Great attorney

Mr.Boehm is a great workers comp lawyer and a diligent lawyer as whole. He took care of my injury case. He provided detailed information about my case, updated me on every steps he took. He fought for my rights. He also made himself available for questions and concerns regarding my case. He did not s...ee me as a client, but as a person who needed his assistance. I will recommend him over and over to anyone who is in need of his service. He is very diligent and professional. Thank you Mr.Boehm.

Superb

I've work with four different attorneys for various reasons in my lifetime. None of them compared to Peter Harry Boehm at all. First of all he's definitely a people's person. He's the first attorney that I've had that actually cared about my suffering. I didn't feel like just another client at all, I... felt as though I was a close friend. We had more conversations than I could have ever anticipated. He's very seasoned and knowledgable about the laws concerning workers compensation. Everything he told me was spot on, I guess I can call him "the guru". This was the best legal representation I've ever had. There isn't another worker's compensation attorney that I'd ever hire or refer. Peter is probably the best in the business. And he's just an overall great guy and a real humanitarian.

Great attorney

Mr. Boehm was a godsend, he helped guide me through a workers compensation case with a company that is notoriously bad for employees who have a W/C case . He got me everything he was able to . Thank you again

  • 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.
