State Bar of Nevada Board Certified Divorce Attorney specializing in complex divorce cases.

My primary objective is to understand the personal requirements of each divorce law client. I then use that understanding to custom tailor my legal representation to their unique situation and goals. I enjoy using my legal expertise to assist my clients in what are often difficult circumstances. Divorce are not governed by 9 to 5 hours. It is important to me that my clients can contact me at any time if an urgent situation develops. I provide every client with my personal cell phone number so they have unfettered access to communicate with me.

I'm a founding partner at Peters & Associates, LLP in Las Vegas, where I concentrate on helping people and businesses in Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson, Nevada with Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy, debt settlement, loan modifications, foreclosure mediations, short sales, and deeds in lieu of foreclosure.. My experience includes complex real estate law in the areas of real estate development, transactions and commercial finance. I've represented some of the largest developers in Las Vegas regarding apartment complexes, mixed-use projects, and high-rise resorts, condominiums and condominium-hotel developments. I've represented both buyers and sellers in the purchase and sale of hotels/casinos and developed/undeveloped land. Currently, I'm focusing my practice on residential and commercial loan modifications, foreclosure mediations, short sales and consumer bankruptcies.. Prior to becoming an attorney, I was a financial analyst at a large, multi-national brokerage firm.  My undergraduate education is in finance and economics.  I feel that my extensive financial background gives me a unique perspective when it comes to advising my clients on debt matters.  Whether it's helping a client save their home from foreclosure or eliminating consumer debt, I am able to advise clients on what's both financially and legally beneficial for their unique situation.
