About Peter
Biography
Peter has been a trial attorney helping people who have been victimized and injured since 1996. Prior to coming to Morgan & Morgan, Peter was a Georgia state prosecutor, in both metropolitan and rural areas, where he had the opportunity to try many complex cases. As a dedicated prosecutor, Peter specialized in crimes against children and special victims offenses, heading the Crimes Against Children Unit in DeKalb County and establishing the Special Victims Unit in Walton and Newton Counties.
Peter brings his unique experience and his passion for justice with him to Morgan & Morgan, where he focuses on representing individuals who have been injured at work or by the negligent or intentional acts of others, including wrongful death, motor vehicle accidents, premises liability (slip & fall), and the victims of sexual abuse and child exploitation.
