3rd Generation Attorney in California. We all need good counsel. I care about people, and I steer them clear of the legal pitfalls in all areas of life and business. Peter D. Lemmon graduated from Thomas Aquinas College, Santa Paula in 1985 and from UOP McGeorge School of Law, Sacramento, in 1988 with honors. He represented California’s Secretary of State in his successful federal court defense of California’s term limits. He served as assistant city attorney for the cities of Fillmore, Ojai and Ventura and as special counsel for other cities, including Thousand Oaks and Santa Paula. Mr. Lemmon holds the highest peer rating of “AV” from the nationwide Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory, and is licensed to practice before all California State courts, the federal district courts for the Central and Eastern Districts, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, and the Supreme Court of the United States.
Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.
