Peter Andrew Hahn

Mr. Hahn represented us for a DCF matter. We were well prepared for the process, with expectations for the outcome reasonably set. Not only did Mr. Hahn allow us to best present our case, he masterfully exposed the flaws of the DCF position. Clearly, he is an experienced and skillful attorney. Th...e result was in our favor with a DCF reversal of their position. Mr. Hahn was highly professional, efficient and no nonsense, yet pleasant and easy to work with. We could not be more pleased with our experience and would highly recommend him.

My thoughts are very much like those posted by Susan on Nov. 20, 2017. But for our son, whose troubles during a school-based field trip resulted in having to address two different municipal juvenile courts, as well as the school administration, Peter was simply superb. The complexity of the situation... presented quite a challenge, and at no time did I feel doubtful of any step and consultation that Peter took. Moreover, I shall be forever grateful having him stand by my son's side, literally before two different benches and figuratively in his guidance as he showed respect and confidence in my son's ability to face his situation with honesty. There are other layers to the situation, not least of which was adolescent identity issues. Suffice it to say that Peter was the expert we needed, and a confident role model we very much needed at the time.

We met Peter by accident in the halls of the district courthouse, when the school system brought us and our 14-year old daughter before the judge due to school refusal. Middle school was a traumatic experience for her socially; a brilliant child (with purportedly mild autism) she gained 60 pounds her... first year and developed OCD. Her inability to attend was seen as bad behavior / poor parenting, and noone asked "Is this an appropriate education?", until we met Peter. He referred us to a neuropsych specialist, and helped us take the school system to court to secure an outside placement. She is now a community college graduate and seeking her 4 year degree at school in Boston. Not to be dramatic, but it is likely that this course of action saved her life. Thanks Peter!

My daughter was suffering from depression and other serious ailments. Rather than assist us, the school district took legal action against her, accusing her of fabricating the whole thing to avoid having to go to school, and then suggesting me and her mother were somehow a part of this crazy scheme.... We hired an advocate to advise us, and the first piece of advise she gave us was to call Peter Hahn. My daughter and I met with Mr Hahn, brought him up to speed on our situation, and he took it from there. Our next meeting in court went very different than prior interactions. Because of Peter Hahn's legal expertise, the high school was falling over backwards to make up for their gross negligence in assisting my daughter through her ailments. My daughter has since graduated high school, earned an associates degree from Quinsigamond Community College, and currently attends Fitchburg State University. Thank you, Peter Hahn!
