Most clueless lawyer I've ever met
Abusive place. Peter hangs up on you if you ask him to treat you differently and then tells the women in the office to threaten you. It is incredibly childish and unbelievable. He takes advantage of disabled people and abuses them upon the first phone call. It is terrifying, actually.
