Brilliant, caring legal mind(s)

Once again I find myself in a position to retain the services of Peyrouton Law Firm. While unfortunate, I must say, the silver lining of these circumstances are the unequalled representation of, in my opinion, the best, most hands on legal team one could ever hope for. I found Mr. Peyrouton quite by... accident, calling attorneys for an unfortunate criminal matter I'd been entangled in. He immediately put me at ease, fully explaining the process, what to expect, and how to proceed. When I met his associate, Kevin Brown, who exhibited the same values as Mr. Peyrouton, I knew immediately I'd made the right choice. This is a first rate firm, that prioritizes your defense, cares about you, and follows up meticulously. If you need representation for yourself, or someone you care about, look no further.

Best lawyer

I got a DUI. It was my first so I was scared. But he helped me in the whole process. He told me what to do and how to do it. At the end the result was good for me. So if u got a DUI (I hope not), you must contact Mr. Alan Peyrouton

Exceptional Defense Attorney Look No Further He is the One!

From the 1st conversation on the phone I knew he was the one to represent me against a simple assault and harassment charge with a neighbor. In my short experience in seeking an attorney, none presented themselves with such professionalism and thorough knowledge of the law, the court system and attor...neys. While one attorney I met asked if I brought the money within 5 minutes of speaking to me. Another wanted me to retain them without a face to face meeting. Alan not only spoke to me on the phone, he made arrangements to meet face to face to discuss my case. In our face to face meeting I never felt pressured as he was approachable, charismatic and considerate of my emotional and financial situation. He spoke of his accomplishments proudly and reassured me not of the outcome of my case but of his expertise in the system and success with similar cases. As soon as he arrived at the courtroom I felt a sense of relief as that is not a place you want to be alone. He knew the security personnel, the prosecutor, and even pinpointed when the judge would be arriving. His confidence put my mind at ease. He warned me prior that it may take several court appearances but would fight alongside me to get the best possible outcome for me. So I was ecstatic to find he accomplished everything in the 1st court appearance. Case was dismissed and charges were dropped. He is extremely good at reading people and knew I was the real victim here so was not willing to have the case go any other way. Once the decision was made to have the charges dropped and we were waiting to go before the judge, he took out a book which demonstrated to me his enthusiasm to better himself in his field. It’s no wonder he has a 9.7 AVVO rating, but in my eyes he deserves a 10 and beyond. He is an honest, down to earth, compassionate attorney who is willing to go the extra mile for his potential and future clients like myself. I would recommend him to everyone I know as it is hard to find a good one whose not out for himself. I’m glad I found him!

Visa and Green Card!

Mr. Peyrouton helped me achieve my United State visa and green card. Now I am on the path to my citizenship. He and his staff are very knowledgeable in immigration law. They kept me and my family informed every step of the way, and they were extremely thorough throughout the process. Whenever a g...overnment official reviewed my documents he or she would comment, "Your lawyer did a very good job with your paperwork." From start to finish the process took about 10 months. Mr. Peyrouton's only took and fee after he was certain he could help me with my case. His legal fees are very reasonable. My family and I are very thankful that we had Mr. Peyrouton and his staff as our counsel. P.S. A big Thank You to Agueda, too!

Iron Man

I call him Iron Man because he kind of looks likef Tony Stark, and because he came in clutch like a superhero. We took my case to trial and he was amazing! It was Alan against everybody and he didn't back down...there were like 20 cops in the court during trial and Alan was not intimidated at all.... His memory is incredible. During his closing argument he mentioned all of the cases in NJ that were relevant to my defense and I was in shock because he was not reading from any paper. He's also the most humble lawyer I ever met. He's my lawyer for life!
