Criminal Law

We can handle all of these matters including bond and bail hearings, parole and probation violations and Protection from Abuses (PFA) hearings. We expunge criminal records and criminal history,.
DUI/DWI
If you have been accused of drunk driving and have been charged with a DUI or DWI offense, you should immediately speak with an attorney. You could be facing a laundry list of penalties including jail, loss of driver's license, a criminal record, heavy fines and probation. You need to know what penalties you are facing now, so that you can plan for your future. Our attorney can inform you of the seriousness of our situation and what options may be available to you such as avoiding jail and keeping your driver's license.
Drug Offenses
A conviction for a drug offense can ruin your life. You may have a defense or if not an option which will avoid jail or a criminal conviction and other loss of freedom. Our attorney can help you in this situation.
Family Law
If you must file a claim for child support, your child is entitled to every penny allowable under the PA Child Support Guidelines. If you are sued for child support, you want to be treated fairly in court and pay only the amount the law requires you to pay. Attorney Pelger can help in both situations. He has 20 plus years of experience in child support and spousal support claims as well as child custody conciliations or trials. If you are wrongly accused under the Protection from Abuse (PFA) statute, Attorney Pelger will stand by you in court and defend your position.
Estate Planning and Probate
There is much to gain from proper estate planning and even more to lose from improper estate planning or no estate planning at all. We can educate you on what legal documents are appropriate for your particular situation and tailor documents to ensure that you or those who inherit from you will not pay unnecessary taxes or fees. These documents will ensure that your hard earned savings will pass to those whom you wish to inherit from you. If a loved one has passed, Attorney Pelger can determine if an estate needs to be opened and if so, guide you through the process to ensure that it is legally resolved.
Personal Injury and Civil Claims
Over the past 20 years, Attorney Pelger has handled numerous personally injury cases. From dog bites, to pedestrian-motor vehicle accidents to slip and falls on dangerous sidewalks or stairs to motor vehicle collisions. The only way to let the insurance company know that you mean business is to move quickly and aggressively with your case from the start so that they know you are prepared to litigate. Only when the insurance company fears that you are capable of getting a high award from them in court will they settle financially with you at a fair amount. Attorney Pelger understands this and handles every injury case, from the very beginning, as if it was going to a jury. Likewise, attorney Pelger can use his civil trial skills to defend you in any civil court or sue on your behalf to recover money, property or other losses.
Real Estate
Attorney Pelger can give you real estate advice and prepare deeds and all documents related to basic property transfers.
