The Bais Din is wonderful but for the fact they are afraid of getting sued and will not stand up for Halacha when they conflict.
Do not use this beis din. They are corrupt. They just sat there and ate babka cake while there was violation happening in front of their eyes. They were disrespectful and inconsiderate of my time, money, emotional well being.
They took and took money and didn’t do anything. We ended up negotiating. They allowed my ex to share private sensitive information that he stole. They were not careful with time. They came late, took tons of breaks and were overall callous with the dire situation.
Do not sign the document they give you to sign that binds you to this beis din. Don’t use this beis din. Don’t be afraid and speak up when they feel something isn’t ok.
I am thankful to this Beis Din for helping to give me my get. I believe the Rabbi has a good heart and cared but I didn’t think with all the men there I was spoken in the most sensitive way and I would recommend going with female representation or support to any beis din.
I didn’t feel that I was spoken to in the nicest or most respectful way
It’s important to have female representation
The professionalism and compassion.
Rabbi Shuchat was responsive
I basically was a persona non-grata. Despite the fact that I was the only breadwinner, my ex who claimed to be a Talmid Chacham and knew many of the members of the Beit Din, also admitted sleeping with dozens of prostitutes, yet none of that seemed to matter.
