Mr. Fisher was born in Tampa, Florida in 1948. He graduated from St. Joseph's University with a Bachelor of Science in History in 1971. In 1974, he received his Juris Doctor from the University of North Carolina School of Law in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Mr. Fisher has practiced law continuously since 1974. He began his career with the New Jersey Attorney General's Office and spent eleven years there. As a Deputy Attorney General, he served the State in wide-ranging fashion. He provided advice to the Department of Labor, Division of Unemployment Insurance and to the Board of Public Utilities. He supervised different sections of the Office's Division of Law.  He handled substantial appeals on behalf of the State at all levels, including the United States Supreme Court (and has in excess of 30 published opinions to his credit). Most importantly, he represented the State and State officials - - from members of the Judiciary to cabinet officers to troopers in the Division of State Police - - in complex litigations in the areas of construction, civil rights, constitutional rights, discrimination, insurance, and inter-and-intra-state solid waste regulation.

Eleven years of his career were spent in private practice with a respected firm in Princeton, New Jersey.  There, as partner, Mr. Fisher handled litigations for a variety of clients in a variety of substantive areas, including employment law. He provided advice to local government agencies. Administratively,  he led the firm's Litigation Practice Group. During this period, Mr. Fisher continued his association with the State of New Jersey, serving as special counsel to the State (and State employees) in litigations involving Division of State Police matters and budget disputes between the Judiciary and various New Jersey counties. He also enjoyed the privilege of serving as special counsel to the State of North Carolina and its judiciary  in a federal matter litigated in New Jersey.

In 1997, Mr. Fisher co-founded Zuckerman & Fisher. Since starting the firm, he has devoted his practice to representation of wronged employees in all areas of employment law. His clients have run the gamut from upper-level management in Fortune Five Hundred corporations to blue-collar workers in small businesses; and his cases have covered age, race, gender and disability discrimination, wrongful termination in violation of public policy, whistle-blowing, sexual harassment, and more. Because of his work in the employment setting, Mr. Fisher has also developed an interest and competence in matters involving church and canon law. In this area, in both church and secular forums, he has represented clergy accused of sexual improprieties, misconduct, and violation of ordination vows. He has also defended them against efforts to dissolve the pastor-congregation relationship and, where dissolution  occurs, to secure their professional and financial interests.

Mr. Fisher has been married since 1971, and he and his wife, an educator, have two grown children. Over the years, he has been active in his community, having served on a redevelopment authority, local school board, and utility advisory board. He has also been deeply involved in the Episcopal Church in New Jersey, both at local and diocesan levels. And, he has committed substantial time to the arts, serving six years as a trustee of the Princeton Ballet Society and continuing to provide that body pro bono legal advice.
