Excellent Local Attorney

After spending hours researching the available options, I decided to hire Mr. Liss as my defense attorney as he checked all the boxes: 1) He’s local to north San Diego County, 2) he runs a small practice which allows him to focus on his clients while charging a reasonable fee, and 3) he previously wo...rked in the San Diego DA’s office. During our first meeting, Mr. Liss told me exactly what I should expect given the details of my case and everything he said was 100% accurate. He took care of all of the required paper work, court appearances and negotiations with the DA’s office over the course of approximately 18 months, all for just the very reasonable fee he quoted upfront. My case was resolved exactly as Mr. Liss predicted it would be, with no surprises. I found Mr. Liss to be attentive, diligent, persistent and highly knowledgeable regarding the criminal justice system in north San Diego County. I would absolutely, without reservation, strongly recommend Mr. Liss to anyone I care about that requires legal representation in San Diego County.

Simply the best attorney out there

I was in the most scary and a horrible situation of my life, not knowing exactly who to hire to help me it was a headache I went on Google to look for an attorney and I was reading the reviews that's why decided to write one for Peter and take you through the whole process that I went through so when... you finish reading it not hiring him would seem stupid. The chargers I was facing we're very very bad and not stepping in to prison was not even an option do to the severity of the chargers , I hired peter Liss he actually took over the case from a previous attorney I had hired that didn't feel was doing much and was charging way to much Peter asked me what I wanted and was extremly straight foward with me the whole case, The day of my hearing he was so prepered and was not like any other attorney in the courtroom he was actually fighting for me I felt completely safe having him by my side, at the End I got exacly what I wanted ( No prison Time ) I would Extremely encourage everyone to hire him it would be the best decision of your life!

I recommend Peter Liss

Thanks to Peter Liss and his staff acting on my behalf for a recent driving related charge. He and his staff handled all the court filings and appearances for me. He was able to negotiate a reduced charge, which led to a significantly reduced fine. I dont know how he did it, but he fought for me and ...he knew exactly what to do. Peter was always willing to meet and to answer my questions and provide his honest non-sugar-coated advice. I dont think I could have done better, and all for a very reasonable fee. Thanks a lot Peter!

Peter Liss: Well-regarded, tenacious and very effective!

I was arrested for DUI. Peter won my DMV hearing, successfully getting DMV to set aside the suspension. I've been told it's very rare to win DMV hearings and I believe it. This was also huge as I depend on driving for work. Pursuant to the DMV decision he was able to argue for a plea deal down to a "...wet reckless." This was another major win since my fine was reduced by about $1,000, my probation period was reduced from 5 years to 3 years, and my license was left in good standing. He communicated very clearly and knowledgeably with me, all the time letting me know where my case stood. He's had my back through the entire process. If you need a good lawyer who can actually make a difference for you instead of just taking your money, Peter Liss is the man. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat, but I intend to stay out of trouble!

Excellent Lawyer

I was arrested based on an alleged comment during an argument with my girlfriend where she called 911 out of anger, not fear. The problem is that I was arrested with felony probably cause (PC422). I have never been arrested in my life and ended up spending the night in jail with $50K in bail. This wh...ole thing was crazy and thanks to Peter I finally got some peace of mind. He wrote a letter to the DA and got the case rejected before any charges were filed. Seeing the justice system from the inside was something I thought I would never do, but thank God for people like Peter Liss. He is on par or cheaper than most attorney's but probably in the top 1 or 2% in my opinion. Thank you Peter!
