Mom and Dad planning

Jim was the most professional and patient attorney I have ever worked with, helping my parents plan for their future. Both are in their 80's and Jim explained everything to both of them and our family. Not sure what we would have done without him. Highly recommend.

Executor of my Dad's Estate

As the executor of my Dad's estate. I was not satisfied with Attorney Fischer's demeanor (and remarks) before and after in carrying out my Dad's wishes. I resigned as executor of the estate. I will end here as I will refer the to "review guidelines" and move forward.

Excellent Firm

I am an attorney specializing in pension law. I have referred many clients to Attorney Fischer and his firm for elder law advice. Everyone I have referred has been very pleased.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
