Mr White stayed the Long Haul of my case and my case was particularly messy... I would dare To Say, by anyone's standards. 7 years in the making (one of those years was a lockdown year) which ground everything to a halt! Every step of the way Mr White gave me sound legal advice that turned out to be spot on. He diligently sorted the facts of the case and brought them to light and when I wanted to take an unconventional route not only did he work his butt off but his family did as well.. and it turned out favorably I don't believe that anyone else would have been able to make that happen without his years of service and his comprehension of the materials and specific case law.. and I believe it was a difficult situation for him as it was such an unusual route he first had to defend that! On top of dealing with the multifaceted case.. I would say that he went above and beyond what he needed to fill the status quo and anyone should deem themselves lucky to have him as their lawyer!

Peter White and Lucy River are truly exceptional workers’ compensation attorneys. From the very beginning, they brought professionalism, clarity, and compassion to a process that can feel overwhelming and intimidating. They took the time to explain every step, answered all my questions, and never made me feel rushed or dismissed. What stood out most was how thoroughly and aggressively they protected my rights while still treating me like a human being—not just a case file. They consistently followed up, communicated clearly, and made sure decisions were made based on my wellbeing and long-term recovery, not just quick fixes. If you are dealing with a workplace injury, PTSD, or any complicated workers’ comp situation, I highly recommend Lucy River and Peter White. They gave me confidence during one of the hardest periods of my life, and I am deeply grateful for everything they’ve done.

I would like to start out by saying working with Peter White was the best experience anybody could ever get with an Attorney. Anytime I ever had questions or needed something he would always respond quickly and answer anything I asked. He not only cares about winning your case for you, but he shows compassion and empathy and that’s very hard to find nowadays. He knows what he needs to do and gets the job done, I couldn’t have asked for anyone better and if there’s another time I need help with a case or friends/family, I will ALWAYS recommend Mr.White. He is your go to guy and you will NOT regret it!

Peter White is an outstanding attorney and exhibits high communication skills, verbal and written; a professional demeanor with clients, families, and colleagues in a court room setting. He is compassionate, an attentive listener, and has the ability to explain complex legal issues to others. I am very pleased with him, and each member of his team. Thank you for being my advocate and winning my case.
