Very professional and knowledgeable. Always returned my phone calls promptly and all consultation was free. Great experience!

Great service and great representative!

The importance of having an expert is immeasurable. After reviewing Peter Depew’s website and a phone interview there was no doubt in my mind he had all the qualities I was looking for in a lawyer. I immediately felt comfortable corresponding. His education, military background and down to earth personality makes him an excellent choice. He gives a realistic time frame and is always one step ahead, alleviating stress along the way. He follows up and follows through. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Peter Depew for any legal needs.

Peter Depew is extremely efficient and professional. He was responsive to my phone calls and always available to answer questions.

Good guy very informative and respectful he took alot of stress off my shoulder.

Peter was fantastic to work with and had a great balance of being realistic and empathetic. Peter took on my case and was able to stop the DA from filing so It never even went to court. Peter was extremely communicative and was able to answer the hundreds of "what if" questions I had when navigating all the legal information.

Peter was also transparent with me and helped ease my nerves when dealing with my case. I never thought I'd ever have to hire a lawyer to begin with but when life threw me a curveball, hiring Peter was the best decision I made.

Mr. Dupew is true professional. The first time I spoke to him about my situation, I knew exactly what to expect(both upside and downside) which gave me that little piece of mind to let me focus on the events in my life, such as work, family, etc. He is a clear communicator, does what he says he will do and responsive to my questions.

I do not write reviews nor do I make recommendations to others, but I am making an exception here. If anyone has a legal issue in SLO county, the first call I would make would be to Peter Dupew.

They only represent rich people

Extremely helpful, I called to get the free consultation and peter was very friendly. so I decided to go through with the process to get my case taken care of. Very helpful with all of my questions. 12/10 would recommend him to fight for your case.

Peter Depew is absolutely amazing! He is experienced and knows the local DA’s, and judges in San Luis Obispo. He’s smart, proactive and he will attack your case aggressively. He is responsive and approachable when it comes to communication. Charges fairly. In addition, he genuinely cares about his clients and approaches each case in a non-judgmental way. You want him on your team. Very good for military members. If you are having legal challenges, don’t hesitate. Call Pete!

Peter Depew is an amazing lawyer. More importantly, he is a genuine, caring, down to earth, honest man. Prior to hiring Peter, I spoke with a few other lawyers in town, since there was only a handful who handled Pardon requests. However, after initial contact with Peter over the phone, I immediately knew he was the lawyer I wanted and needed to help me with my legal burden. He was both professional and empathetic during the course of our consultation. Immediately after hanging up with me, he went to the courthouse to review my case file. He then called me back within a half hour and walked me through the entire process, step by step. He was very well organized, knowledgeable, and passionate. He always returned my calls and texts promptly when I had questions or concerns. Through the whole two-year process, he kept me informed of any and all progress in my case, which gave me a sense of trust and relief. I was one of seven people to receive a pardon from Governor Newsom, and only the second person in San Luis Obispo to ever receive a full Governor’s Pardon. If you have legal concerns, trust me you want Peter Depew on your side. My name is Laurie Gardner, and I highly recommend Peter Depew for all your legal needs.

Pete is an awesome lawyer, and more importantly, a truly nice guy. I had been represented by a public defender in SLO for 9 months, and had gotten nowhere with the District Attorney. I hired Pete the day before my trial setting conference. He attended the conference for me on short notice, met with the DA and the judge, and negotiated the deal that I had been seeking all along. It was a great result for me personally, but it was also a just and fair result which served the interests of all parties. As a prior Officer in the United States Army, Pete has integrity, and I appreciate that quality in a person whenever I come across it. I can't thank him enough for his advocacy and for his friendship.

If you’re looking for lawyer. A good one. Someone to fight for your side I highly recommend Peter Depew.
I had a great experience with Mr. Depew he was caring and so professional he did a excellent job handling my case. I was very satisfied with the outcome.

Peter Depew is excellent. I found myself in trouble while visiting SLO from where I live, 6 hours away. I had no idea where to turn since I didn’t live in the area. So, based on the positive reviews for the Law Offices of Peter Depew, I figured that I should at least call for an over-the-phone consultation and hope that I could get a “feel” for the services that he would provide. Boy, the reviews were correct. He treated me like a person and didn’t look down at me. We spoke of strategy and possible outcomes, but the whole time he was realistic and informative. We agreed on the terms and I hired him.
Throughout the course of my court dates, and because of the nature of my charges, he solely represented me without requiring me to make the 6-hour trip to SLO. He kept me informed all of the way via text, email, and phone and I was never left wondering what was happening. He explained his decisions and strategies so that I felt like we were a team versus him just going to bat for me. In the end, a deal was made with the prosecution that was too good to be true, let alone too good to pass up.
I feel as though we won my case however even if my outcome wasn’t as good, my review of the Law Offices of Peter Depew would be the same. Mr. Depew was earnest, helpful, caring, sincere and fair. Not traits that you would normally state about an attorney. In a time that was pretty scary to me, he gave me confidence that I would get the fairest treatment and outcome possible. Thank you Peter Depew.

