Peter S. Wahby: Attorney with Greenberg Traurig, LLP

Biography

Greenberg Traurig Shareholder Peter S. Wahby partners with his clients to develop and implement creative strategies across a broad range of disputes in venues across the country. While some disputes are best resolved with a quick, negotiated agreement, others may require a full adjudication on the merits, or further relief through the appellate courts. Whatever the need, Peter works to develop a value-based approach to ensure that his clients’ business goals are being aggressively pursued while their costs are predictable and controlled. With proven judgment, based on his first-chair trial experience and clerkship at the Supreme Court of Texas, Peter works with his clients to assess how to practically pursue their objectives while maintaining a responsive dialogue throughout the relationship.
