About me

My name is Jan-Thede Peters and I am a lawyer. In my bilingual law office jtPETERS, I focus on advising and representing clients in German and international family law.

I have made it my mission to empathically support people in the particularly stressful situation of separation and divorce and in other family law conflicts and to defend and enforce their rights with full commitment.

I also enjoy dealing with cross-border legal issues. Thanks to my double degree at a German and an English university, I have a deep understanding of both legal systems. This makes it easier for me to deal with international legal matters.

I advise my clients in German and English.

Become a Client // Mandant werden

Every case starts with an initial consultation. During the initial consultation, we discuss your case and you receive an initial assessment of the legal situation and a recommendation on how to proceed. In addition, the initial consultation also serves to allow the client and lawyer to get to know each other. The initial consultation lasts up to one hour. If further legal work is required after the initial consultation, you can decide whether you would like to hire me. I will also decide then whether I can and want to accept the case.

Simply book an initial consultation appointment that suits you.
