I was extremely pleased with the Law Office of Seth D. Schraier. Mr. Schraier was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile for me. Mr. Schraier was successfully able to guide me through some complicated child support issues and I am forever grateful for the services he provided. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his legal services to anyone in need of help.

Dishonest lawyer that only cares about getting your money. Wont answer timely messages and subsequently would lie about many things. If you care about family law as a NYS lawyer, have some dignity and help your clients with the respect they deserve. I would not recommend this lawyer for any legal matter to anyone.

Schraier was just assigned to me today and I am keeping my fingers crossed. I will keep you posted throughout the process. He seems like a straight to the point attorney!

Seth is an amazing lawyer! My ex husband was trying to stop my relocation with my daughter after I remarried. He attempted to sue me for full custody. I was nervous and scared. Seth answered every email and phone call no matter what time of day. He reassured me that I had nothing to worry about and he was right. By the time Seth was finished, my ex husband was begging to settle. The judge kept my full custody order in place, granted my relocated and I got everything I wanted and more! I couldn’t have done it without Seth’s help.

I met with Mr. Schraier today and I felt heard and understood. Firstly, he has a great personality, he was very professional and knowledgeable. He helped me understand what my options were for my case. After meeting with him and seeing him perform in the courtroom, I have complete trust in his expertise in the family law field. I am still somewhat nervous about the outcome of my case; however, I trust Mr. Schraier will give his absolute best to help me win my pending case.

Had a very bad experience with Mr. Schraier, i would not recommend him for family law matters. This individual will take your hard earned money and run with it, not an honest lawyer in any way, shape or form. Be aware of fake reviews in his office profile.

He was patient and knowledgeable always emailing and calling us back in a timely manner, he's also affordable compared to the rest and just as good if not better. Thanks for all your help and if ever we need a Family Law attorney you're our man. We would highly recommend him to friends, family and anyone who needs an Honest attorney.

Seth is an EXCELLENT lawyer. He is patient & a true professional in his field. My child custody process itself was extremely overwhelming and emotional, but having the best attorney in my corner gave me the confidence to continue to fight for my son and the motivation to move on with my life. I am pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Seth to anyone who needs a Family Law Attorney. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!!

Seth is an amazing person and an even better family law attorney! He is knowledgeable, supportive, patient, and funny. Throughout the case he calmed my worries and explained everything that was going on or what could be a possible outcome. He was very responsive to all my questions/concerns. I highly recommend him to anyone.

Seth was a great lawyer!!! He was able to help my husband get his visitation rights with his daughter. He always answered his emails when needed. He never missed any of my husband’s court dates. Me and my husband are both happy to have worked with Seth.

Wow where can I begin - don't bother using this law office! My fiancé paid for services in 2017 for an uncontested divorce and we are still waiting for the papers to go before the judge. We have contacted Esq Seth D. Schraier various times trying to get updates or instructions on how to speed up the process but either no response is obtained or we get information in pieces.

In our last email conversation because he never has time return a phone call or talk in person - he said "There is nothing to be done or that can be done at this point unless I hear back from the court that something has to be corrected."

Almost 3 years later he has no inclination to go to the court or reach out to clerical and ask the status of a "uncontested divorce" that normally takes between 6 weeks to 18months the most in the state of New York.

We gave him a chance, even though at the time he was working out of his messing small NY apartment because we understood that quality work doesn't always have to come from a 13th floor building but clearly we made a mistake. We put our faith in him as he assured us that this would be a easy transaction if the other party agreed and didn't want to settle or go after any assets.

Yet today is August 15 and we are still waiting because that is all he can do since he got paid in full and has better things to do.

He has been my attorney from the start, so here is my short story.
One day when I was in court I met this guy who told me about his attorney whose name was Seth. Since I had no attorney at the time I took the number and a few months later, Seth became my attorney. The irony was, Seth ever met the guy nor did he ever represented him. I could not explain it but Seth was my attorney for the last 5years. For those of you who believe in Devine intervention..... well I live that up to you, but I was able to get the best attorney in N.Y ,and so should you .

Mr. Schraier was the 3rd attorney we had to hire in our down-modification petition of a child support order case which lasted almost 3 years. It can be frustrating to prove your case when you need to lower your responsibilities in NYC even if your income been drastically reduced. We had to change 2 lawyers because of unsatisfactory performance. We found out about Mr. Schraier over the Internet along with other potential candidates and we interviewed all of them over the phone from another, distant state before we made a decision whom to hire. Mr. Schraier seemed to be very much down to earth, but sharp and attentive. His fees were surprisingly reasonable. He did not charge us for the minutes an communicated with us as it was needed. He's working with an economical overhead therefore he is able to give a competitive flat-rate. Mr. Schraier put an objection to the magistrate's order which was granted by a judge and still the magistrate wanted to postpone a decision for unknown period of time. Mr. Schraier was able to convince the custodial parent to settle and successfully negotiate a favorable stipulation in a short period of time, saving thousands of dollars for us.
Therefore we highly recommend Mr. Schraier.

