A capable and trustworthy attorney!

Alan is a very professional, honest attorney! He fights hard for his clients. He helped me with my child support modification case, and I am very happy with his practice along the process. I highly recommend Alan to anyone who have a family law case.

Awesome attorney

Alan helped me with a couple civil/family matters and he was awesome. Very friendly. He was very up front with what could happen but he was also very understanding. I would highly recommend him.

Awesome lawyer and person!

Alan is a great lawyer and person. His vast knowledge in family law gave me peace of mind during this awful process called divorce. He is reliable and always was available to quickly respond to any of my questions regarding the process. I am so glad I was referred to him. Thank you Alan for your help... and guidance!

Unprofessional and definitely doesn't care!

This attorney came to a mediation in my family case. He failed to provide me any direction for the mediation and failed to sit with the mediator and other party's attorney when drawing up a new parenting plan. By neglecting to be involved in the process, he never knew that they completely changed m...y entire parenting plan, even parts of it that were not up for discussion in the mediation. To make matters worse, he had his office fax me the new agreement to sign and failed to inform me that those changes were made. I am certain he never even looked over the document before requesting that I sign it. Fortunately, I was paying attention to what I was asked to sign. Mr. Fishman failed to return any of my calls regarding this matter and I never heard from him again. This left me open to many further petitions and mediations over the same issue for years. This attorney does not care about his clients or being the professional he represents himself as.
