A Louisville Attorney
That Goes The Extra Mile
Greetings! I’m Ira M. Schechter, Attorney at Law. I have been practicing law in Louisville as a sole practitioner for more than 33 years. My primary focus is in two areas: criminal defense and motor vehicle accidents where people were injured by another driver’s negligence. Contact me for a free consultation. Se habla español.

Compassionate Representation For
Criminal Defense
Over the course of my career, I have helped thousands of clients who were facing criminal charges in Kentucky because of a mistake that they made. I believe that a person should not be judged by their mistakes but rather by the good deeds of their entire life. Everyone deserves fair treatment in the criminal justice system.
Your rights and freedoms are at great risk when you are charged with a crime, but when you hire me, we can work together to try and minimize your charges and potentially get them reduced or, under the right circumstances, dismissed. I will make sure that you understand your legal situation so that you can make informed decisions and stay in control of your future.
When You Come To My Office,
You Can Speak To Me
One of the cornerstones of my law practice is that I am firmly committed to open and easy communication between myself and my clients. Vital to that is listening to what my clients have to say. If you’re not a good listener, you’ll never get a good result because you’ll never know all the facets of your client’s problem. Awareness of these factors is critical to creating the right case strategy and getting clients what they need.
When you speak with me about your case, I concentrate on listening and asking a lot of probing questions in order to get the information I need from you to be able to help you. Whether it is a criminal defense case or a car wreck, getting all the facts is essential to my work.
I Am Always Ready
To Help A New Client
You are always welcome to speak with me if you need an attorney. With my three decades of experience, I am confident that I can help you if you have been charged with a crime or injured in a car accident due to someone else’s negligence. You can schedule a free consultation with me to discuss how I can help you with your situation.
To set up your consultation, you can call my Louisville office at 502-234-2600, or send me a message through my website. Yo hablo español.
Dedicated
Defense Advocate
As my firm’s founder and sole proprietor, I have focused my career on helping people who find themselves in a difficult situation by mistake or simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I believe that a key element to successful representation is communication and that listening drives results. My office serves a diverse assortment of clients, many of whom are immigrants to this country as well as veterans.
