Custody

She was amazing! Very nice and a great lawyer who knows her stuff! I was very happy to have used Mrs. Fisher for my custody case.

Child Custody Case.

I hired Emily Fisher to represent me in a child custody case and Appeal and Mediation. I filed for custody of my Grandson. She did everything she said she would do for me and kept me informed at all times. I could not have been more pleased with her knowledge of the law and for putting my mind at e...ase during a very trying time. She was successful in her endeavors. I have custody of my Grandson now thanks to Mrs Fisher.

B. Wood

I hired Mrs. Fisher to be my advocate for my divorce. She gave me sound advice and did not waste my money. I am a Christian who wanted a lawyer who believes like I do. She is honest and caring and does exactly what she needs to do to fight on your behalf.

Family lawyer | May 06

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Emily Fisher and I have a long history. We have worked together, been partners and now sometimes find ourselves on the opposite side of things but there is ALWAYS a sense of respect and I know that her clients appreciate that, as much as I do. She is an awesome mediator and although we have been practicing about the same length of time, she came into the legal world a lot younger than than me but still managed to be a great mentor. (GO BAYLOR BEARS) She was one of the first Board Certified Attorneys in Galveston County and continues to shine in the legal community 30+ years later. I'd recommend her to anyone."

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.
