Great attorney

Pete takes the time to review all the details regarding the case and develops a solid game plan for success. To summarize, my ex wanted continued payments that were not justified, subsequently, Pete got involved and reviewed all the facts. Pete's game plan was perfect and managed a successful outcome.... I've been using Pete for many years because his record of accomplishments is outstanding! If the case needs to go to court, he's exceptional as far as presenting all the facts and making his point. I highly recommend him and his firm.

Excellent lawyer!!!

When I found myself in the market for a divorce lawyer, I knew I had to hire a great one. I interviewed many lawyers before I found Pete Banfe. He was very knowledgeable and put together an excellent team for my benefit. He listened to me and my desires while advising me as to the law. He was kind a...nd always stuck to his task. I felt confident in his defense.He did an exceptional job in preparing an effective document .Pete made sure that I was compensated monetarily and with air- tight written document. My ex did not do what he was required to do so I had to contact him again and Pete handled the ugly aftermath as well. I would, without a doubt, recommend Mr. Banfe if you happen to find yourself in the need for a divorce lawyer.

Thank you so much for your kind words Debby. I truly appreciate the opportunity to have helped you through this difficult time. I am proud of what we were able to accomplish together. There is never any "one size fits all answer" in any representation. I feel that by me understanding what you wanted to achieve and what you wanted to avoid and you understanding the range of what the law will likely allow, we were able to collaborate on the best possible outcome that made sense for you and allowed you to move on with your life.

The closing of a chapter

Many years ago, I had the misfortune of going through a divorce and the pleasure of meeting Mr. Peter Banfe. At the time, he was an up and coming divorce attorney assisting my main attorney. Fast forward a few years and I had suspicions about my ex-wife co-habitating with a man, which was against our... original property settlement agreement. After a short period of time, my ex-wife decides to remarry - hence, no more alimony and child support and no need to take her back to court to repeal the PSA. My immediate thought was to contact Peter and I am glad that I did. He sat with me during our consultation and explained the pros and cons of pursuing the direction of my case. He managed the process efficiently and once the marriage announcement was made, he discussed the relevant terms of the PSA with me that required communicating to the court/judge. It was done efficiently and punctually - everything worked out and as for me, I am not only happy at the closing of the chapter, but in the decision to retain Peter for his guidance, his expertise and his consultations.

First off, I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I've always appreciated the confidence you have shown in me both during the divorce as well as when issues arose more recently. It was humbling that you sought me out all those years later. I am so happy for you that you can now move on with this matter behind you. Most importantly, I'm glad we were able to reconnect after all those years and wish you the best in the next chapter of your life!

Prenuptial Agreement

I contacted and hired Pete to draft a prenuptial agreement. He was straightforward throughout the entire process, beginning with the initial phone call and in person consultation through the signing and execution of the agreement. He told me what to expect throughout the process in the initial consul...tation and he was true to his word. The agreement he prepared was very well written and incorporated everything I requested. His fee was very fair, reasonable and competitive, with no hidden charges or excessive billing. Pete was very responsive throughout the entire process and easy to reach through email and phone calls. I would not hesitate to hire Pete again and I highly recommend him.

Always exceptional!

After representing me with the utmost professionalism during my divorce, when an issue arose 6 years later Pete was able to assist me in handling the situation. As he had done initially, Pete provided guidance and shared every idea he had to help ensure a positive outcome for me. Pete would be my f...irst call in the event of any future events where legal advice or counsel for a family law situation is needed.
