Details

Stephen J. Fisch is a seasoned partner and attorney at law at Shevin Law Group, based in Sherman Oaks, California, bringing a wealth of experience and a robust background in both criminal and civil litigation. He has dedicated over a decade to defending and representing clients across various stages of criminal proceedings, from prearraignment investigations to appeals in appellate courts. His practice areas are extensive, covering everything from felonies and misdemeanors to more specific domains such as DUI, drug crimes, fraud and computer crimes. Furthermore, he is an active participant in civil litigation, handling cases related to business law, collections and restraining orders, among others.

A native of Central Florida, Mr. Fisch relocated to California in 1997 to pursue his undergraduate studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. During his time at the university, he was deeply involved in law enforcement, serving as a community service officer at the University of California Police Department. This role provided him with invaluable insights into the workings of law enforcement, a foundation that has proven instrumental in his legal career.

After earning his degree in biochemistry and history, Mr. Fisch decided to stay in Southern California to attend Loyola Law School in downtown Los Angeles. He distinguished himself academically and participated in the Sutherland Rich Patent Moot Court Team. His commitment to the field of law was evident early on, as he began his legal career as a law clerk in 2004, even before completing his law degree.

In recognition of his accomplishments, Mr. Fisch is rated “Very Good” on Avvo. His advocacy extends beyond the courtroom; he is a fervent supporter of marijuana law reform and represents medical marijuana patients, caregivers and collectives in both criminal and civil contexts. He is a member of The State Bar of California and the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws Legal Committee, reflecting his commitment to ongoing professional development and engagement with the legal community.
