After his father-in-law R. Tzvi Hirsch Heller passed away in 1835, the latter's widow married the Chatam Sofer in his third marriage. Her daughter and son-in-law relocated with her to Pressburg and lived for several years in the home of the Chatam Sofer, where R. Avraham Yitzchak received much guidance from the Chatam Sofer in Torah and fear of G-d. He went to serve as rabbi of Freishtadtl (Hlohovec), and after several years, of Kleinwardein (Kisvárda). R. Avraham Yitzchak was a leading rabbi and yeshiva dean in those days in Hungary. His foremost disciples include R.

His son-in-law was R. Avraham Broda Rabbi of Berezne (1825-1882), author of Pri HeChag, disciple of the Chatam Sofer and the Ktav Sofer.
