Pete Wifler joined Salvi, Salvi & Wifler, P.C. as partner in 1990. He has earned an exemplary reputation based on his expertise in the areas of family law and small business/corporate matters.
Upon graduating from John Marshall Law School with High Distinction Honors in 1987, Pete joined the Chicago law firm of Ungaretti & Harris and practiced there until he joined Salvi, Salvi & Wifler. Prior to law school, Pete worked as a CPA for Ernest & Young. He has been successful in utilizing his CPA background to assist his clients on financial issues affecting their legal needs.

If a fair settlement cannot be reached, however, he is prepared to seek a court resolution when necessary.
