I spoke to the attorneys about my case during a free consultation, they made me feel like I…read moremattered, that I was being heard, and made me feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable and unforeseen future/situation. They were honest and gave me different options; how court would go, and if it were to be different to call them immediately since the day of my court hearing one of them would be in court that day and would represent me ASAP! I felt very confident after this call and they took the time to hear me out, and just listen honestly. I didn't feel like I pressured to hire them or start anything financially, which was great since these things can be stressful. This is my first time ever dealing with situation like this and I am very grateful for all the time, questions and advice they helped me with. Their services were of high value and honesty.

Peter, I owe you an apology. My review should of been written MANY months ago. I got caught up in…read morethe exhilaration of my BF's case being dropped, the pandemic and just life itself. Peter Depew is THE BEST ATTORNEY in SLO and Universal. I say this from the bottom of my heart. His retainer was 1/10th less, was one 0 less than the cost of what 3 other attorneys required. Peter was patient and listened to what I felt was the route we should pursue for his legal defense. Other attorneys and even my BF didn't think this was possible, the one charged, did not believe that he would be granted a suppression hearing, nevertheless win the suppression hearing. I DID, PETER DID When this "situation" occurred, which was that a hotel employee called the police on me (female) for trying to check in at the hotel with an expired drivers license during the pandemic. We were driving up and down the coast for my birthday, from Southern California. My birthday is August 8th and we went to check into this particular hotel August 14th. Now mind you, we have a runny stayed in several hotels since my drivers license technically expired but because of the pandemic all expiration dates on expired drivers licenses were extended until December 31, 2021. The front desk person said, and a very silly town, that he can check me in because my drivers license was expired and long story short I thought he was joking and I was very tired and I said come on please check me in and he said if I don't leave he'll call the police. So I said OK call the police, I figured they would help me out. I figured the policeman will ask the clerk what's wrong and the police officer within tell the clerk OK all drivers licenses are extended through the end of the year on her drivers license and it's OK to check her in it's considered valid. The officer that came into the lobby approached me very aggressively, asking me, you have a fake ID? My reply to him was, fake ID? I have no idea what you're talking about. So I gave him my drivers license he runs it he sees that everything's OK with my drivers license and he just says let's see what's going on outside with your boyfriend. I'm thinking why is anyone outside with my boyfriend, he's just sitting in the car waiting for my stubborn ass to come outside. The police decided that they had probable cause to have him step outside of his car and search his car. I forgot what the exact charges were, all I can tell you is they weren't good. Besides me being shocked that searched his car, while I stood there dummified, I was doubly shocked with what they charged him with. He's back on track now, thank g_d, all good. Back to how amazingly, awesome Peter Depew is. So like the other three attorneys that I emailed, Peter called us, we explained the situation, I presented the facts that I felt established that my BF was illegally searched. I asked Peter if he would file for the evidence to be suppressed. Unlike the other attorneys, who were the seasoned attorneys, who thought I was NUTS, Peter said, "Helene, If everything you're telling me is accurate and truthful then he has a good case and yes I will file for a suppression hearing. The other attorneys basically said, listen what are you telling us doesn't make any sense and you probably don't have all the information. Even if what you're saying is true, the likelihood of being granted the evidence hearing is not likely and even if he is granted evidence hearing, the request to suppress evidence to be granted is so slim ......... the retainer is $$$$$$$$$ add a 0 to what Peter's retainer fee. Besides Peter being an EXCELLENT attorney, he thinks outside of the box, he is open minded, he is kind, he is willing to work with you AND he LOVES HIS MOM A LOT!!!!! Peter's love and respect for his mom surpass' the excellence of his stellar work. THANK YOU PETER. THANK YOU PETER'S MOM FOR RAISING SUCH A WONDERFUL MAN AND ATTORNEY.

You bite and you don't let go until you got something out of it. This guy, so called lawyer, put little to no service. I could've done a better job as a commoner, ripping into details and asking questions. This guy, stands back, takes the money, and acts nothing like a lawyer. Lawyer is someone you pay to file complicated forms for you, ask questions (aggressively if need be) in court, try to best support your customer to the best of your ability. This guy, not at all. I'm speaking on behalf of a family friend. Any friends I know in central coast will not be going to this guy. Word of advice to the lawyer, get your sh^t together. Don't get too laid back. People try so hard to fight and trust you to do your best. Very disappointing. Also, you should know, in the 21st century, business thrives via social media reviews. Good luck. People reading this, read my review and the one stars below. It's one star for a reason, not just because we didn't get what we want but because this guy doesn't know how to be a lawyer.

He in no way suggested we take it. In fact, he made it seem we had a very good chance of winning and confused us with information that wasn't fully truthful or accurate. A few years later, now in the appeal process, Scott is telling outright lies about me and my husband. He's claiming I persuaded my husband not take the deal, rather than owning the fact he never recommended it in person or in writing. My husband and all our family and friends will happily verify I always wanted the plea deal, my husband ONLY rejected it because of Scott's counsel. Scott is also making up lies about information he didn't share with us before the trial, during and after. I know lawyers lie to you, but he also will lie about you after your case. He's a smart man, a good lawyer, but a true liar with an ego that's too big. If you hire him, make sure you take any plea deal offered. I'm happy to verify every lie he says about me or my husband in regards to information. ​
