About Sarah
Biography
I practice in the areas of real estate, creditor's remedies, and mechanic's liens, and represent businesses and individuals in transactions and lawsuits. My real estate work includes partitions, quiet title, boundary disputes, and proceedings subsequent, representing landlords in drafting leases, rental advising, evictions and breach of lease litigation, and real estate transactions like parcel transfers. In my creditor's remedies practice, I work with individuals and businesses to recover outstanding debts, and help them enforce their judgments. I also help property owners and contractors file, enforce, and defend against mechanic's liens in residential and commercial construction disputes.

Professional and got the job done
I fully recommend Ms. Fisher to represent you should you require an attorney. Not only was her representation of me successful, it was fast, and stress free. I did not need to worry about anything. She kept me informed the entire way and quickly secured my judgment from the other side. Ms. Fishe...
