In Good Hands

Peter was able to take a difficult family situation and make it a pleasurable experience. I took my parents to him for Estate Planning. They were apprehensive and anxious about the process. Peter was able to put them at ease and handled my family with the skill of a family counselor. Our entire fa...mily felt like we were in good hands. Peter's professionalism, knowledge of the law and warm personality made our experience stress free. I would highly recommend Peter Reiss to anyone in need of a great "Estate Planning" lawyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
