Practice Areas
DUI and DWI Defense
The DUI/DWI defense practice covers Kansas, Missouri, and the greater Kansas City metro area, including Johnson, Wyandotte, and Jackson counties. Cases handled include:
- Felony DUI/DWI charges
- Misdemeanor DUI/DWI charges
- Driving under the influence of drugs
- Aggravated battery DUI
- Administrative license hearings
- Driver’s license defense and reinstatement
The defense approach engages at every stage where the government’s case can be tested. This includes challenging whether law enforcement had reasonable suspicion to initiate the traffic stop, whether there was probable cause to make the arrest, and whether testing procedures were properly administered. Attorney Peer’s NHTSA field sobriety test certification is directly relevant to this last challenge, giving him technical grounding to scrutinize the procedures that produced the evidence against his clients.
Clients have credited the firm with achieving dismissals in cases where other attorneys told them success was not possible.
Family Law
The family law practice handles both the uncontested matters that proceed by agreement and the contested proceedings that require litigation:
- Contested and uncontested divorce
- Paternity actions
- Child custody
- Child support
- Prenuptial agreements
- Guardianship
- Step-parent adoption

Client Focus
Two distinct client populations come to the firm. DUI and DWI clients are often facing a situation they have never encountered before, with criminal charges, license proceedings, and court appearances that can intersect and compound. The firm’s Fourth Amendment focus and technical certification position it to find the weak points in the prosecution’s case. Family law clients are navigating proceedings that reshape their domestic and financial lives, and the practice covers both the straightforward agreements and the contested fights.
Free consultations by phone, video conference, or in-person appointment lower the barrier to getting an honest initial assessment of a case before any financial commitment is made.
FAQ
What is the significance of attorney Peer’s NHTSA field sobriety test certification?
NHTSA sets the national standards for how standardized field sobriety tests are administered. Holding that certification means attorney Peer understands the protocols at the same technical level as the officers who administered them, which allows him to identify procedural errors and challenge test results effectively.

Yes. The defense approach includes challenging the legal basis for the initial stop (reasonable suspicion), the basis for the arrest (probable cause), and the procedures used during testing. Each stage of the police encounter is subject to review.
Can I consult with the attorney before committing to representation?
Yes. Free consultations are available by phone, video conference, or in-office appointment, and every case is handled personally by attorney Peer from the initial consultation through final resolution.
What family law matters does the firm handle?

Closing
A DUI charge activates multiple legal systems simultaneously: criminal court, administrative license proceedings, and potentially civil consequences that follow a conviction. The Law Office of Adam Peer approaches that complexity from a technical foundation, combining NHTSA certification, Fourth Amendment knowledge, and more than a decade of trial experience to find the points where the government’s case does not hold together. That same precision and personal attention carries across the family law practice, where the stakes are different but the need for a lawyer who stays engaged from start to finish is the same.
