About Peter

Peter Prak's engineering degree from Columbia University and law degree from NYU bring analytical discipline to complex criminal cases. Colleagues call him the human computer — he can hold the entire factual record of a case and spot the inconsistency that changes everything.

That analytical precision is particularly valuable in cases where the state's evidence relies on technical processes. In DWI cases that hinge on breath test or blood test results, Peter applies the same discipline an engineer brings to measurement accuracy — reviewing calibration records, maintenance logs, chain-of-custody documentation, and gas chromatography protocols. Technical weaknesses in the evidence are not always obvious from a narrative read of the police report; they require the kind of systematic review that Peter applies to every evidentiary challenge.

In complex criminal cases, the ability to hold a large factual record accurately and spot internal inconsistencies — between the officer's report and their testimony, between different witnesses, between the documented evidence and the state's narrative — is what can change an outcome. Peter's background means that when the record is large and the details matter, Texas Defense Team has an attorney who can command that record completely.

Peter Prak handles criminal defense and DWI cases across all five counties Texas Defense Team serves: Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop, and Bexar. In Bexar County specifically, where DWI cases often involve sophisticated state evidence from mobile blood draw programs and dedicated prosecution resources, Peter's analytical background applies directly.
