Best of the Best!

Peter is excellent! He is not only qualified, smart and effective, he is efficient and easy to work with. I have worked with many lawyers in the past, and I will continue to bring my business to Peter as I feel very comfortable working with him and communicating my needs. He helped me retrieve funds ...due to me by an embezzling real estate agent and was diligent in following up the case until it concluded. You can't go wrong in hiring him!

A true professional, amazing client service

Pete is one of the most attentive professionals I have had the pleasure of working with. He was instrumental in helping me get my business up and running during the business creation process (LLC vs S-Corp?, when to ask for Equity vs. Cash, etc.) If he didn't know the answer, he used his resources an...d network to find out. I never doubt he has my best interest at heart and appreciate his attention to detail.

Review if Peter Henry Shenkin

At first I was using Mr. Shenkin to consult me on a rental agreement that the landlord had taken me to court for back rent and damages to apt.. I was on the lease but never lived there and it was a one year lease. The court did rule I was responsible for those cost along with the other signer on th...e lease. Then the landlord wanted more or he said he would take me back to court for cost that happen after the judgement. Mr Shenkin felt the landlord was just trying to bully me with threats and had no case. So I hired Mr. Shenkin to write a letter and state item by item my legal status as it related to the landlords reasoning for each item. The letter stated basically that I owed nothing because the landlord had not case and Mr. Shenkin explain why to each item. I never heard from the landlord agian after he recieved the letter. GREAT WORK AND THANK YOU MR. SHENKIN

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.
