Peter Sankoff took on my case when most would’ve turned away. My request for an appeal came long after the window had closed, yet he saw something others didn’t — a thread of justice still worth pulling. Where other lawyers saw expiration dates and dead ends, Peter saw humanity, context, and the possibility of redemption. Watching him in court was like witnessing controlled lightning — precise, relentless, and purposeful. He doesn’t just defend; he dissects. He doesn’t just speak; he connects. Beyond his remarkable legal mind, there’s a rare quality that can’t be taught: conviction with heart. That combination not only gave me hope for a better outcome, it reminded me that my own rehabilitation, my work in addiction recovery, and my path back into society still matter. To be represented by Peter Sankoff and his team was to feel seen again after years of invisibility. His staff carry the same quiet strength — empathetic, sharp, and fiercely professional. Through them, I felt less like a shameful outsider intimidated by a system, and more like a human being whose story still deserved to be told. Even if the results of my unusual case remain uncertain, I already know the right man was in my corner. Peter Sankoff is a force of nature — the kind of advocate who restores faith not only in the law but in the idea that people can change and still be worth fighting for. If you want a lawyer who will see you — not just your file — then this is the firm you want on your side.
