Excelling in academics and athletics in high school and college, many teachers and friends felt Pete would rise to the top in any chosen profession. Pete’s former Loveland High School teacher and coach, Tim Partin, said “Pete demonstrated a keen mind, a relentless work ethic and a passion to succeed”. Today Pete represents clients in major litigation of national importance helping to establish the precedents which shape our legal system today and in the future. As the Honorable Jeffrey S.
