Divorce law is complex and requires the help of experienced legal counsel. The end of a marriage is an emotionally charged time that necessitates the help of an attorney who has experienced what you are currently experiencing. Michael Fischer and Craig Van Thiel, partners at Fischer & Van Thiel, L.L.P., combine experience with compassion for residents of Carlsbad and military personnel serving on area bases.
The process for obtaining a military divorce is basically the same as maintaining a civilian divorce. It is a relatively simple process but does however require that a certain few criteria are met. If a couple has been married for less than five (5) years, does not have children, does not own real estate and has relatively little to no debt, they may qualify for a summary dissolution.
The dissolution of a marriage can be costly in both emotional and financial terms. While it is unpleasant to think about a marriage ending, some of the most painful aspects of a divorce can be avoided through an ironclad prenuptial agreement. These documents can address issues as complex as spousal support, property division, and more.

Michael and his staff did a great job of representing me and my best interests during my divorce. They provided me with sound counsel, professional administrative support and walked me through what was a confusing legal process.
I started off thinking I could represent myself against my ex and her lawyer....how quickly I learned the divorce process in California is a racket and a nightmare. Mike's team stepped right in, coordinated everything and saw it through to a successful end. A good portion of my divorce was long distance due to working out of state. Michael represented me in court when

Mike and Dennis ran point on my security clearance. When you receive an SOR in the mail it can seem like a final irrevocable ruling. It gave me confidence knowing I had a competent team working on my case. It wasn’t an easy or quick process but they worked hard until the SOR was withdrawn. Thank you!

I am extremely grateful for all of the hard work and dedication! Fischer and Van Thiel was able to shed light on common family law questions and take some of the mystery out of custody matters. We’ve gone from battling with visitation, making decisions about the upbringing and welfare to both parents equally participating in raising our child while living separately. It all didn’t happen overnight, but attorney Craig Van Thiel and his staff have achieved unparalleled success and most importantly have done so for the benefit of me and my daughter. They are all good people, however I strongly

Mr. Fischer was a light of sunshine to my situation at a time when my options appeared restricted and the probability of a satisfactory resolution seemed near to impossible. Not only was he able to defend me from an unfair accusation, his professional and empathetic demeanor offered emotional assistance to myself and those I care about. My child and I are eternally grateful for his service and I would recommend Mr. Fischer wholeheartedly." Also would like to thank is office manager Bonnie and assistant Andrea

Do not trust this law firm at all. Thomas Fischer did not care about anything about the case but was only concerned about charging for every little thing and faking time sheets to get more money. He only pretended to act concerned when it was time to pay for the bill. He was embarrassing in court and I honestly dont even know how this law firm hasnt been sued and disbarred.

RUN RUN RUN!!!!!!!! THEY don't care about you or your family! They number 1 GOAL IS MONEY!! They tell you anything and make all kinds of promises that they do not keep. After they bleed you dry and take all your money and house then they go to court and ask to be removed. They quit on you. They also tell you they hire professionals but they don't. It is people they know and have other jobs. I can go on and on for days but I think you get the point. Any other office or you doing it alone is better than this off. SO RUN RUN RUN from this office.
Thanks,

I had moved out of California, with a 3 year separation / divorce pending. I called Mike at Fischer & Van Thiel to seek advice on how to proceed being I live in Idaho. Mike, Anne, and Shari were all very informative and thorough with information and communicating to me without delay. It's been a long road and I'm pleased to say Fischer and Van Thiel helped me put closure to an emotional and particularly financially stressful time. I want to thank them all for all of their expertise and kind understanding. I would definitely recommend this group of lovely people. thank you~
