Fischer & Van Thiel, PC

Gracìas por todo Bonny y señor Van thiel ☺️

We used Fischer & Van Thiel to create a prenup before marriage. The lawyer was very knowledgeable and helped us understand every clause. Appointment was on video call and went smoothly. Fair fees and no hidden charges. Would use again if needed.

I hired Fischer & Van Thiel for a contested divorce involving child custody. They explained the process clearly, kept me informed, and negotiated a custody plan that worked. Their fees were reasonable, and I appreciated their quick responses during a stressful time.

Estate planning help was excellent. Michael explained everything. Virtual consultation was smooth. Cost was clear. Documents ready quickly, no surprises.

Filed for child custody. Linda helped a lot. Great updates and follow-through. Affordable pricing. Felt confident throughout. Would use again.

Fischer and Van Thiel have been a great law firm. From the beginning of my consultation up to my final divorce proceedings and anything asked after has been nothing short of professional and courteous. They ensure clarification and are responsive when handling your case. I'd recommend them to anyone.

Update: It's very obvious that this firm has no interest in assisting me, and just wants to be rid of me as a client. After I submitted the review below, I received a couple phone calls from Michael Fischer attempting to speak to me about my review, but unfortunately, I was not available the first few times they attempted to reach me. The paralegal Andrea Lora also proceeded to mention the review in an email correspondence that was not associated with the review at all. Extremely unprofessional and petty. Once I did get on the phone to discuss the review, the incompetence was just further justified as the paralegal and Mr. Fischer either left out, or were just entirely unaware of certain details of my case. Which, to a layman, you'd think that working for a law firm would require you to be able to get your facts straight. Even the smallest ones. The phone call did not solve anything, as it was not made in empathy, it was made in order to try and get me to change my review and start making payments. I did not feel as if my concerns and complaints were actually being heard, but rather that the phone call started off in a defensive tone and the entire time Mr. Fischer just proceeded to present his own justifications and excuses as to why my point of view was incorrect. The actual attorney, Jennifer Lacy, that took over my case was not so, and proved to be helpful and courteous. Now that the document I require has been prepared and sent to the opposing party, I am running into more obstacles that need legal guidance, and the paralegal asked how I would like to proceed. Mind you, I am in no way educated on family law, so I simply stated how I would like to proceed based off of what the paralegal told me if this document is not signed. She responds by stating "It is not as easy as "filing a court order"." And proceeds to THEN explain the entire process and mention how "substantial" the cost will be. Naming off and listing how it will cost me thousands of dollars, as if to wave it in my face and show me how I cannot afford their help. People need help. Real help. While this may just be your day job, this is my life. ----------------------------------------------------------------- I would never recommend this law firm to anyone needing help with family court. This is the first and only time I have ever needed a private attorney, but the representation was a joke. My attorney let me lose custody to a self-represented man who was documented lying and then literally told me that there "was no justice in family court". I do not know if it is normal to not receive responses to emails that contain TIME SENSITIVE QUESTIONS for weeks at a time from a lawyer, but this is how it has been since the beginning. Sometimes they'll respond within a business day or two, other times they won't respond at all or it will be at least a week or more. I was assigned to another lawyer once this attorney left the firm, and then when I still hadn't received the documents I needed, I find out that I have been assigned to yet another attorney who I was completely unaware of. Incompetent is the word that comes to mind. I paid a retainer fee, and now owe several thousand dollars to a law firm that has DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR ME. NOTHING. I cannot believe that I paid someone to help serve JUSTICE and that IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED.
