As a trial attorney with 33 years of experience, Amy successfully tried over 45 jury and bench trials in both State and Federal courts in the areas of professional liability, product liability, and catastrophic injury. As a trial lawyer, she earned a reputation as an intelligent, respectful, hardworking colleague and adversary who addressed each case with a practical approach. In turn, she gained the admiration and respect of the legal community. She also had a resolution-oriented, reasonable, and civil approach towards opposing counsel and the neutral when settling her own cases. It is no wonder many lawyers and judges encouraged her to be a mediator, it was clear she was destined to be a neutral.
Amy served as a mentor to budding trial lawyers and for decades held executive positions within several statewide bar groups. Starting in 1997, she served on numerous court mediation panels and programs and trained with court and private certification programs. In 2019, she followed her passion of being a full-time neutral and since has conducted over 700 private mediations and arbitrations in sexual assault, highly charged personal injury, wrongful death, product liability, and professional liability cases. One lawyer said, “Smart, sophisticated, experienced, and tireless. We presented a very challenging case, and Ms. Fisch Solomon went above and beyond to help the parties to secure a settlement. "
In her spare time, she enjoys wine tasting, hiking, classical ballet and dogs. She previously showed basset hounds at dog shows and confirmed two champions.
"This case didn’t settle but Ms. Solomon did a great job and I would use her again without reservation. The specific facts and issues presented by this case just didn’t make it ripe for settlement at this juncture despite her efforts. She provided good insight into challenges of the case."