Mr. Depew: Professional, compassionate, and a great communicator. Very organized and detailed with a case that implicated factors that could easily have a unfavorable outcome and a nightmare for client and family. He explained, walked us through the process and asked us to be patient, legal cases can take long to resolve. The future of a young individual placed on a lawyers hands, we trusted him, the outcome was 100% better than expected, he delivered way more than he promised. I highly recommend Mr. Depew, if you ever have to deal with any legal matters, he is very knowledgeable and takes pride on his work, he delivers!

Peter was great to deal with! I had a case in California that was never fully handled 15 years prior. He assured me he would do his best to get this case dismissed. He followed up very well after every court visit. I was glad to have this finally resolved and put to rest. I had called several other lawyers prior about this case but am glad I went with him!! Peter is very professional and displayed great empathy with my situation. Thank you sir!

I contacted Mr. Depew rather frantic with questions and concerns regarding my situation and even over the phone he was of great help before we even met. I immediately felt a sense of relief and knew he'd be a great lawyer to have on my side. He was able to meet with me much quicker then I'd expected and was prepared just from the little I told him over the phone. The confidence he has in his line of work and knowledge he has gave me a great deal of hope in a very stressful time. He was realistic with what he could do with my case and delivered accordingly. He saved my nursing license and I am grateful. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a criminal defense lawyer.

If you are looking for a darn good attorney, I suggest you contact Mr. Depew. I am not local not needed some help for my sister. I hired Mr. Depew. Mr. Depew went above and beyond to help settle the case, with a fair resolution. Mr. Depew could have settled the case with an "easy" solution, but he refused to do so, wanting the resolution to be fair in light of the circumstances. Hats off to Peter Depew for spending much more of his time on this case in the interest of his client not himself!! I believe Mr. Depew is an superior choice and appreciate all his efforts. Thanks again Peter!!

Mr. Depew took on our case with no background of what the case was about, he never questioned whether or not it was true or false. He put together a good defense and proved that we should have never been there to begin with. He is very knowledgeable with the laws as well as the process, if it was not for him and his efforts we would have went thru hell to get out of trouble for being falsely accused. Thanks to Mr Depew the case was dismissed and life is great. Mr. Depew we thank you for your hard work and for your service for thus country. If we are ever in a situation again you will be our first call.

Peter is truly the best attorney in slo.... he knows his business and he knows the courtroom.... thank you Peter you saved me from doing 3 years in prison...cant thank you enough....

It's hard to find words to describe Peter Depew. The man seems to transcend categorization, which as an attorney strikes me as a very very good thing.

Peter's uniquely compassionate presence puts people at ease and makes them feel that they have found someone who will truly champion their cause. My consultations with him have been incredibly helpful and surprisingly human. That's the highest praise you can give a legal professional, isn't it?

I met Peter Depew years ago when he was working with juvenile offenders in a volunteer capacity. He has a heart for the criminally accused and believes firmly in helping them get another chance. Peter sees past the bad choices people make and sees the good in them.

This was the first time I ever contacted a lawyer. I was very skeptical at first and was not going to at first so would toss away all the offers i received in the mail for DUI lawyers. It was not until noticed one from the office of Peter Depew, and noticed he was a United States Veteran. Having worked with veterans for close to 10 years i decided to give him a call. My voice was shaken as I expressed my situation and how scared I was yet he was calm and reassured me he would help me in any way possible. I knew then that Mr. Depew was the choice for me. he would regularly text me updates about the case and about the court date and even GAVE ME A RIDE to my court case that was almost 3 hours away. In my experience Peter Depew is one of the finest professionals in the San Luis Obispo County area.
If you are unfortunate enough to make a horrible decision like i did with the law, make it up by making the BEST decision and hiring Peter Depew. He WILL fight for you and offers very affordable payment plans.

Peter Depew seems to have great rapport with every client I have seen him interact with - and Peter has the legal knowledge and aggressive attitude to effectively advance their interests. He is a very skilled attorney.
