I am honored to write this recommendation for Peter Hermes of Law Mediation LA who provided me with aggressive, effective, and results-driven representation in my family law case. From the very start, Peter took control of the situation with a strategic and assertive approach, ensuring that my rights werefully protected and that I achieved the best possible outcome.

His ability to stay in control of the process not only protected my interests but also kept my legal costs down—a testament to both his professionalism and his commitment to his clients.

Peter Hermes has a wealth of litigation experience in complex family law matters which he is able to draw upon to successfully mediate disputes.  He is not only an expert in family law, but what really separates Peter from other mediators is that he has a great sense about people.  Unlike many mediators, Peter is not afraid to be direct and has the ability to communicate with and persuade even the most difficult parties to reach a settlement. Peter immediately commands the respect of both litigants and counsel because of his extensive experience and reputation as a preeminent family law attorney, giving him the credibility to make a compelling case to litigants about what is likely to occur if their case goes to trial and why it would be better to reach a settlement through mediation.  I strongly recommend Peter to mediate any family law disputes.

I am Mary Jo, and am pleased to provide a review for my very cherished, respected and awesome attorney, Peter Hermes. I am a former divorce client of Peter Hermes and have known Peter for over 10 years. I know him to be an aggressive, intelligent and fearless lawyer. He is a strategic litigator, with the client's best interest -- case results his main focus and goal. He is honest and insightful. First and foremost he believes (and lives) he has a fiduciary duty to his client.
Peter is compassionate and down to earth. I consider him more than my lawyer -- he is my friend. He is compelled to be the lawyer you hired -- THE BEST. He will fight for you and win!

After interviewing 8 family law attorneys, I chose Peter. It proved to be the Right choice. Peter’s deep experiences in litigating in front of the court, his detailed understanding of the system, his insider knowledge of the judges’ personalities all contributed to a great outcome for me. Peter is protective of his clients and he really cares about getting the best results for them. I appreciate Peter, he's earned my trust and will always be my #1 recommendation to anyone in need of a great attorney in family law!

He who knows the law best wins. That’s Peter Hermes. In this world of churners and self-servers, Peter cuts to the chase.

Peter has represented me on my divorce and other law needs. He’s attentive and is a guy I trust. He’s fiscally responsible, doesn't waste my money and tries to get to a reasonable conclusion and fair settlement quickly.

He looks at things, reads between the lines and finds something that works for everybody.

Peter is not the typical lawyer. Coming from a big firm originally, he knows everybody and does deals on the courthouse steps. I never had to talk to a judge.

I recommended him to anyone looking for reasonable, personable and most importantly effective representation.
