About Peter
Biography
I have been representing individuals, families, and small businesses since I graduated from law school in 1975. I believe that most people get confused by the legal system especially with insurance questions-- the system turns them around, nobody explains anything, and that turns them off. I want them to know their rights--that's why we're called The Know Your Rights People.
Access to justice is why I offer free consultations, and take death and injury cases on a contingent fee--which means I don't get paid until I get money for the person I represent. Unlike many attorneys, I don't represent insurance companies to avoid a conflict of interest. Also, unlike many attorneys, I charge only for costs outside of my office---many attorneys charge for postage, even phone fees--and then charge interest on that!
I went to the University of Michigan, then to Georgetown University's Law School, and have a further degree, a Masters of Law, from Temple University.
I have been in practice for over thirty five years, and have represented people from adjusters to veterinarians, whose family members have been killed or who have --through no fault of their own-- had to deal with fractures and all manner of other injuries, from many varieties of corporate and individual carelessness. Some lawyers say they only take "serious" cases--I believe that any injury that causes you limitations, pain, is serious to you. Give me a call if you have a legal question about any form of injury--if I can't help you, I'll at least try to tell you who can! And it won't cost you a dime --even the call is free--1-888-PA-LAWS-1 ()!

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.
He took the time and showed he cared, even when he didn't get paid.
Peter gave me a free consultation over the phone to set me straight on an issue that was small and not worth most attorney's time. I highly recommend Peter to anyone who needs an attorney.

Medical Malpractice
Attorney Munsing responded to my questions on AVVO. I appreciate the information he gave to me and I appreciate the fact that he took the time to respond. A lot of attorneys did not.

Professional through and through
Mr. Munsing did a stellar job attending to my family's car accident claim.

I would re...
