Law office of Lars Peterson

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. He walks you through the whole process with confidence and puts you at ease.
If you choose to hire him for your case, know you will be in good hands!

I have used Lars twice now, once for filing bankruptcy and another to collect on an unpaid debt that was rather large from a real estate investment company that I had invested with. Both matters have been resolved with top notch service. I wasn’t sure if I would get the money back from the company I had invested with, but Lars was able to help me and it was a success. He is extremely knowledgeable and kind but can absolutely be a bulldog when need be. I am a very very happy client.

Man, this guys gets it!
No nonsense.
He’ll tell you exactly what all the likely outcomes of your legal situation may be, so you can realistically weigh your strategy. He is careful and wise. His calm approach to negotiations make him a Rock Star whether he is at the table or in front of the judge.
I have heard a rumor that if you can do a really good German accent he might offer some kind of discount. Not sure if it’s true, my specialty is a Filipino accent. Evidently there is no discount for that particular accent, but the fees were more than reasonable and provided a huge bang-​for-​the-​buck result!
Big Thank You to Mr. Peterson.

I had a bad experience with Lars Peterson. I paid in advance for his legal services, and was told that he would get to the case right away. After two weeks I sent him a letter asking how things were going and he didn’t do anything. All he was suppose to do in the beginning was send a letter to get things started. I was looking for an apology for the set back, but he didn’t really care about the case and didn’t care that he didn’t do anything. In the end I asked for my money back and he still charged me $ 100 for doing nothing.
On a side note, read the agreement before you sign anything. I luckily did and saw that that he was trying to charge $ 500 for a set up fee. When I asked him about it he said that it was a generic agreement and then scratched it out.
My recommend is find another lawyer who will care about his client and give his best to resolve the case.

I wanted to add Mr. Peterson because I really am glad we found him. Our first attorney completely dropped the ball and missed a major deadline. This guy never really got what our case was about and didn’t seem to care. When Mr. Peterson came in he had to do so after someone who had screwed things up. He took control and had things back on track in one week. We were able to make our deadlines. He was with a large firm for years and recently left to start his own firm so he is still excited about law and passionate about the good fight. He has experience in a lot of different areas of law and he is German which means he is a hard worker and can scare people… no he is not a scary guy lol. But my point is he has good work ethics.
So now I am dealing with the ODC complaining about my first attorney trying to get our retainer back. Hopefully that gets resolved. Take it from me, if you hire an attorney and he seems to not be getting you, or rushing you or not returning your emails in a timely manner, don’t wait around until things get better. There are far better attorneys out there who aren’t taking cases to collect money from you with no intentions on working your case.