The day that I sought out Seth's help was easily the worst day of my entire life. I was blindsided with a petition for full custody of my son whom I had raised on my own for the majority of his life. My emotions were unfathomable and as I eagerly sifted through my choices online- Seth left the best first impression. Im sharing my personal experience because If you are reading this, I'm sure you are feeling exactly how I felt. Unable to grasp why or how this is happening and desperate for immediate help. CALL SETH. I called and left a message and a minute later he personally returned my phone call and made time in his schedule to see me that day. After speaking to him, I left our meeting feeling confident and secure that myself and my son were in the best care. Here is what you can expect: open and regular communication, a thorough education on how the system works in NYC, affordable prices, a hard worker who works around the clock and on Sunday's, and an all around great relationship that you can trust. Also, it is very helpful that he is familiar with every family court building in NYC and is also highly regarded by his colleagues.
I hope this review helps you in your decision, as it's a very hard decision to make. Please know that once you contact Seth, he will walk alongside you in helping to improve your situation whatever it may be.

I did contact Seth through Yelp actually, looking for an attorney in my divorce, and living in Sugar Hill, his location was really convenient. But most of all his explanation about the divorce procedure permit me to find a solution to avoid any fight with my ex-wife and he did file for me at a very reasonable cost. I am really thankful to Seth for his work, especially because, since the separation, I'm living back in my original country and it would be have been extremely difficult for me to manage all that without his help and support. I highly recommend his services.

Seth is the best. I had a complicated case. When I contacted Seth, unlike other Attorneys Seth was more concern about coming up with solutions for my case instead of the money. His 2 hour consultation is real. He is also great in communicating with his client. Every time I called, he always return my calls. In the end my case was thrown out and my ex was forced to send my kids back to Florida.

Attorney, Seth handled a custody case for me. He was efficient, courteous and expressed sympathies. He took time to discuss the legal proceedings with me and made me a part of the legal process. My case was personal to me and he took the time to be there with me during this sensitive time. In addition, with his representation, I continue to have custody. Thank you for the personal touch, so seldom seen in this setting.

Seth is a very decent and honest man. He is true to his word and especially empathetic. He assisted me with a child support case and put his all into it, wanting nothing but the best for me which i truly appreciate. He definitely deserves two thumbs up. I recommend all his services as you'll be getting nothing but the best, guaranteed.

I hired Seth Schraier to represent me in family court for what was naturally a sensitive issue. Being that my problem got to the point of having to be in court, all I wanted was the best outcome I could possibly get. My expectations were not only met with Mr. Schraier, but surpassed.

He followed up constantly, and did not treat my smaller case as if it was not a big deal to me since it was for an order of protection. He was very accessible to me and all of my concerns, and has even corresponded with me after the case was over and settled, because I still had quetions 3 months later pertaining to a record etc. It should also be said that his personality handling this was a bonus. Family law is very personal and emotions can influence your decision in court at times.

My experience was actually a bit surprising because Mr. Schraier didn’t meet the stereotype you see on TV of a lawyer who just wants to bill you for a phone call. As someone who is relatively young and never had to deal with the law or lawyers, it was such a relief to know that I got extraordinary defense despite being naive to what I would want in a representative, or what I should be charged.

Mr. Schraier is an excellent family-law lawyer.. He is an efficient and bright lawyer that brings common sense to the practice of law that is rare. One of the best things about Seth is his responsiveness. He gets answers for you and gets them fast. I was very happy with his advice, great can-do positive attitude, efficiency, and reasonable pricing structure. Seth helped me protect my daughter and I am very thankful for his guidance. Thank you Seth for your help.

Hired him for a case of mine and pleased I did. He is knowledgeable, efficient and professional. He returns calls/texts/emails and knows his stuff! Payment options/plans are also very reasonable. Thanks Seth!!

This man has put my mother through hell and back. After receiving payment and all the documents for my parents divorce he has been hiding from my mother and ignoring her calls. Its been 5+ months and he has yet to take the papers to court and ignores when she tries to get them back from him to do it herself. After 25 years of an unhappy marriage you would think this man would have the decency to help her after she PAYED HIM!

Seth handled a child visitation/protection order case for me, he succeeded in returning my visitation rights and even managed to get the Order of Protection dropped. Seth Schraier is an outstanding and honest attorney. I would gladly recommend his services for any Family Law matter.
