About Peter
Peter Shayman earned his J.D. from DePaul College of Law in 2015. He completed his legal education at a law school known for emphasizing practical skills and courtroom readiness, graduating the same year he entered the profession. The degree provided the foundation for a practice centered on state-level work.
Soon after finishing law school, Shayman began practicing in Iowa. He built his experience handling routine matters that arise for individuals and businesses in the state. Over the years he has worked on filings, client counseling, negotiations and appearances in state venues. He maintains current membership in professional associations relevant to his work.
Shayman’s time in practice has been steady rather than flashy. He has focused on the steady day-to-day work that keeps matters moving: meeting deadlines, preparing documents, and representing clients in hearings when necessary. Colleagues describe him as practical in approach. Clients have relied on him for straightforward guidance on procedural and substantive issues.
At Viner Law Office, Shayman serves as an attorney in the firm’s Iowa office. His role involves advising clients, drafting pleadings and other legal documents, and attending court proceedings. The firm setting has allowed him to collaborate with other lawyers and support staff while handling a caseload of state matters.
Outside the office, Shayman keeps current on developments in Iowa law through continuing education and membership activity. He participates in professional networks that help him stay informed about procedural changes and local practice trends. That engagement feeds back into his daily practice and helps him respond to evolving client needs.
Shayman’s path is typical of many lawyers who focus on state practice: steady accumulation of experience, attention to process, and an emphasis on serving client needs in practical ways. He remains based in Iowa and continues to practice law at Viner Law Office, where he handles a range of state-level matters.
