Brilliant, dedicated, straight shooter, client-friendly who I trust!

I've hired Peter on many occasions... from trust, and estate planning, lease agreements, conflict resolution and Incorporation. I find him to have a common sense approach. You can always count on him to be a straight shooter and trust that he will seek the best possible resolution for the situation a...t hand. Peter is very community oriented and is sensitive to client's budget. I have to say he has a brilliant mind and has yet ceased to amaze me. There is also a trust factor that Peter has with me. I know I can trust the hours that I'm billed, without hesitation. Over the years of working with Peter, I have witnessed his dedication and genuine concern for whatever situation I present to him. He has great realistic feedback and I appreciate him dearly. My successful business is due in part to Peter's excellent advice and guidance. I highly recommend his services.

Litigation lawyer | Apr 19

Relationship: Co-worker

"Peter has been practicing law for several years and has practiced in virtually every area of law. He uses his diverse background to find creative solutions to legal problems and has a unique understanding of practical legal procedure. He goes out of his way to minimize his clients fees by using his experience to decide what tasks are necessary and what tasks are not necessary. Even though his hourly rates are in line with what other attorneys of his experience charge, the total fees often amount to less. He has solid oral advocacy skills and can most of the time provide an answer to his client's questions on the spot."

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.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
