Why Hire Peter?

1. ​Success in the Biggest Cases​

Peter has gotten several major felony cases dismissed. With a client who was facing a 5 year mandatory minimum sentence for illegally possessing a firearm, Peter challenged the warrantless search of his car as being in violation of the client’s constitutional rights.

The case was dismissed outright. With another client who was accused of 1st degree criminal sexual conduct, the case was dismissed before the case ever went to trial. Peter negotiated a 2nd degree murder case with a presumptive 25 year sentence down to a 4 year sentence. You want Peter defending you if you are facing serious charges.

2. Trained for the Serious Cases

All lawyers have graduated from law school. But not every lawyer continues to vigorously pursue the best education in their area of law. Peter was trained at the nation’s best seminar on defending drug crimes in Las Vegas, NV. Peter has a certificate in death investigation from North Dakota University.

He’s also received training from the Death Investigator Training Academy on the underlying science in murder investigations. Peter was trained at the State’s best seminar on litigating gun crimes. When facing the most serious charges, you want an attorney trained in those areas of the law.

​3. Empathy

​”Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done.” -Bryan Stevenson Whether you did something really bad or you were falsely accused, I’m going to treat you the same. You’re not a criminal, you’re a human being. The police, the prosecutor, and even the judge may treat you like a criminal. But I will not. Good people can find themselves in some tricky situations. And the case will be about putting you in the best position possible going forward.
