I came to Michael Fischer for help with a custody modification. My previous lawyer had let things slip, but Michael took charge right away. He’s direct, compassionate, and always gave clear advice. I appreciated his honesty about pricing and expectations. We got the results I needed for my kids.

I can't recommend Fischer and Van Thiel enough! This firm handled my family law issue with outstanding professionalism, expertise, and genuine care. From the very first consultation (which was free) the team (Andrea***** - I give Andrea five out of five stars) demonstrated deep knowledge of California family law, clear communication, and a strategic approach that made a VERY STRESSFUL situation much more manageable. Mike is skilled, responsive, and always prioritized what was best for my family while keeping things efficient and cost effective! Their guidance was and is spot on in paperwork, court preparation, and they've fought hard to achieve a reasonable outcome. On a more personal note, my regular point of contact, paralegal ANDREA is truly exceptional and it would be in order to give her a pay raise. She was incredibly responsive to my questions (often the same day via phone or email), explained complex detail in plain language that has eased my anxiety, kept me updated every step of the way, and went above and beyond to make sure I felt supported throughout the process! Her dedication, patience, and attention to detail made a huge difference in what could have been an overwhelming experience. Andrea is an absolute asset to the firm! Thank you to the entire team at Fischer & Van Thiel for the compassion, tenacity and RESULTS! If you are facing a family law issue in the North County San Diego, look no further - this is the firm you want in your corner!!!!! FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!!!!

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.

Michael Fischer helped me during a very emotional divorce with complex finances. His business background made a huge difference in understanding our property division. He explained the process clearly, fought for what was fair, and didn’t waste time or money. Communication was solid, and his staff was great too. Highly recommend.

Someone told me they don't even know what civil rights mean.
Owner response
I reviewed our records which are required and find to never have had contact with a Joseph Kruger. I would suggest he might have the wrong firm as our fim represent clients in family law case exclusively so the comment about civil rights is confusing.<br>
