Great law firm. Peter was amazing and the office staff were super supportive. They were easily reachable and returned calls quickly. They were honest and answered the many questions I had. Would highly recommend them!

This review is from an actual former client of Peters Law Firm. My intention with this review is to expose the truth and, most importantly, protect the next consumer of legal services from making a terrible choice in hiring Peters Law Firm.Do NOT EVER hire this law firm. Attorney William "Bill" Peters is a swindler and a hack. I gave Attorney Peters $16,000 over the course of 2020 to handle a case for me (he asked for $10,000 on 10-19-2020 in an engagement letter and then later said he needs more).After I gathered discovery / evidence that he asked me to gather and also paid $3500 to an expert attorney and CPA witness, Attorney Peters did NOTHING with all of the information submitted to him. He never submitted anything to Lackawanna County (evidenced by a motion for reciprocal discovery filed by ADA on 9-10-2021) or even spoke to the ADA on the case.Furthermore, when I asked Attorney Peters to please submit all discovery to the ADA, he refused to and said that he wants to see the ADA "...fumble at trial...". Then he proceeded to tell me that the initial retainer was "...exhausted..." and asked me for an additional $19,000 to prepare and proceed at trial. The expert witness asked for an additional $15,000. I was quoted $30,000 to $35,000 maximum on this matter. Simple math shows I would have been at $53,500 which is WAY over what was quoted.The disgusting part is the discovery / evidence proves beyond a doubt that the charges are bogus and the case should be dismissed by the Lackawanna County DA's office (if they actually would look at the case).Upon granting of Attorney Peters' motion to withdraw, he proceeded to tell the judge on the case that he is refunding $4000. How was his retainer "exhausted" previously, yet he refunded me 25% of the $16,000? I then proceeded to ask multiple times on email, text and phone calls for an accounting of his firm's fees and billable hours as per the firm's engagement letter and I received no response and no accounting. I finally received a check for $4000 of the $16,000 after almost 4 weeks.There are actual honorable law firms out there that do what they say they are going to do and actually work for their client's best interest like The Munley Law Firm 570-865-4699 and like Attorney Paul Walker of Scranton 570-344-2355 and many others.Do yourself and your hard-earned money a favor, and NEVER hire Peters Law Firm. Feel free to message me if you would like to hear more. I hope this review saves at least one individual (or more) from making a terrible decision to hire this firm.

The absolute best attorney! I couldnt be happier with the outcome of my case . I had three charges and he was able to get me a suspended sentence and a small fine my first visit at court . Bill makes you feel like family and doesnt treat you like youre just another client . I truly felt like he cared and would do the absolute best job that he could do .
