My thoughts are very much like those posted by Susan on Nov. 20, 2017. But for our son, whose troubles during a school-based field trip resulted in having to address two different municipal juvenile courts, as well as the school administration, Peter was simply superb. The complexity of the situation presented quite a challenge, and at no time did I feel doubtful of any step and consultation that Peter took. Moreover, I shall be forever grateful having him stand by my son's side, literally before two different benches and figuratively in his guidance as he showed respect and confidence in my son's ability to face his situation with honesty. There are other layers to the situation, not least of which was adolescent identity issues. Suffice it to say that Peter was the expert we needed, and a confident role model we very much needed at the time.

We met Peter by accident in the halls of the district courthouse, when the school system brought us and our 14-year old daughter before the judge due to school refusal. Middle school was a traumatic experience for her socially; a brilliant child (with purportedly mild autism) she gained 60 pounds her first year and developed OCD. Her inability to attend was seen as bad behavior / poor parenting, and noone asked "Is this an appropriate education?", until we met Peter. He referred us to a neuropsych specialist, and helped us take the school system to court to secure an outside placement. She is now a community college graduate and seeking her 4 year degree at school in Boston. Not to be dramatic, but it is likely that this course of action saved her life. Thanks Peter!

My daughter was suffering from depression and other serious ailments. Rather than assist us, the school district took legal action against her, accusing her of fabricating the whole thing to avoid having to go to school, and then suggesting me and her mother were somehow a part of this crazy scheme. We hired an advocate to advise us, and the first piece of advise she gave us was to call Peter Hahn. My daughter and I met with Mr Hahn, brought him up to speed on our situation, and he took it from there. Our next meeting in court went very different than prior interactions. Because of Peter Hahn's legal expertise, the high school was falling over backwards to make up for their gross negligence in assisting my daughter through her ailments. My daughter has since graduated high school, earned an associates degree from Quinsigamond Community College, and currently attends Fitchburg State University. Thank you, Peter Hahn!

It was pretty much a parent's worst nightmare when our son ran into trouble with the law. We needed an attorney with expertise in both juvenile law and special education, and we found him in Peter Hahn. Peter treated our son and us with professionalism, dignity, and respect and was able to help us resolve the situation better than we expected. Peter is personable, intelligent, and witty which helped to make the extremely difficult and emotionally stressful situation easier to bear. I recommend him highly to anybody who wants to insure that all of the details are handled thoroughly, diligently, and sensitively when they need legal representation.

Peter was instrumental in guiding my family through some very difficult times. He is professional, diligent, thorough and fastidious in his work. I can not thank him enough. He truly respected my son and myself in all our contact. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Peter is very smart and very skilled. I found him to be extremely responsive. What I found perhaps most impressive was how quickly he was able to gain and maintain my son's trust in him. He was always respectful, explaining complicated legal issues clearly , always making sure that my son truly understood what was happening. Working with adolescents requires great sensitivity, and Peter demonstrated this consistently.

Peter Hahn represented my son in an elder juvenile case in Cambridge and he was precise thorough and never missed a step. He caught all the errors, made the right calls, followed up, and kept us informed at all times. he is a brilliant attorney and deserves all the accolades. I would highly recommend him..

Mr. Hahn was the best lawyer that my son could have had. He kept us informed of all his rights and let us know what was going on at all times. He was very straight foward, always told us what we were up against and always explained everything so that we both could understand. He is very knowledgeable and very personable. I would recommend him to any one that I know. My sons case was dismissed thanks to all his hard work and dedication. Both my son and I felt that although this was a very hard time in our lives we were gratful to have met him and we will be greatful to him forever. He is truley a great person and a great lawyer.
