Rachel helped me during the sale of my small business. I asked for a very short timeframe for completion and she quickly drew up all of the necessary paperwork to have it closed by the date I had requested. She was very quick in responding to my emails and answering all of my questions along the way. I could not have been happier

Any lawyer that opens the door wearing a Michael Jackson t-shirt is my kind of lawyer. Rachel is honest, kind, and thorough. She generously wrote me a referral at no charge for first consultation and offered options and sage advice for my protection. Her office is inside Villa Place and has a peaceful vibe - top off your consult with queso & margaritas around the corner. Let the record show - that is a win win.

As first time small business owners, we were in dire need of someone who knew the ins and outs of creating an LLC, business licenses, trademark filing, beer permits and liquor licenses and navigating the necessary steps through city codes and council requirements. We were lucky enough to be recommended the Schaffer Law Firm and we never looked back. They held our hand through it all, answered my six thousand questions about what I didn't know I didn't know and kept us right on top of every date we had to hit and license we had to file. We are open and operating and we could not, literally, have done it, without the cheerful guidance, patience and knowledge of Rachel and Kelcy.

I have been working with Schaffer Law for about a year, having been referred to her by my personal banker at Bank of Nashville. I have worked with large law firms most of my career but did not want to pay those kinds of prices for my personal work. Rachel met me near my home instead of my having to come all the way into town: she listened and took notes, and in the end gave me exactly what I needed. I recently had to use her again because of problems with someone else's attorney, and she got results quickly in a calm, professional manner. I have her on retainer for all my personal legal needs.

I have worked with Rachel for several years on a variety of legal matters. She has always been professional and very capable. She spends time to make legal matters understandable for those of us not in the legal world. I would highly recommend her!

My wife was dropping off my daughter at school, and our son was in the car as well, when a truck rear ends her vehicle. All three were injured to some extent, with my daughter being the worse via a concussion. I actually work for a law firm; however, we do not practice injury law. Therefore, I contacted another lawyer from the area that knew the best lawyers in the Nashville area. David Weissman was his top pick, without question. I had him give me his top three picks because I didn't think our case would be worth the time of his top choice. But David nonetheless took our case. We met with him at his office within a week of me contacting him. I knew instantly why David's reference came with such high regard. He was extremely personable and a noteworthy professional. I could tell he knew ALL aspects of his business. I had a lot of questions and he had the answers. I knew very quickly David Weissman was the real deal, I also knew he really didn't have to take our case. The fact that he did was all the more impressive. And throughout the case, he kept us apprised of all proceedings and always responded to any questions immediately. The other parties insurance must have sensed they were dealing with a true litigator because they did not try to pick a fight with him. Smart move on there part. Also, because our daughter was a minor, the law required us to go before a judge as part of the process, and David was in charge through the whole thing; in fact, the other attorney pretty much just deferred everything to him. If me or my family ever need legal help in the future, David will be the first person I call. I highly recommend David Weissman as well as his excellent staff.

Ashley was amazing. She was very caring and she kept me updated throughout the case. She worked very hard to get me the max settlement. I was very pleased with the outcome and I will definitely recommend her to others. Job well done!!!! Thanks

The free introductory session was super helpful! Kelcy was very knowledgeable and I'm looking forward to working with Schaffer Law Firm as our business grows.

David Weissman helped me get full disability after 10 orthopedic surgeries in 2 years. He was patient, compassionate, and smart -- he alone caught an error in a date on my application that would have prevented me from prevailing like I should. HIGHLY recommended!

I've been a practicing attorney for 30 years and worked with lots of other lawyers. David is one of the best. I referred a friend to him with a very difficult case about six months ago. He just resolved it for an amount well in excess of anything I thought possible. Great job David!

Schaffer Law Firm PLLC has been instrumental in launching the Nashville Citizens' Orchestra. In February 2016, the firm worked pro bono to obtain our 501c3 (non-profit) status. Because of Schaffer Law Firm's generosity, the orchestra is able to receive donations and other non-profit perks essential to running a volunteer-based organization. I highly recommend the Schaffer Law Firm for any non-profit or artist's legal needs. Thank you so much, Rachel! We are looking forward to you playing oboe with us soon in performance. :)

We consulted with Rachel because we needed some logistical help with our new business. She was very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. She provided the guidance we needed without trying to give us any services we don’t need. We will definitely use her services again when needed and recommend her to any small business owners needing help navigating the legal side of the business.
