About Peter

I am a partner at Advodan Glostrup Copenhagen, specializing and highly experienced in family law, including divorce and division of property, as well as custody, residence, and visitation rights. I also handle cases involving international child abductions and the placement of young people. I am an experienced criminal defense lawyer, having defended in cases of economic crime, murder, attempted murder, robberies, assault, narcotics, and more. Additionally, I work with property transactions and the drafting of wills.

 

Specialist in family law with a focus on children

I am particularly specialized in assisting families in crisis and conflict. With 30 years of experience, I have a deep insight into and understanding of the difficult situations many families find themselves in when facing a breakup, and decisions need to be made regarding divorce, division of property, custody, residence, and visitation. When children are involved, my primary focus is on what is best for them and how they can best navigate the situation. My approach is to guide you through the entire process, ensuring clarity so you understand your options and are prepared for what is to come. I advise and support you, offer solutions, but also critically address the tough decisions that need to be made. Throughout the process, I ensure ongoing communication with you in understandable language, addressing your questions or any updates in your case, including meetings at the Family Law House and Family Court. As a special area of expertise, I handle cases of international child abduction, both to and from Denmark. As one of the few in the country, I am listed on the Ministry of Justice’s roster of lawyers recommended to handle these cases. Lawyers on this list are appointed based on several criteria, including in-depth knowledge of family law and procedural experience.

 

Experienced in criminal law

Throughout my long career as a defense attorney, I have worked on all types of criminal cases, including economic crimes, such as the case Frimærkesagen involving the production of counterfeit stamps, as well as murder, attempted murder, assault, narcotics, and robberies, including the major DVH case, the largest robbery in Danish history, committed against DVH in Brøndby. I am an appointed defender at the Court of Glostrup, the Court of Lyngby, the Court of Frederiksberg, and the Eastern High Court, but I also appear in courts throughout the country.
