About Pete
Pete Werdesheim built his legal foundation at two major Southeastern universities. He earned a B.S. from the University of Florida in 1998 and completed his J.D. at the University of Georgia School of Law in 2001. The academic record shows a steady path toward practice in Georgia.
Early in his career Werdesheim joined the Atlanta legal market. Records show he worked as a lawyer at Carlock Copeland beginning in 2005. That role placed him in a firm environment during formative years as he developed courtroom and counseling experience. He remained active in professional organizations while advancing through private practice.
In 2017 he established Werdesheim Law Office, LLC. As owner, he took responsibility for both the business and legal sides of the practice. Running a small firm required handling case intake, client relations, and the nuts and bolts of legal operations. Those duties complemented his substantive legal work and shaped the practice he runs today.
Werdesheim maintains several professional memberships. He is a current member of the American Bar Association and of the Atlanta Bar Association. He also holds membership in the Association of Professional Responsibility Lawyers, an organization that centers on ethics and discipline issues in the legal profession. These affiliations indicate an ongoing engagement with professional standards, bar rules, and developments in legal ethics.
He is licensed to practice in Georgia and practices in that jurisdiction. His background combines private firm experience and independent practice. Clients and colleagues have encountered him in both adversarial proceedings and in advisory settings.
Werdesheim’s career reflects steady progression from associate-level work to firm leadership. He has moved from a role at an established firm in the mid-2000s to leading his own office. That trajectory has involved a mix of litigation and regulatory interactions, as well as the administrative responsibilities common to solo and small-firm practitioners.
Today he operates Werdesheim Law Office, LLC in Georgia. He focuses his current practice on matters involving professional responsibility, legal ethics, and related issues arising under Georgia law.
