  • I do not recommend Thomas Petrelli.
  • I used Thomas 1-6 months ago.
  • Thomas handled my Divorce / Separation matter.
  • I have previously worked with no lawyers.
Client Review:
My recent experience with Tom Petrelli was extremely dissatisfying because my divorce case was placed on the back burner and was not a priority for him. Tom was not helpful or timely in providing divorce counsel. I highly recommend using a different attorney. His services were over-priced and non-value added.

Lawyer's Comment: This client did not pay their invoices after numerous requests while demanding legal services to be performed on their behalf. Additionally, the client berated the office staff on more than one occasion for not working on her case for free. On account of the aforementioned, we have had to fire the client and the client has taken to the web to disparage me personally.

Uncommonly Good for the Legal Profession

  • I recommend Thomas Petrelli.
  • I used Thomas 1-3 years ago.
  • Thomas handled my Divorce / Separation matter.
  • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.
Client Review:
My experience with Thomas Petrelli was uniquely positive; having had previous experience with Attorneys involving Divorce matters, his approach was informative, patient, and most of all knowledgeable. I found working with Tom made dealing with the issues much more tolerable in an environment which is never pleasant. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone who would ask.

He saved me so much money and gave me peace of mind.

Client Review:
I'm shocked at how fast this whole process happened. Mr. Petrelli was able to make an offer to my spouse and negotiate a deal so that I could see my kids and settle all of our property disputes within two day. I really thought this was going to be a long drawn out process, but he really got the job done. He even opened his office during the blizzard so we could come in and sign the papers. All that is left to do now is wait for the court to process everything and get our decree. I really don't know how to thank him enough. He saved me so much money and gave me peace of mind.

Thank you!!!

Excellent Job!!!

Client Review:
I USED MR PETRELLI FOR MY DIVORCE AND CHILD CUSTODY. I GOT WHAT I WANTED. He is very nice and well mannered. He communicates well but does not over communicate to run up costs. My divorce was completed in a timely manner and at a very reasonable price. I would use Mr Petrelli again for other matters such as wills and support for my children if I need.

Client Review:
Thank You for hooking me up with (Tom & Rick) Petrelli & Vanderslice, Inc. They spoke with me about my legal dispute for over an hour. They were very honest & straight with me about my future options. They are truly diamonds in the rough as far as lawyers go. No fast or double talk, they were compassionate & well thought out about where to go next. Their rates were also very reasonable & I would highly recommend them to anyone I know. I cannot say nicer things about them & their knowledge of the law in PA--but most of all their overall compassion, which you don't find too often in the lawyer field. Bravo! and Thanks Again. Truly AAA++ rating.

Client Review:
I must say, I questioned the thought of going through a web site to find an attorney suitable for my specific situation. I chose Thomas Petrelli. Initially I was apprehensive about the process I was to incur. I thought it would be added exhaustion to an already emotional & difficult circumstance. However that proved not to be the case. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work with two of the finest, professional attorneys in Philadelphia; Thomas J. Petrelli & Richard Vanderslice. They are detail oriented, aggresive, and very patient. I have since referred my sister, and would highly recomend the firm to anyone in need of assistance with any type of family law issue. Thank you!!!
