of times over the years and he has never disappointed. He fights for his clients with a passion unmatched by no other attorney that I have ever dealt with. He goes into the court room (physically and virtually) and fights for his clients like if he was representing his own family’s interest. Triple A+ lawyer. I highly recommend.

Until I met David, I used to have a bias about lawyers. Usually, they are very cold and tend to be more like a businessman.
However, David is different from any other lawyer. He is not just a good but truly a great lawyer with "a heart and passion for people in need". His timely advice and recommendation are absolutely helpful. He is really standing for people.
I think I am a really lucky guy to meet David.
Wholeheartedly I appreciate you!

We won the the case.i do really appreciate his service, cost and professionalism.He's the best am living witness.

I can’t say enough great things about David, every step of the way through a lengthy court battle, he explained every step and judgement. Not only did I win what I was seeking , David got me the win plus more! He was super friendly, never made me feel he only was out for himself. He worked with me on everything from pros and cons of my decisions to financials. Thanks to David, my son will now enjoy a more stable beautiful life! I couldn’t recommend him more highly than I do now! I couldn’t be happier with the way he fought for me and my son!

I had David fighting my custody battle and now my child support case. He was like an attack dog when calling out the B.S. and laying down the cold hard facts as they were. He didn't allow the court or the other party to trample my rights as the mother of these children for baseless accusations. I genuinely believe he will go all out for you as he has done for me. He was confident and supportive from the very beginning. He presented a respectful, kind, and caring demeanor. He was on time, he kept me informed, and we won the war!

David made the impossible, possible for my custody situation. Not only did he successfully accomplish all that I had wanted, but he exceeded all expectations. He was professional, compassionate and was able to get the job done in a timely matter. Will definitely recommend and use for future and all legal matters. Thank you for everything! You were amazing.

My Name is Darrin I'm A retired NYCPD Lieutenant I been involved in Family Court for closed to 6 years involving Child Custody of my Daughter Now 6 years Old ..I was extremely Disappointed and frustrated with How the System in particularly The Referee( Judge ) and more importantly the Lawyers I had hirer prior to Attorney David Schnall My Disappointment was how obviously bias the Referee( Judge) seem to be I had heard that Fathers do poorly in these family Courts but I thought surely that's exaggerated abd to my chagrin I discovered that indeed their is Conscious or perhaps an Unconscious bias in that it seemed what I had to say and offer was irrelevant to The Judge I became frustrated as every Attorney I hired stated things at initial hiring interview encouraging Me that they would fight vigorously so that I would retain them and then perform in totally opposite at hearing and upon confronting them after their performance at hearing They ALL would stating that family Court is really A kangaroo court, that I'm not able as A father to really be heard by A court Dominated By Female working Mothers ( as Judges/Referees) I have hired 3 Attorneys and paid consulting fees to Two other Attorney Prior to Meeting and hiring David Schnall The Prior 3 Attorneys that I hired ALL TOOK my MONEY and didn't even Bother to present my case, My position on Why I should have Custody in fact One of the Attorney whom made me all types of promises of his due diligence failed to even present one article of evidence to sway the judge to grant me custody ..NOT EVEN basic Photographs of me and My Daughter ...So when I again sort an Attorney to represent me in A hearing I didn't have high or even moderate expectation. I assume MR, David Schall would be the same as all those other Lawyers tell you everything you want to hear at the initial meeting in order for you to sign a retainer ..and then you wouldn't hear from them until right before your hearing date where they wouldn't truly know in-depth your case or your positions on issues . David Schnall was phenomenal at that first meeting. He looked sharp and more importantly he was confident and STRAIGHT FORWARD, He also interacted with me in A manner that seem really personal Like he saw me He heard me Like I said I'm a retire NYC Police officer having served 20 years On patrol I'm use to hearing BS. I can detect dishonesty ..MR David Schnall registered as truthful However I still had my doubts as I had been BURNED SERVERLY and those of you whom are UNFORTUANELY in family court understand what I'm talking about ...MR David Schnall has performed in court on MY BEHAVE and that of my Child far BEYOND my expectation and what I had thought possible at my LAST HEARING MR David Schnall Performed Brilliantly He seized control of the process( The hearing) and obtain and WON EVERY POINT AND CONDITION I DESIRE while simultaneously having ALL the petitioner's motions and modification dismissed I have been in family court over 5 years and this was THE FIRST TIME I truly was heard through representation and UPON being HEARD through MR David Schnall VOICE. The Referee for the FIRST TIME RULED COMPLETELY IN MY FAVOR!!!!!! I have NEVER written A review of Anybody or anything in All the 60 years of my Life!!! but those of you out there whom hope and Disappointment is A REALITY that you are NOT BEING HEARD in family court and that Lawyers have taken your Money and giving you NOTHING to the point where you feel ROBBED don't give up HOPE give David Schnall A call HE IS THE TRUTH...HE WILL STRONGLY INTELLIGENTLY EXPERTLY represent you and CHAMPION your cause So that YOU can be THE PARENT YOU DESIRE TO BE TO YOUR CHILD or CHILDERN Thank You David Schnall for being WHAT A LAWYER and AN ADVOCATE should be for His or Her Client

After a three year battle with my ex-wife, David was unrelenting in trying to score a victory for me and my case. Needless to say he stuck with me and the business at hand and was able to get me a favorable outcome, great job David.

I AM SO TOGETHER I AM GETTING OUT A DIVORCE FEELING BLESSED AND OVERJOYED BY THE LEVEL OF PROFESSIONALISM THE COURAGE I RECEIVED.
I MET WITH 4 DIFFERENT ATTORNEYS AND WAS SO OVERWHELMED AND SAD AND WALKED IN TO THE OFFICE OF MR SCHNALL AFTER GOOD REVIEWS AND AND NEEDED LEGAL REPRSENTATON ON THE DAY BEFORE COURT
MR SCHNALL SAID SUZETTE RELAX WE WILL COME OUT HEAD STRONG I NOT ONLY
GOT MY RESTRAINING ORDER SERVED
GOT MY SPOUSAL SUPPORT
GOT MY DIVORCE
IT HAS AS BEEN A LONG ROAD BUT HAVING AN ATTORNEY FIGHT FOR YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY IS A BLESSING
ON DAYS I WAS SO SICK AND COULD NOT MAKE IT TO COURT AND MR SCHNALL WAS THERE ON TIME AND I FELT LIKE I WAS THERE HE KEPT ME UPDATED EVERY STEP OF THE WAY.
HE DID NOT OVERCHARGE ME HE BROKE DOWN EVERY ASPECT OF THE CASE AND WHAT AND WHICH WAY IS THE LEGAL WAY..... AND THE REPERCUSSION'S OF WHAT PATHWAY THE 3 DIFFERENT CASES ARE LINKED TO EACH OTHER AND THERE WERE TIMES I WANTED TO JUST SCREAM BUT MY ATTORNEY SAID SUZETTE YOU ARE STRONG JUST STAY FOCUS YOUR HEALTH COMES FIRST. MR STRAUS AND MR SCHNALL ARE THE PERFECT TEAM THEY ARE VERY TACTICAL AND I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE BOTH.
I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL AND RECOMMEND THESE TWO ATTORNEYS FOR ANY
FAMILY, CHILD CUSTODY, CHILD SUPPORT ETC.....
GO AHEAD AND TRY THEM YOU WILL THANK ME LATER BECAUSE NOT ONLY ARE THEY QUALIFIED THEY ARE 5 MINS FROM FAMILY COURT ON JAMAICA AVENUE AND 7 MINS FROM QUEENS SUPREME COURT!!!!!!
