About Shawn
Shawn Hillewaert earned a B.A. in economics and Spanish from the University of Utah and a J.D. from the University of Wyoming College of Law. He completed a legal education that combined study of law with a background in language and social science. Those academic threads shape how he approaches client matters and legal questions.
He is admitted to practice in Colorado and is listed as a lawyer at Fisher & Associates P.C. His arrival at the firm followed completion of his law degree, and he has worked there as part of the firm's legal staff. Fisher & Associates P.C. is his current professional home and the base from which he serves clients in the state.
At the firm, Hillewaert handles matters for individuals and organizations that bring a range of legal issues to the office. He prepares filings, advises on procedural steps, and represents clients in hearings and negotiations. His courtroom experience and routine handling of filings are part of the day-to-day work he takes on for people who need counsel in Colorado.
His undergraduate studies in economics give him a practical lens for cases that involve financial questions. His study of Spanish adds an ability to engage with Spanish-language materials and to communicate with Spanish-speaking clients. Those elements of his training inform how he evaluates documents and prepares evidence, and they shape his interactions with clients.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in how he manages case files and precise in drafting pleadings. He maintains the organizational systems that the firm uses to track deadlines and filings. Outside of casework, he participates in firm meetings and contributes to case strategy sessions, offering written analyses and research to support the team.
Hillewaert continues to practice law in Colorado at Fisher & Associates P.C., where he handles client matters arising in state courts and administrative settings.
