He is an AV-rated lawyer and is licensed to practice law in Colorado and Texas, as well as in numerous federal courts. He graduated with honors from Colorado State University in 1978, where he studied nuclear engineering. He then went on to receive his law degree from the University of Colorado School of Law in 1981.

In 1998, Mr. Fisher was selected to take the deposition of President Bill Clinton, thus becoming the only lawyer ever to depose a sitting president in a civil action against him.
