Super Star

Peter Fayne is a extraordinary individual. He was hired to handle legal work for my son who was a juvenile at the time and was looking at 30 years in prison. Peter got his sentence reduced to time served and he got an early release. Whenever I needed legal advice, he always found time for me. He is a... remarkable attorney.

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.
