Peter C. Samouris has been winning criminal cases for over a decade. Mr. Samouris' experience in the field is wide ranging, and covers virtually the entire spectrum of offenses and court proceedings.
That experience has paid big dividends to Mr. Samouris' clients, in the form of great results. For example, Mr. Samouris is one of the few lawyers ever to have obtained dismissal of charges in a Homicide case, at the Preliminary Examination level.
In a high profile case involving a charge of Criminal Sexual Conduct, Mr. Samouris extracted a jury verdict of Not Guilty, in the lightening fast speed of under one hour. The feat was impressive because Mr. Samouris' client was a teacher accused of molesting the child of a Police Officer, and the negative pretrial publicity was fierce.
Mr. Samouris also has an impressive track record in other areas of criminal law as well, including White Collar Crime, Theft Crimes, Fraud, Credit Card Crime, Assault Crimes, Drunk Driving, Probation Violations, Parole Violations, Criminal Appeals and much more.
In addition, Mr. Samouris' negotiation skills are second to none. With courts, juries and lawmakers becoming increasingly "Tough on Crime", excellent negotiation skills are even more important than ever. Many of Mr. Samouris' clients have been elated to see their serious felony charges reduced to simple misdemeanors.
According to Mr. Samouris, the key to his success is an unwavering commitment to hard work, meticulous preparation and thorough knowledge of the law.
