About Peter D
Peter D Morowski built his legal foundation at the University of Texas at Austin, where he completed a Bachelor of Science in economics and anthropology in 2007. He went on to earn a J.D. from Gonzaga University School of Law in 2010. Those collegiate years set a steady pace for a practice that would cross state lines and sectors.
He began his career the year he graduated from law school, joining The Crim Law Office in 2010. That initial role placed him in an environment centered on courtroom work and client advocacy. In 2013 he moved to Ebeltoft . Sickler . Lawyers . PLLC, where he continued to expand his portfolio as a practicing attorney. Four years later he joined Mackoff Kellogg Law Office, taking on new responsibilities and different case types. In 2020 he founded Heart River Legal Services, PLLC and has led that firm since its creation.
Across those moves he added practical courtroom experience and daily office practice. He has maintained licenses to practice in both North Dakota and Texas, allowing him to represent clients across differing procedural frameworks and regional legal cultures. That geographic reach has informed how he approaches case strategy and client communication. It has also required adapting to local rules and expectations in two distinct jurisdictions.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in case preparation and deliberate in courtroom settings. He has handled matters that required testimony, filings, and negotiations. His progression from associate roles at established firms to founding his own practice reflects a shift toward managing client relationships and the business side of a small firm. He has had to balance the demands of casework with running an office and directing the day-to-day operations of a boutique practice.
Clients who seek out his services can expect a lawyer who has worked in a range of firm environments, from a specialized criminal office to regional law firms and now an independent practice. He draws on that sequence of professional experiences when assessing new matters, deciding whether to pursue litigation, settlement, or alternative dispute resolution. He also applies an understanding of the procedural differences between North Dakota and Texas when advising clients about forum choice and process.
Peter D Morowski currently practices at Heart River Legal Services, PLLC, managing cases that arise in the jurisdictions where he is licensed and advising clients on matters tied to those regions.
