For those of you that are considering hiring Tom, I would like to share a few things with you. I finished up my trial last February. I was on trial for a list of charges, among those charges were first degree murder of a law enforcement officer along with two other first degree murder charges, a few kidnapping charges, etc. I was fortunate because I had Tom representing me. But I’m not going to lie I was nervous at first because I didn’t trust him. Then we talked and he told me it’s not his job to judge me, it’s to fight for me. And that’s just what he did. From beginning to end he fought. I’ve never in my life had someone fight for me the way Tom did. I don’t know if you’ve ever dealt with lawyers before but usually they file all the paperwork and once everything is done they contact you and let you know what’s going on, so the whole time you’re in the blind. Not with Tom though. He made sure I was involved every step of the way, regardless of the news, good or bad he always told me and he was always honest about it. There were times when I just wanted to quit but he wouldn’t let me. Because honestly what were the odds of me being found not guilty? But that’s what happened. After almost two months of fighting, we won. I guess what I’m trying to say is if you’re looking for someone that’s going to fight for you regardless of your situation, then Tom’s your guy. He’s passionate about his work and puts his all into it. Please trust me when I tell you he’s good at what he does. My name is John Bramble and I was a part of the Smyrna riot case.

Tom was amazing! After seeking advice and visiting multiple attorneys, Me and my fiancee heard of tom through word of mouth. From my first meeting with him he was very easy going he also listened, And after speaking to so many condescending attorneys that was a breath of fresh air. I love that he took my fiancee's thoughts and suggestions into consideration. At trial he was outstanding!!. I was confident on the first day we'd get a "Not Guilty" verdict and we got just that! Great job tom I'm highly recommending you to anyone that is in need of an attorney.

Tom has decades of experience. He was a prosecutor before taking up private practice as a defence attorney. This man will diligently and aggressively push to timely resolve your issues. He is a super star!

Mr. Pederson and staff are awesome, would recommend them to anyone. As well he will stop at nothing to get his clients best wishes. And they communicate very well, never was wondering what was happening always letting us know upfront what can happen. Great job and THANK YOU all very much.

Reliable representation with satisfying results

Got my bond unsecured.

The worst lawyer ever!!! If I could give this lawyer a "no star", I would. Please take heed to my review. This lawyer is a damn joke because my mother paid this joke of a lawyer $1500 to retain him and represent for my brother. He was so nice and made us feel confident. As soon as he got the money, we never heard back from this man EVER! Everytime my mother called the office, she got the secretary and would ask the secretary to get Pedersen to call her back. Never ever got a call from this guy for 2-3 months. Get the joke now, we decided to go with another lawyer and that lawyer said he will contact Pedersen and tell him that he has taken over the case. Pederson decides then to call us. We didn't even bother to call him back. Pedersen you suck! No wonder I'm the only reviewer here because everyone else didn't even bother to waste their time to post one.
