The Fischer Group, the fifteenth largest privately-held home builder in the United States, has announced they’ve hired Andrew Worrell as general counsel and corporate secretary.
Worrell replaces Paul Allen, who served in the position since 2017. Allen will continue with Fischer Homes through January 2024 as General Counsel Emeritus and Assistant Secretary.
“We are so pleased to have Andrew join our executive team here at Fischer Homes,” said Fischer Homes CEO Tim McMahon. “His experience with Fischer Homes and leadership experience made him the primary choice for growing The Fischer Group moving forward.”
Worrell received his bachelor’s degree in accounting from Lehigh University and his law degree from Louisiana State University.
Before joining The Fischer Group, Worrell has been in the private practice sector for 20 years, building a portfolio of clientele which included many Fortune 500 companies. He previously served as Vice President and Division General Counsel for Centex Homes and Associate General Counsel for Darden Restaurants.
Worrell has extensive expertise in real estate, risk analysis, strategy, acquisitions, corporate compliance, human resources, land use planning and litigation management.
