RJ Fischer

RJ has been the Best lawyer I have had out of my encounters with lawyers! Actually cared about my personal life and my future and how we could get a resolution that would allow me that opportunity to get back on track and follow through on my dreams! Price was amazing, cheap but not cheap to make you... question whether or not he can get the job done haha! Very thorough and precise and helpful, I’m even gonna take my family to see him next time we are in York! Thanks RJ and keep up the great work!

I got myself in some legal trouble & RJ Fisher was listened to my situation, he worked with me even during the Covid 19 pandemic & I am very happy with the results.

Above and Beyond

Attorney Fisher not only handled my case with professionalism but he went above and beyond to help my wife and I navigate one of the most difficult times in our life. He was knowledgeable and prompt when we had questions, sometimes he even answered emails during off hours when he knew we were scared ...an anxious about what was happening with our case. He seemed to know the right people at the courthouse and was well respected among his peers. He was also very reasonably priced and did not hide any fees or charge us extra for communication where most lawyers would. We highly recommend Attorney Fisher for any and all criminal proceedings. He is a up and coming lawyer that is worth far more than his fee.

Great

Was very happy with attorney Fisher's work. He was very good at getting back to you if you left a message . You wouldn't have to wait long. He also explained everything very well so it was easy to understand. I would definitely recommend him.

Excellent customer service

RJ was excellent with everything. RJ had all of the information on my arrest when I had my consultation. After hiring RJ, everything was great. He was available the majority of the time to answer questions whenever I called in. If he was not in the office, he called me back the same day to answer any... of my questions. He was extremely professional and punctual with any meetings or appearances that we needed to make. RJ had great knowledge of the law and all possible outcomes. I received the best deal possible and everything worked out in my favor.

"Attorney Fisher is one of the most seasoned litigators in York currently. I have personally witnessed him try multiple cases with precision and success. Not only is he knowledgeable and aggressive in a court room, he is also a man of sincere principals and shows devoted compassion to his clients. Not many attorneys understand the importance of truly hearing out your clients and knowing and advocating for what their specific goals in a case are. Attorney Fisher has demonstrated a keen ability to do this while winning case after case."
