Moving Foward, With Integrity and Respect
Kelly Caperton Fischer on doing what’s best for clients:
I excel at finding creative and respectful solutions to family law matters, including property and child-related issues. Understanding that each family is unique and has different end goals, I use “collaborative law” as a critical foundation to help clients put settlement at the forefront, negotiate more openly and truly focus on what is best for their family. This results in them making smart long-term decisions, including effective co-parenting plans, customized possession schedules and creative property settlements.
Here’s how:
- Collaborate with clients to help them make holistically wise decisions for their families.
- Counsel clients on the importance of being mindful of their behavior and actions towards each other, so they can be healthy co-parents and achieve long-lasting and productive results.
- Bring a sense of calm and level-headedness to very difficult and sensitive situations, whether the matter is complex and contentious or simple and agreed.
- Usher clients toward an amicable and reasonable solution in a respectful manner through thorough preparation and sound advice.
