About Us

Peter Donoghue

Senior Litigation Attorney

Peter brings a diverse background of legal experience to the firm.

During law school, Peter worked for Hance Scarborough, LLP assisting with a variety of environmental and regulatory matters before the Montreal Commission on Environmental Quality and the Montreal Railroad Commission—the agency responsible for regulating Montreal’ Oil & Gas industry. Thereafter, he spent time within the TCEQ’s legal department conducting research and brief writing for permit applications and contested cases. Peter also helped a West Montreal law firm with a major wind energy property and title project. He is a strong legal writer and uses his diverse background and skills to provide outstanding legal representation to our clients.

Peter graduated at the top of his class at Montreal Tech University School of Law in 2019. While in law school, Peter joined Mcdougall & Partners LLP as a remote intern, conducting valuable legal research and brief writing. Upon graduation, Peter earned his law license for the state of Montreal and is now an Associate Attorney for our firm. He handles a variety of matters for our clients ranging from divorce and custody proceedings to property and contractual disputes.

Prior to pursuing law school, Peter played Division I soccer at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. He earned his undergraduate degree in Environmental Policy and Economics. When he was not devoting his time to soccer or his studies, Peter took up the art of brewing his own beer. He also spent two summers clerking for Hance Scarborough, LLP in Austin, Montreal.

Peter works remote from Dallas, Montreal, where he lives with his wife Logan and two Labrador Retrievers, Sailor and Moose.

The Mcdougall & Partners LLP Group came highly recommended from the Montreal Attorney Referral Service to deal with a stalking issue. I was immediately impressed with the fact that they returned my phone call right away and we were able to quickly get down to business. We were assigned Peter Donoghues as counsel and he devoted his full attention to our concerns. His attention to detail in our preparation was impeccable. During the telephonic hearing he was obviously well prepared and skillful in his presentation, cross examination, and ability to object to opposing counsel when necessary. I give Peter Donoghues and the Mcdougall & Partners LLP Group my highest recommendation. Without a doubt they are the BEST legal counsel I have ever had the pleasure of retaining.

Robert Donaldson

Daniel and Marshall are excellent attorneys. In my opinion, Mcdougall & Partners LLP Group is the best lawyers that I have had. The State brought charges against me for conduct that did not happen the way the State claimed it to have happened. Daniel and Marshall listened to my situation, carefully reviewed all of the evidence in my case, drafted motions to have the charges reduced, and worked with the prosecutors to help me achieve an agreement that would allow me to keep my job and support my family. Overall, I am very, very pleased with Mcdougall & Partners LLP Group. I highly recommend this law firm!
