Excellent Attorney

Mr. Sartes is an extremely skilled and I highly recommend him. He and his staff kept my husband and I informed and explained all of our options every step of the way. He went way above and beyond to help us and we are so grateful. I have no doubt he was the best possible attorney we could have hir...ed and will continue to use him in the future if needed.

In my experience, the use of an attorney has always carried a negative situation. Mr Sartes was able to get me the most favorable outcome that I could have ever expected. He was always available to discuss the case and was very well versed on the explanations.

Highly Respected Attorney.

Mr. Sartes was very knowledgeable in his field, and took the time to make sure I both understood what was going on, and then to keep me informed on the progress of the issue. I will both recommend and continue to use his services when needed.

"I highly endorse this lawyer. Moreover, I feel very comfortable in saying that Peter's 10 Rating on Avvo and AV (Preeminent) Highest Rating on Martindale.com, do not even scratch the surface of being indicative of Peter’s true talents, legal and litigation smarts, and his overall effectiveness as a lawyer. Peter loves the law and he has a deep rooted drive and need to win. God forbid, if any close family member of mine were in significant criminal related trouble; my first recommendation would be for them to call Peter, and to do so as quickly as possible!"

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.
