May 10, 2021 by Andrew R. Fischer, Alimony

Historically, alimony was created to help prevent women who had put their own careers to the side to support their husbands and care for their children from becoming financially destitute. The

I’ve been working with Mr. Fischer for about a year through various family issues and I have to say that he has always been professional, courteous, sensitive and gone above and beyond without nickel and diming me. No one wants to hire a lawyer but, If you do have too, at least you know you can hire one with integrity with Mr. Fischer.

Andrew was so easy to work with on my divorce. His calm demeanor and easy going personality helped me to feel relaxed at a time when I was struggling, emotional and scared. Whenever I had a question he explained everything and got back to me either in email or by phone promptly. He tries to resolve things without stressing you out, but don’t let his soft side fool you because he swoops in like super man when you need him for a fight.After looking for different attorneys for my divorce I am so glad I chose Andrew Fischer and had him in my corner. I was more than happy with what I received in my divorce settlement. I would totally recommend him. Plus he doesn’t try to break the bank on his cost. He was very good about his pricing.

I worked with Andrew on a fairly long divorce process and would highly recommend him. Andrew took the time to make sure I was properly educated on the entire process from the start, and understood what to expect overall, as well as the details along the way. I can't say enough how much this reduced the stress and uncertainty of a difficult situation. He was clear on my goals from the first day and never strayed from what was important to me in achieving a fair-to-all-parties outcome. He was particularly good at dealing with a less-than-professional opposing counsel and kept the process on-point.

I have nothing than good things to say about Andrew Fisher. He is knowledgeable, respectful and trustworthy. I had my aunt dealing with her divorce with language barrier. I helped her choose Andrew as her lawyer. Andrew and his team worked on the process with her smoothly and what amazed us is not one thing on what he had requested came back denied. He knows his work in and out also very confident. I am pleased with the service that we received from his office and will highly recommend him as a lawyer.Thank you Amy for all the coordination!

I highly recommend Andrew Fischer if you are looking for an honest, ethical, & trustworthy attorney. Going through a divorce is stressful enough without having to worry about whether or not you can trust your lawyer & if he’s really looking out for your best interest. The first lawyer I retained was disbarred & stole my retainer so it was hard for me to trust again. Over time I realized Andrew was very upfront about his fees, my case & what I could expect going forward. If I was confused about something he always took the time to patiently explain it to me. It’s been a long road but I’m finally divorced. Sending a huge thank you to Andrew & his team, I couldn’t have gotten through this ordeal without you! Happy Holidays & God Bless.

If you are a woman and you are planning on refine a divorce agreement with a separated spouse stay far away from this guy. He came into the mediation room with his hands shaking. He shook my ex's hand and confirmed his name and just shook mine saying nothing. He spoke to each of us separately and definitely spoke with my ex for far longer than me. He did not ask probing questions that would have been helpful and I spent $500 for a waste of an hour and a half. He is not up to the snuff of handling situations.

Andrew is not only an incredible lawyer, but he makes you feel as if you're talking with a good friend. Andrew is an honest lawyer who stuck by my side and reassured me through a very long, drug out divorce and made sure he had all the facts at hand to ensure that I had the best outcome not only for me but also my child. I now can sleep at night knowing my child is protected and I couldn't have done it without you. Andrew will fight for what is right and do what is best for his client. Thank you, Andrew, you truly made my journey much more bearable and kept my focus on the end goal.

I had a pleasant experience with Andrew. He was always professional and extremely calm and understanding which is a great virtue in situations when the client is going through a lot emotionally. He did not try to make matters worse just to get out a benefit like most lawyers would, nor did he made unnecessary comments. He was very supportive, I felt he had my back. I found him to be honest and straightforward always advising me for my best interest.Thank you Andrew, I wish you the best!God bless you.

Andrew came highly recommended from another attorney friend of mine. He handled everything from soup to nuts with the divorce. Its not an easy thing but I appreciate his honesty and integrity and not just looking at it from a money perspective. The lawyer from the other side put together many of the documents so we were able to review and keep our time and cost down. Ultimately in the end Andrew had hoped things would work out. Each case is unique and sometimes the decision is inevitable but others if it could be saved he would prefer it. If you need an attorney that gives you a great comfort level and knowledgeable definitely give Andrew a call.
