I highly recommend Daniel Peugh if you are looking for a criminal attorney in Denton County. Mr. Peugh was very professional and took excellent care of us. He stayed on top of the case and kept us informed along the way. I never had to worry about what was going on with the case. He definitely wen...t over and above and worked out the best deal. The judge in the case told us he was in his office every day trying to work something out. He really cares about his client and what happens with them. His paralegal, Cara, was also very professional with quick response times. I don’t think the end result would have turned out as well with a different attorney.

I hired Mr. Peugh for the second time as my defense attorney for a DWI. He and his assistant were always prompt with email, providing me information, and answering my questions. Mr. Peugh had updated info and knowledge of the law. I feel that Mr. Peugh gave me realistic advice regarding my case and f...ought to get me the best case scenario possible based on the facts. I hope to never need an attorney again, but Mr. Peugh would be my first choice.

My daughter was accused of drug possession but the drugs were not hers. Unfortunately, she was with the person who had the drugs. Mr. Peugh charged us $3500 and said that he could have her record expunged. She worked hard to pay off the extra court fees and fines and did community service only to fin...d that she now has a felony record. When questioned, Mr. Peugh informed us that she will need to find a criminal defense attorney and pay extra to have her record expunged. He claims that he informed her of this. But, when I originally consulted him, he never mentioned that the $3500, court fees and community service would not give us the final goal. My daughter gave him the authority to share information with me but, apparently, he did not share this extra information. To add fuel to the fire, when I called to ask about this situation, his secretary told him, in a very offensive voice, "Now, it's the mother." I never write reviews, especially not bad ones. However, I feel like he took advantage of us during a very stressful time. I'm sure that legally he has every i dotted and every t crossed, but that doesn't make it right. I hope this never happens to anyone else.

In 2015, I had found myself arrested and charged with three third degree felony charges for alleged domestic violence. This was a very horrific and scary time in my life as I had never been arrested or had any convictions ever. The consequences of being convicted for these types of crimes are life cr...ippling. I knew that I had to seek a strong and experienced attorney for this matter. I shopped around not really knowing who to hire. By the grace of God, I met with Daniel Peugh of the Peugh Law Firm. In my attorney shopping, Dan's name continued to come up from his peers regarded as the very best. When I met with Dan, I found him to be confident, experienced and well versed and connected in the Denton County court system. Dan listened and provided all the options and scenarios to help me understand what to expect and then created a strategy that evolved based on the dynamics of the case. After reviewing all my options, I made the decision to go "trial by jury" as I knew that I was not guilty and was not willing to settle for a plea bargain with the state. There was much risk associated with this decision as you are essentially putting your life's fate into 6 people with drivers licences. My trial did not occur until approximately 9 Months following the arrest. In the interim, Dan was able to get the three 3rd degree charges reduced to misdemeanor A's which although not as severe as 3rd degree felony charges, they are still very serious. When the trial finally arrived, I was blown away with Dan's command, confidence and experience in the court room -from strategically selecting the jury to his ability to minimize the DA's false arguments, evidence and accusations. The end result, after 9 long months leading up to the trial and two intense days in the court room, the jury found me, "Not Guilty" on all charges and I was completely acquitted. Dan Peugh is a true professional. His strong presence, skill and expertise, brought out the real truth in a way that the jury could understand and make a very important and right decision and I got my life back. I would very strongly recommend Dan Peugh and the Peugh Law Firm for anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation - A highly political legal system that unfortunately does not seem to care if you are innocent. They are only interested in guilty convictions with no regard to how a person's life and family can be unjustly ruined. Thank you Dan. My family and I are forever grateful for your services.
