Peter Green is ALWAYS my first phone call!!

Unfortunately over the past several years I have found myself in sticking situations and needing the help of a lawyer. Peter Green has proven himself time and time again to be an excellent criminal defense attorney. He is always my first phone call because I know I can always trust and count on him t...o not only give me the best advice but to give me and my case the full attention it deserves. His prices are more than affordable and hiring him is definitely worth every penny! I would highly recommend calling him before calling any one else!

I would recommend anyone to Peter Green. He's a great attorney and my family loves him. He got us a good outcome with taking the case to trial and we believed in him just as well he believed in my son. Once again much love he's a good guy.

Great Attorney

I'm a single father with sole custody and sole physical custody of my daughter. Peter's hard work and dedication to the case made that possible. Through the long and lengthy court proceeding, Peter was very informative and was on top of the case. The case was on going for 13 months with 26 days of t...rial. Peter worked very hard for me as I'm absolutely sure he does for all his clients. Not only is he an attorney he has a heart. If you are looking for a dedicated and very knowledgeable attorney, Peter is the guy for any case. Not only was he my attorney but he was like a friend through it all. He fights hard for your rights and listens to everything you say. I can't find, nor will there ever be any words that I can say to thank peter for what he has worked so hard on. I only hope this review can help someone else who is looking for a dedicated non judgmental great attorney on there side for any situation they are in.

A good choice!

Peter helped me with a traffic infraction I received in NY, while traveling across the country. I live in Washington, and obviously was not able to represent myself from across the country. Peter handled the whole situation well, and I am very pleased with the outcome. Thanks!

Positive review of Attorney Peter Green.

Peter Green was very helpful with my case. I wanted to apply for a certificate of relief from disabilities. This involved a case from 39 years ago that was just brought to light. All records were purged. I do not live in that area any longer. Peter was able to get the certificate and file it wit...h the appropriate legal system. I found Peter to be very professional. He was prompt in returning phone calls, honest and upfront about the status of the case. He handled the case in a timely manner.
