Law Office of Myra Chack Fleischer

Myra Fleischer has been a leading San Diego family law attorney since 1997. With much experience in civil litigation and as a San Diego divorce lawyer, Fleischer decided to start her own firm in 2001, the Law Office of Myra Chack Fleischer. The sole intent was to create a firm rooted in a caring and understanding approach to the individual legal situation of each client. Today, the firm focuses on divorce and other family law areas such as property division, custody and support, agreements, mediation services, assets, and violence and abuse.

The firm has helped hundreds of clients reach satisfactory divorce settlements, while avoiding costly court battles through the use of San Diego divorce mediation and collaborative process as well as other means. One of the major contributing factors to this success is Fleischer's 10-year background in accounting and then as a controller for international software company -- she understands numbers and negotiations.

As a San Diego collaborative practice attorney, Fleischer does her best to help clients settle all matters without having to go to litigation. She holds a strong belief in the advocacy of children to the sensitive practice of domestic law. Divorce is very trying on all members of the family, but it doesn't have to drain your finances. We work to keep peace of mind for clients and their loved ones. A divorce can have a tremendous impact on children's lives, and their welfare should be the foremost concern. It is vitally important that all parties stay amicable and keep communication open for the sake of the children.

The Law Office of Myra Chack Fleischer has a unique mix of legal, parenting and financial expertise for clients. In addition, the firm collaborates with therapists, investigators and other key resources to resolve your family law situation.
