Go out of town for a lawyer.

All throughout my case I never felt that I had a good lawyer. I was lied to and thought to be a fool. Mr. Peterson came to represent me, and I asked about a prior case in another County and he pretended like he made a phone call to the other office where I had the case at to seem like he had a good r...elationship with them when she really didn't and he thought I was stupid enough to believe it. Then he tells me that I can please out for 6 years if I didn't I would go to trial. So I plead out and got to the courthouse and the judge throws ten years at me like it was bread to ducks. Then mr. Peterson said something to me in the interview that we had alone he got upset with me because I kept asking him about other cases and he yelled that I was a one-man Wrecking Crew who was out there causing havoc and in the instance I had a fall partner which was already should have let me know something was up. I would suggest going out of town to get representation, they all work together, the DA, Attorneys, all of them local golf buddies. Stay out of town with representation. I guess because he was court appointed he really didn't care.

Sometimes good people make mistakes, and I am there to help them. Sometimes good people are angry at their choices and choose to place blame elsewhere, which is the easiest thing to do. I am sorry this person has had a rough time and is angry at his or her choices. I forgive him or her for bearing false witness. I hope they can find peace in their life.

Five Stars for Scott Peterson ATTORNEY AT LAW

I highly recommend Mr. Peterson for any criminal defense representation based on previous experience! Mr. Peterson didn't miss a beat in regards to the cases I've been involved in. He was honest, fair, and 100% correct through the entire process. He was thorough and very professional. The most impr...essive charachter would be his determination to fight for my rights of due process and fair representstion! He strongly consulted with the opposing parties on fair offers and fought for me when an unfair offer was presented! He addressed all issues and handled my legal needs to my complete satisfaction!! If one if my loved ones ever found theirselves in trouble, without a doubt, Mr. Peterson would be the first person I would call!!!

Scott was very knowledgeable and professional. His acute sense of the facts and the overall truth in the case was evident and he was able to convey that to the prosecutor and formulate a very positive outcome in my case. Without his help I feel that I would have had a very negative outcome in this c...ase and I am very satisfied that I chose him to represent me in this case. I will definitely refer to anyone else I know in the future.
