Testimonials

Ilana Schauer is razor-sharp and rock-solid stable. She is extremely emotionally attuned and responsive to what is happening in the moment (and as anyone knows who has been through this process, things can shift quickly and you can feel overwhelmed fast). Ilana will not waiver. She provides solid guidance through the trying process and is steadfast, strategic, and inspiringly brilliant.

She is a phenomenal advocate for her clients and the children. She has excellent communication skills and can break things down for you fast. She will not rack up your bill and gets right to the point. Given her breadth of talent and skill, her rates are extremely reasonable.

I interviewed over 12 attorneys and previously worked with a family law attorney who had a very good reputation, but could not handle the opposing counsel and party well, and costs skyrocketed with little progress in the case. I needed someone who could effectively and efficiently deal with challenging personalities and aggressive tactics. I knew very quickly in our first meeting that Ilana was the one.

Over the course of the following year I only continued to be more and more impressed by her work. Her writing skills are spot on—straightforward, factual, and fierce when needed. On a personal level, I deeply appreciated her compassion, honesty, and humor. She was always respectful, responsive, and able to explain complex matters clearly. She is also very attentive to detail and frequently caught mistakes by the opposing counsel and party. I always felt extremely well represented. Ilana Schauer is truly a gem and you are very lucky if she takes your case.

There are no words to express how grateful I am to have been referred to Ilana! From the first phone call I made to inquire about the divorce process to the filing of the final judgement papers, Ilana was there every step of the way. She kept me informed during the entire process and answered all of my questions. She made me feel confident that we could get through this process together and as peacefully as possible.

Ilana understood from the beginning that although my spouse and I still loved each other, there was nothing healthy about our relationship. When she contacted my spouse, she was kind and respectful, yet firm and clear with the next steps. She always asked how we were doing and it felt genuine. She wanted to keep this process as amicable as possible as there were children affected by it as well. She displayed a care and concern for those involved and didn't make me feel like she was just doing a job. Ilana was thorough and efficient with all the paperwork and made any necessary changes quickly. She was extremely responsive and kept me informed of where we were in the process.

I hope to never have to use her services again, but I also hope that anyone searching a divorce or family law lawyer gives her a call. You will know in five minutes that you are in good hands!

Ilana helped me get through one of the most difficult times of my life and I can safely say that she fought for me as she would for family. She was professional and considerate during a sensitive time. She did a great job at translating legal-speak into English for me and making sure that I walked away with everything that was legally mine. It was a tough case, and I am so thankful to have had Ilana on my side. I highly recommend Ilana to anyone looking for an exceptionally strong and committed attorney.

I highly recommend the legal services of Ilana Schauer. She was enormously helpful to me over the course of my divorce proceedings.

This was not an experience I wanted to have. I'd heard the divorce attorney horror stories of never-ending fees. I interviewed multiple attorneys before I met Ilana. She seemed different, and she proved me right. She listened. She educated me. She offered steady and sound tactical insight and led negotiations with the other side to positive results. She was always accessible and responsive.

I hope never to have to use a divorce attorney again, but should that happen, I know one—a very good one.

Andrew Schauer is the BEST attorney I've ever worked with, and I have worked with many. Not only is he completely personable, but he knows his stuff. He goes above and beyond for you, which is rare in an attorney.

I engaged his services to help me negotiate a reality show I was trying to sell, and he was there for me from start to finish, offering incredibly helpful advice and thinking outside the box, which I really needed. He was affordable but still went totally above and beyond what was agreed upon.

I hope to have a long and successful relationship with Andrew. I feel so lucky to have found him. He truly cares about his clients!

I worked with Andrew on a small book contract recently. Andrew looked at the contract from every angle, helping me protect myself while strengthening my relationship with my publisher. Even though the book deal may have seemed small to an outsider, it was huge for me.

Andrew took the process seriously, asking great questions and suggesting changes to the contract that will ultimately benefit everyone involved. I appreciated how thorough and supportive he was throughout the process. I'm so glad I worked with someone whose passion is protecting passion.

I am extremely impressed with Andrew's legal expertise in the entertainment world. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable about his business, he has demonstrated great integrity in every aspect of dealing with our legal needs. He has an outstanding work ethic, impressive turnaround time, and is highly responsive to any questions or concerns.

He is courteous, articulate, and very personable in all interactions. He has recently been working with me on a very complex international deal involving U.S., South American, European, and Asian parties. He has the rare ability to understand and relate to each unique cultural perspective and tailor his verbal and written communications appropriately.

Andrew has been meticulous in keeping us informed at all stages of negotiation. A strong entertainment lawyer who has your back is absolutely mandatory. I recommend Andrew most highly.

Andrew Schauer is a great attorney who deserves far better than an 18-month-late review!

After we consulted by phone, I lost Andrew's contact information due to thyroid issues at the time, but today Google Calendar miraculously found his information again.

I spoke to Andrew about an intellectual property concern. A contractor had provided services to me that were very narrowly defined in a written agreement. Despite this, I was concerned about what claims this person could make on a future project. Andrew confirmed that my agreement was solid while also explaining the realities of the entertainment business and the possibility of disputes.

Andrew knows entertainment law, to say the least. He's friendly, personable, and an authority in his field. If you have entertainment industry concerns, make Andrew your first point of contact.
