About Law Firm
We have a vast amount of experience defending with the rights of individuals throughout all stages of criminal prosecutions and investigations conducted by State and Federal authorities. The firm’s criminal practice embraces all types of criminal offenses, ranging from assaults to DUI offenses. The goal of each criminal defense attorney is to work aggressively on behalf of their clients with the aim of having the charges dismissed or penalties reduced.
Often when someone is arrested and charged, words are exchanged between the person arrested and the arresting officer that are not relevant to the charge. Once a York criminal lawyer is called to handle the case, then the first step is to separate fact from fiction. When this has been done, the criminal lawyer from our office can pursue your case in earnest.
Anybody who is charged with an offense is presumed to be innocent until guilt is proven. This means that once arrested and charged, it is not a foregone conclusion that you will be sentenced immediately. With the professional help of a criminal defense attorney from our law office you have every chance to be treated more fairly than if you tried to defend yourself. Our aim is to ensure that you get the justice you deserve. In some cases, we will be able to get your charge dismissed altogether. If you are convicted, then we will make sure you only get the penalty which fits your crime.

Dave helped me through my divorce and custody trial. My case was long and complicated and he was able to help me gain primary custody of my son. He was definitely prepared for our multiple days of trial. I highly recommend Dave for any family matter where you need an attorney.
I retained Attorney Schanbacher for custody and divorce proceedings. Just had the custody trial and he was very well prepared and was really great in the courtroom (much more than her attorney). He listened to my thoughts throughout trial preparation and was very accommodating to my requests. The trial went in my favor due to his preparedness and experience even in a very "he said/she said" case. I couldn't be happier with him representing me.
Dave Schanbacher was retained for a relocation and custody hearing and from the first moment was dedicated to helping me prepare and win my case. His knowledge of family law is unparalleled and his straightforward approach was appreciated. Dave is a thorough and skilled attorney, and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking representation in Family Law. His preparation and work in the court room left opposing counsel fumbling and grasping at straws. Thank you for all that you did for us.
As I near $40k, over a year and a half in divorce expenses, I could not imagine having a better lawyer and ally than Dave Schanbacher. In divorcing the daughter and sister, of two county judges (from the county in which we and our children live), Dave has brought knowledge and accountability to a flawed system. His profound expertise has enabled him to sort out fact from fiction, and to beautifully navigate what is clearly an uphill battle, and this arduous process. While we still have much work to do, I can’t imagine having a better and more trustworthy attorney. My only regret, is that I didn’t hire Dave as my first attorney; instead opting for a local, and egregiously less talented local (Bellefonte) attorney.
What a relief to have found Dave Schanbacher! I was concerned about the first lawyer I hired, because they seemed distracted, unable to locate papers I had previously given to them and not able to grasp the whole picture. Worriedly, I asked several of my lawyer friends who they personally would use and each one recommended Dave. Boy, were they ever right! I was so relieved at the very first meeting, when he quickly went through my huge, messy pile of papers and was able to figure things out in his head, not even using a calculator. (wish I could do that) He's an extremely intelligent, driven man who cares about me and doesn't ever waste my time (or $). I've been pretty at ease going to settlements and meetings just because Dave is always so well-prepared, emotionally engaged and on top of every little detail. When describing him to friends, I always say the same thing- "He's like a dog with a bone; he doesn't give up!!!" So glad he's in MY corner and not on the other team.
