About Peter John
Peter John Louie earned his law degree from Liberty University School of Law in 2005 after completing a bachelor’s degree in political science at Grove City College in 2002. He moved into practice after law school and has built a career that spans both criminal and family law matters. His legal training at Liberty provided a foundation in litigation and procedure that he has applied across state lines.
Louie is licensed to practice in Virginia and Pennsylvania. He has been a member of the Virginia Beach Bar Association since 2012 and has maintained active ties to the Virginia State Bar through section memberships. He joined the Virginia State Bar Family Law Section for a period from 2011 to 2012, and he has been listed in the Virginia State Bar Criminal Law Section since 2013. Those memberships reflect an interest in courtroom work and in the rules and practices that govern criminal defense and related proceedings.
He holds a certification as a Christian Conciliator from the Institute for Christian Conciliation. That credential prepares an attorney to serve in faith-based dispute resolution settings, including mediation and conciliation processes that arise in family conflicts and other community disputes. Louie’s certification suggests an ability to work on cases where parties seek alternatives to traditional litigation, and where religious principles figure into settlement processes.
Over the years Louie has practiced under the name Peter John Louie, P.C. He handles matters that range from criminal defense to domestic relations and related post-judgment issues. He appears in state courts and consults on procedural strategy, evidence, and negotiation. His clients have included individuals facing misdemeanor and felony charges as well as people seeking resolution in family law matters. Colleagues describe him as straightforward in court and in client communications; he keeps filings and courtroom presentations concise.
Outside of courtroom appearances, Louie has engaged in bar activities that keep him current on statutory changes and local rules, particularly those that affect criminal practice. He has maintained a practice in the Virginia Beach area while also attending to matters in Pennsylvania as licensure and client needs require. He currently practices at Peter John Louie, P.C., handling criminal defense, family law, and faith-based dispute resolution.
