Halley J. Peters
15+ years of legal experience. Criminal defense attorney focused on protecting futures—one case, one family at a time.
I didn't get into criminal defense to process paperwork. I got into it because I saw too many young people—and their families—written off after one mistake. The system can feel stacked against you. My job is to step in, listen to what actually happened, and build a defense that keeps your future open.
That means no judgment in the room. It means explaining every step so you're never in the dark. It means fighting for outcomes that consider school, work, and reputation—not just the next court date. Whether you're a parent worried about your child or someone facing charges yourself, you get the same thing: someone in your corner who cares what happens after the case ends.
I handle juvenile and young adult cases, DUI, drug offenses, and other criminal matters across Michigan and beyond. Every case is different. The constant is this: one mistake shouldn't define the rest of your life, and I'll work to make sure it doesn't.

One mistake shouldn't define the rest of your life. My job is to make sure it doesn't.
