Peter Castleberry knows how to interact with the Oregon criminal justice system. I made a few poor choices at a Strip Club one evening and found myself in jail. After a friend referred me, I contacted Peter Castleberry and after briefing him on the stituation retained him to represent me in this matt...er. He wasted no time engaging the necessary resources to get available evidence and began discussions with the other parties. His knowledge of how things work in criminal matters was key in securing a favorable result. He was able to talk with all parties to resolve the matter without a conviction. He followed up afterward to ensure the record was sealed. I feel that I was wel served and would recommend Peter without hesitation.

I was charged with menacing because of a confrontation I had with a cyclist (non-physical) who was threatening me. I threatened him back by pulling out a knife that I kept in my car for precisely such incidents. He called the cops and it was his word vs. mine. Because I had brandished the knife I was... charged and he was not. After I was processed, the next day I called Mr Castleberry. He was very professional and well-informed on case law for menacing in Oregon for first time offenders like myself. he laid out how he thought the process would go. Basically, I would probably have to settle with the victim for a agreed-upon amount of money and the charges would likely be dismissed without a trial. After the settlement was completed, that is exactly what happened and I was very satisfied with the result. I am now working with him to get my records sealed and expunged. This was a very agonizing process for me as I had never been arrested or charged with anything before this. Mr. Castleberry and his partner Emily Elison made this process a LOT easier by being very reassuring and informative about what needed to happen and when. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone facing a menacing charge or other criminal charges.

Peter helped me through my first (and hopefully last) experience with the Justice System. I was arrested on DUI, and had absolutely no idea what to do next. Peter made sure I was thoroughly prepared for each step in the court process, and made me feel comfortable enough to ask all of the questions I ...had along the way. He was on-time for every appointment and every court date, more than I can say for anyone I know that's ever had a court-appointed attorney. Peter was very worth the investment, and will be my first call if I ever find myself in a similar situation.

Pete Castleberry represented me on a DUII with a Reckless Driving charge. I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome, and the piece of mind he and Emily Elison afforded me throughout the process was invaluable. Even their user-friendly website is the very best out there, offering a wealth of candid i...nformation. I can't tell you how many times I'd be searching the internet for information on Oregon's DUII laws, the diversion process, UA's, license hearings, etc., and about 80% of the time I would find myself routed back to my own attorney's website for whatever info or advice I was searching for! Pete ensured that my charges would be dropped, my license did not get suspended, and he was always available whenever I had a question or concern. Before I walked into Pete's office I was experiencing incredible shame and anxiety…when I walked out I felt as if I had a partner, a proponent and a plan. He made a very difficult and scary situation as simple and painless as it could possibly be.

I live out of state and was involved in an incident while visiting Washington. Mr. Castleberry did an excellent job of representing me, and was able to handle this case without me having to fly all the back to Washington. His experience in working with the court and the system was top notch, and s...aved me both time and money. He made himself available to me whenever I needed to reach him, and was always willing to take time and effort to explain how the process was working. I would highly recommend him if you need an honest, affordable and reliable attorney,
