Unfortunately, I found myself needing a lawyer. My son was being accused of something he did not do. The police arrested my son. The case was going to go to the DA so they can start prosecuting. We made bond and started to look for a lawyer to defend my son. I found Daniel Peugh through the internet.... I went to AVVO and started to look at the reviews of the lawyers available in the area. I had found a couple of lawyer that seemed to be ok. I made appointments with both of them. On the day of the appointments I found that one of the lawyers was not going to be there and I will be interviewing with one of the associates. I did not like that and decided to cancel that appointment. The other lawyer was Daniel Peugh. It is well known that no lawyer is 100% successful But Daniel has a very high success rate. He handled the interview personally. He was courteous and to the point. Once we explained the situation and showed him the affidavits that we had collected, he told us what to expect. He never promised us that he will fix the problem. He explained what he could do and the experience that he had with similar cases. He explained the possible scenarios from dropping the case to being convicted of the offense. He started to work on the case immediately. He notified us of any development on a regular basis. He was able to prove to the DA that there was no case. The DA decided not to prosecute. Now, he is working on an expunction. We are very satisfied with the work he has done for us. I will highly recommend him to anyone looking at felony charges. I hope that in the future we do not need the services of a lawyer but if we do we will use Daniel again.

I recently hired Mr. Daniel Peugh as my attorney for a very serious charge. I had a warrant for my arrest & was given good advice on how to handle it by turning myself in. Mr. Peugh notified the judge via email that I would be voluntarily turning myself in & I only spent about 6 hours in the cell b...efore I was bailed out. (I'd recommend wearing a single layer of warm clothes.) Once I was released, I met with him & more thoroughly discussed my case. He told me exactly what I needed to do to help him start building my defense. Within 3 weeks we gathered & provided enough information to the D. A.'s office that my case never even ended up going to court. Mr. Peugh emailed a copy of the Decline Letter to me. It was one of the most beautiful things I had seen in my entire life, especially considering that I was facing a third degree felony charge. Attorneys aren't cheap; I had to pay $3K and perform plenty of leg-work to get my results. He told me that at no additional attorney charge, he would help me (as long as I pay the court fees) with filing the proper papers for getting the arrest completely expunged from the records in about 3 years. I am very satisfied with my results and have NOTHING negative to say about this man.

Save your money and if possible stick with a court appointed attorney because this attorney only cares about payment and has one foot out the door once he receives a down payment and a signed contract. My case was a 2nd DWI. I refused to blow and refused blood. The only proof were the field tests th...at were video taped. When I went to visit him the first time, he seemed very competent and confident. He will win you over but he doesn't keep you updated in a timely manner. I was receiving letters from the courts or the DPS a whole week or two before he would call me to inform me what had taken place (and everyone knows the system generally takes their time sending paperwork out). We had agreed that I would be able to watch my arrest video when he received it he watched it alone and I never got to view and his response was it's bad and we're going to have to plea. That was almost 2 months after my arrest. Then I didn't hear from him for 3 months, until I had to personally go into his office ONE week before my court date to find out what was going on with my case and how we were going to proceed. He didn't even know that I had my final hearing court date until I informed him during my visit. The ADA had sent my attorney a preliminary plea bargain (who knows how long he had it) so we reviewed it. He tried hard to convince me to do 80 days jail time informing me that I would become a trustee and get 2 days for every 1 day served which would cut my time in half but what he failed to inform me was that becoming a trustee isn't guaranteed. The day of my trial he had one foot out the door because he knew I just wanted to settle the case that day. He talked with the ADA and they came up with figures for probation, jail time, and interlock device. I took that plea because I thought I was getting a bargain but when we went to finalize it in front of the judge the judge informed me that although the paperwork I signed said one thing due to the law I had to do 6 months longer on the interlock device. Obviously my attorney wasn't prepared and knowledgable about one of the portions of the law pertaining to 2nd DWI which we had discussed a couple of times so I got screwed and still ended up doing the max time for everything from probation to community service. I've been doing jail time now as part of my plea bargain and just found out that he even did my paperwork wrong. My paperwork says that I should be out on X day but he did the math wrong so now I'm not able to be released as time served for another 2 weeks. I paid this attorney over $2000 for absolutely nothing. Whatever you do don't hire this guy. He is seriously not worth it.

Mr. Peugh is currently working on a case for me and is getting good results thus far. I had another lawyer before I met Mr. Peugh who was a nightmare to work with. The other lawyer was rude, pretentious, and just an overall jerk. He made me feel like he was much too busy to take five minutes on ph...one with me to answer my questions and concerns. I just thought all lawyers were like that and I was beginning to feel very hopeless and alone in my legal situation. That was until I met Mr. Peugh. I'm so thankful I replaced my last lawyer and hired Mr. Peugh. I met him at his office one day and after talking with him for about 10 minutes, I knew that he was the type of person I wanted working for me. He is very well spoken and very bright. He is very persistent, a go-getter, and is simply determined to get results. He instantly made me feel at ease and I completely trust him with my case. I truly believe he is just and overall good person and a very hard worker. I'm always telling people what a great lawyer he is. I am so thankful that I picked up the phone and gave him a call. It was one of the best decisions I could have made.

Daniel has worked with me in regards to some technical aspects of my case and advised me on options I had as well as working around my school schedule. In addition he has been readily available to give advice as he is conveniently located right next to UNT campus and has been friendly and understand...ing throughout the process. He understood that I was a student who made a mistake rather than some mindless criminal who he treated as a paycheck which most other lawyers I have come into contact with have. He got me a reduced charge and minimum fine, and with a knowledge of the intricate DA processes nearly got my case thrown out before it was even filed. A+++. I highly recommend him to anyone in Denton or the surrounding areas.
