Courtney Marie Peterson

Courtney Petersen is a fantastic trial lawyer. I was facing several serious misdemeanor charges and one felony charge. Courtney was able to get the felony case dismissed by cross examining the states witness and proving the states evidence did not meet the legal requirements for the charges. Durin...g the trail for the misdemeanors, Courtney expertly cross examined the States witnesses, including several police officers and alleged victims. She was able to show inconsistency in the witness and victim accounts and procedural missteps of the police. She expertly questioned me on the stand and helped me to tell my version of the events. She was amazing to watch. At the end of the trial the Judge commended both attorneys on the professionalism and the knowledge of law, including the ability to reach reasoned decisions and express them with clarity. Courtney was able to secure a verdict of not guilty on 4 out 5 of the states charges. Courtney was always responsive to my attempts to contact her. I always felt like Courtney listened to me. I always felt like Courtney believed me and in my case. I would not hesitate to hire Courtney to represent me and wholeheartedly recommend her as a defense attorney.

Waste of money! Had 4 personal emergencies within one case! Have seen public defenders do better jobs! Speaks over you and gets defensive when you are seeking simple responses. Asked for flat fee and described with that was not done and had a million excuses as to why. I would not recommend her as th...ere are other attorneys who are more professional and similar in cost! If you care for your loved one, make sure they are in the right hands, and her hands are not the right ones!

I have had Courtney as my lawyer since 2017 and she has done a great job with my case and also I have never felt like she was doing the bare minimum. She goes above and beyond,she truly cares, very honest, overall she’s good at her job and I would reccomend her to the next person in need of a lawyer ...

So far, great! I emailed her early Sunday morning. It was a shot in the dark, after researching attorneys and my case being as difficult as it is, she called and was willing to help. Did I mention I'm also over 2 1/2 hours from her location. All true statements, I'm doing my best to retain Courtney t...o represent me in a system that with a over booked public defender in my area. I can't get the truth or any real help in my actual defense.
