Peter has established a great reputation in the legal community. That reputation has been built from a great knowledge of the law in conjunction with wisdom and patience in walking people through how best to resolve their financial situation. You will not find a better attorney to help you through tough financial times.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I met Peter Fear as opposing counsel in a trial and he left a lasting impression: diligent, congenial, yet zealous in advocating for his client and their rights. Since that time I have sent dozens of clients to his office as he is very talented in bankruptcy matters. His specialization has become more and more focused, and for larger bankruptcy matters I note that my clients consistently return with enthusiastic reports about Peter's straight-forward, intelligent and careful look at not only the obvious options, but some of the nuances that many other practitioners would likely miss. I know of (and in some matters have worked with) the top 5 bankruptcy attorneys in Fresno, and Peter is undoubtedly my favorite of these 5.

Peter is quite simply the foremost authority on bankruptcy I know. In addition to that, Peter is a great resource for fellow attorneys not only for his knowledge of the law, but for his savvy marketing tactics. I highly respect and admire Peter, and suggest him for anyone looking into bankruptcy relief.

Peter is a leader in the practice of bankruptcy law.
