About Lars

Learn Lars’s areas of practice.

I was born and raised in Germany and relocated to Hawai’i in 1999. After graduating from the University of Konstanz School of Law in 1997 and completing the mandatory two-year clerkship, I obtained my German juris doctor degree. After relocating to Hawai'i, I first attended the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa, then the University of Cincinnati College of Law, where I was awarded the American Bankruptcy Institute Certificate of Excellence in Bankruptcy and received my U.S. juris doctor degree in 2005.

Very professional and knowledgeable!!!
I hired Mr. Peterson for my bankruptcy. I was extremely pleased by the professionalism in the office. They accommodated my children which made me even more comfortable with them. I definitely will hire him again and reefer Mr. Peterson to my friends and family! Thank you so much for all your help!!!

Awesome!
Lars and Tammy are efficient professionals. I just called to enquire and they took us in for a free consultation the same day even after their usual office hours. Lars is non-judgemental and he makes you feel better about the whole situation. We walked in his office feeling like its the end of the world and walked out filled with hopes. He not only got our debts discharged, he also removed a lien on our property. I hope none of my friends and family would need his service, but if someone I know ever needs a bankruptcy attorney, I will definitely recommend Lars.

Yes, I would hire Lars again!
Let's hope I never need to claim bankruptcy again, but, if I did, he would be the guy I would call. He is kind, informative, helpful, knows his stuff and has a great staff. He has a charming personality and really has your best interest at heart. If you choose to hire him for your case, know you will be in good hands!
