Peter enjoyed his time serving his clients at one of the most prestigious law firms in Charleston, and learned a great deal from some of the finest lawyers in the region.

Peter earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin and a law degree from the Charleston School of Law. While a law student, Peter performed an astonishing 1,550 hours of pro bono public service, by far the most of any Charleston Law student in the school’s history. Peter’s hard work and dedicated service were recognized by the school’s dean and profiled in a feature article by the Charleston Post & Courier.
Prior to becoming a trial lawyer, Peter enjoyed a successful 14-year career as an on-air radio DJ at various radio stations throughout the country. It was an exciting career, which gave him the opportunity to work with the public, and what Peter found to be the most rewarding part of the job. When Peter initiated a station-sponsored fundraiser for an eleven year old girl in need of an organ transplant, he decided he wanted to make a career out of helping others, and became a trial lawyer.

Untrustworthy, Stay Away
This lawyer accepted my case and then decided to drop it when he moved firms. He never bothering to contact me about his move or his decision to drop my case. When I called to follow-up he proceeded to tell me I did not have a strong case, which was the opposite of what was said before he decided to ...
Many times at the onset of an employment/wrongful termination case, in a strong effort to get the lawyer to take the case, the client tells the lawyer his/her version of the story most favorable to him/her. The client omits vital information that might make the lawyer decline representation. In those circumstances, because the lawyer wishes to help the client, the lawyer takes on the case. Once the lawyer does his/her due diligence & later learns that the case is no longer viable because of the client's misrepresentations, the lawyer then must cease representation. This is what transpired in your case. While I'm sorry that you were not happy with the outcome of your representation, perhaps you should consider that the next time you contact a lawyer, you tell him/her the whole truth so that the lawyer may make a fully informed decision about undertaking representation. As to your assertion that you were not contacted when I left Joye Law Firm (a firm which one may Google & read over one dozen favorable reviews about me), that, too, is untrue. All clients of mine whom I represented at Joye Law Firm were contacted both by Joye Law Firm & by me, personally. Those clients for whom I continued representation at my present firm have all seen their cases conclude with favorable results.
"Peter and I have worked together on several cases. He is compassionate and goes above and beyond to represent his clients. He truly cares about his clients and often stays in touch with them long after his representation has ended. I would recommend Peter for any employment or personal injury case without hesitation."
"Peter is an accomplished trial attorney and a worthy, yet collegial adversary. I have tried and case with Peter and he was a zealous advocate for his client throughout the proceedings. I would recommend friends and family members to Peter as an attorney."
