All charges dismissed

Peter is kind, knowledgeable, and highly professional, yet was tough as nails and assertive in dealing with a case with trumped-up charges. I would highly recommend Peter to anyone who needs aggressive, knowledgeable representation for your rights.

Honest and informed attorney

Peter is a very honest attorney and was more than familiar with the issues at play in my case. His rates are reasonable. He is responsive and an excellent attorney. I would recommend him to anyone who needed a criminal defense attorney.

Dream Team of 1=charges DISMISSED.

ANY legal trouble in Forsyth Co.---- ONLY hire a lawyer who works and lives in the Forsyth Co. Peter Zeliff was highly recommended by a very prominent Atlanta criminal/DUI attorney. My result--- all 3 charges DISMISSED. Legal misadventure happens and l felt like the world is ending. However, on...ce I spoke to Peter Zeliff at the office, I knew that everything was going to be A OK. Mr. Zeliff’s demeanor- always cool, calm and collected. Prior to leaving his office, he already had THE plan and a plan B of how to approach the case. This took a lot of stress off the shoulders. He was always available to answer any questions I had, and explained the legal processes in a manner that was easy to understand. He has been practicing law in Forsyth co for many years and is very respected by his peers, even the officers and legal opponents. He is considered to be one of the most aggressive lawyers and the one who doesn’t like to lose. The ingredients of a Winning Team- knowledge, drive to Win, patience, Mr. Zeliff has it all. The office staff is very friendly and his assistant Robin made sure I was updated with new information. She always called with court date reminders and if there have been any changes with the case. The fee was VERY reasonable and definitely worth every penny. Going back to my case, most other lawyers will just get you to plead to a deal. Well, all 3 charges in my case were dismissed. The dismissal was so unique that the court clerk did not know how to write up the paperwork, the officers, who have worked in the FOCO, have never heard of the dismissal ending like that either. The results speak for themselves!

Awesome Lawyer

Peter recently defended our daughter against a DUI charge in a jury trial in Cobb County. Peter's preparation, professionalism, and knowledge of DUI law and associated processes was extraordinary. He was always available when we called him and he gave honest, solid, advice. It was truly amazing to... watch him poke holes in the State's case during his cross-examination of State witnesses. Our daughter is a single mother of 3 small children and had been wrongly accused. Having her going to jail would have been devastating on her and the children. We thank God every day for Peter for successfully defending our daughter and would highly recommend this awesome legal expert and consummate professional to anyone needing an attorney who will go the extra mile. Thanks, Peter.

Got my DUI Dropped and Protected my Freedom!

I ran into some Legal Issues late 2014, and found myself in desperate need of a strong Defense. I eventually came in contact with Peter Zeliff, and right out the gate could tell he was an experienced professional. He carefully analyzed my 2 cases, and responded personally to all of my concerns. Zelif...f stands firm in the court room, and I believe truly cared about my well-being as his client. My DUI charges were completely dropped, and he also landed me an excellent deal in a separate case. I owe my freedom to his knowledge and abilities, and would recommend his service to my friends and family.
