Strongly recommend

I have known Peter for over 20 years and worked on a number of cases together. He is one of the smartest and most resourceful people I know. He is also extremely creative and able to look at an issue from multiple angles. Peter has gotten excellent results for clients in multiple states, through both... trial and negotiation. I highly recommend Peter and his team.

Good Lawyer, Good Decision

After an injury, I waded into the depths of personal injury and insurance law. Then, it quickly dawned on me just how little I knew about this world and I decided to hire Peter. This was a decision that paid dividends. Peter demonstrated great knowledge of not just the law, but was able to clearly co...mmunicate next steps to myself, answering all of my questions. At the end, I was very satisfied with my experience and decision to hire Peter.

Stellar Bike Law Advocates

Peter and Rachael are clearly the best bike law advocates in the country. They fought hard for justice and renumeration for our daughter after she was hit by a distracted driver. They are bright, compassionate and informed.

Top level legal representation

From start to finish (even after finish), the team at Wilborn Law handled my case with the utmost care and professionalism. They were attentive, made me feel heard and cared for, and provided exceptional legal counsel and service. The human aspect was phenomenal; I was not just a name in the client... book - I truly felt like the team was invested in me and in securing the best possible outcome (which they did).

Highly recommended!

This law firm handled everything with ease after I was struck by a vehicle on my bicycle. Highly recommended as they were professional every step of the way and made the process very easy for me with excellent communication.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Peter is a leader in the area of personal injury law. There is probably no lawyer anywhere in the country who has thought more about, or been more successful on behalf of, injured cyclists. If I needed a lawyer on a injury claim in his area I would call on Peter. I endorse him without any reservation. Heck, I would send my mom to him if she needed a lawyer."

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.
